tell her you feel uncomfortable about it. and that you understand she's upset and can be vulnerable but dating guys that you should be dating wont help her..

If I wasn't too weirded out by it, I'd talk to one of the guys she's dating. Just to kind of find out what makes them attracted to each other. Then maybe you can steer your mom in the right direction by helping her find something else that will give her what she's looking for.For instance, she might feel vulnerable or insecure around older guys with the ability to take advantage of her, as was done in said abusive relationship. Maybe find a guy that your mom feels comfortable around - someone who she already knows maybe, and get them to go on a casual date of sorts. Whether you have to talk him into asking her out or not. If this is bothering you as much as you say, you might have to work on it from both sides.If the problem's deeper, she may need some kind of counseling to get her out of this phase, and to help her move on from her old relationship.
