What does proxy mean in a relationship?

I am a 21 year old from the United States and I have been with my boyfriend of one year, which has been great.

It is true I don't feel as happy as he does in our relationship but that is something we live with.

I have made the choice to be with him because I love him more than life itself. However, every now and then he makes me question what I am getting myself into. One such occasion has happened after a fight. My dad has come to stay and I couldn't stop crying. That morning my mom told me that she had met someone and was interested in dating again. She was going to ask my dad if it was OK for her to date him. I became so frustrated that I ran up to my room and yelled at the walls why would she keep meeting guys? Do I need to go talk to him and tell him? My boyfriend just stood there watching. That afternoon I told my dad to wait because I had gotten upset at my boyfriend over a fight and told him not to move, so he waited around 5 hours for me to get over it and then left on a business trip and only returned once more before my mom returned. Now my boyfriend is extremely patient but at that moment I got to feeling as though he was doing nothing! I'm still in love with my boyfriend, even though he hasn't had an emotional outburst like that since I started seeing him a year ago. What does this mean about my relationship in the future and is it something I should worry about?
