Example we went to see Creed ll and if I was with the girls she would have just said enjoy or whatever but she made a passive aggresive comment about it being a sports film and asked sarcastically if it was my choice.

If that is the only time they've met then there's plenty of opportunity to fix it. Even if it takes a bit of overdoing it like "Omg, LOOK what he's done for me for Christmas!!" Last edited by Marsh.; 05-12-2018 at 10:32 PM. |

I've no idea on how far in you are with your relationship but you clearly know your boyfriend better than your mum, your mum veeerry likely just had a bad first impression with him. Also I could only guess there's an inkling of "my daughter deserve better!" and her wanting you to have what's best, and even if he is the best for you (I feel bad using 'if' but as I say, I don't know him) your mum wouldn't know that
what matters is your happiness. And besides, some people that don't like each other end up being the best of friends. Who knows, your mum and boyfriend may become the best of friends |

I get the protective part but it doesn't feel like that it feels petty with some of the comments she makes and I have only ever had one long term relationship and my mum still talks to him as far as I know and he cheated on me so she's not exactly the type to draw blood if anyone hurts me if that makes sense.

Maybe more likely, it just sounds like she thinks he's a prick. Because "cocky" isn't always bad... if it helps to raise your self-esteem, that's a good thing. As long as you feel it's in healthy balance with your own personality and he's not domineering with you. Maybe your mother can see things you can't, so I wonder could that if you have a close relationship. After all, it's a bit different when he is just a friend... relationship material is a different story. I had a male best friend who I was attached with nearly daily for about a decade and he came and went from my family's home. We would take bus trips downtown and do all kinds of traveling... but had we ever got into a relationship, I don't think my family would've approved. We were too brother-sister like... keeping in my mind, my husband was never threatened when we were dating with how much time we spent to gether. Probably because yes, we argued too much... like brother and sister... |

If you are close to your mum you should be able to talk to her...ask her why she thinks he is cocky..and tell her how much you like him and how he makes you feel. Tell her it's unfair that she hasn't given him a chance and ask her to do it for you.
Every parent wants the best for their children...maybe she has heard things about him that she doesn't like.. Ask her to give him a chance...and take it from there. If she sees how happy he makes you she might change her mind. We all want our kids to be happy...but sometimes you can be blinded 'by love' and not see what is blatantly obvious to those who care about you. |

It’s also clear you did not quote everything I said only one part that you think makes you right. You called Amy a young girl, when in reality she is an adult, anyways continue with your life on the forum however I have a real life in the real world. My own daughter who is twenty four and autistic is currently having mental health problems which have escalated to her screaming and shouting and hitting herself violently around the head. We have not slepted for more than three hours a night for weeks while we are waiting on the mental health service I rang the crisis team tonight as she begged to be taken to a secure unit, only for someone to tell me he can come out but with no meds, so yea I got a bit on my plate so forgive me if I don’t continue with the rather pointless chat. |

If you have too much on your plate why respond at all?
Because it's clearly you trying to score "morality points" and make it all personal. Oh, look, sheriff has a real life and real problems. Yeah, we all do. But I don't come in here looking for sympathy for it because someone used the word "girl", yeah that's right "girl", not "young girl". Don't DARE presume to know anything about me or what I deal with off this forum and then give me a self pitying paragraph expecting sympathy! Do one! Last edited by Marsh.; 06-12-2018 at 02:07 AM. |

If this is really out of character Amy, is there any way your mum could have seen / met / know of him before. It seems an intense dislike and if she's not like this with other guys you've dated could she know something about him that she's not telling you. I would sit down with her and have a chat and ask her to be honest. Tell her you really like him(if you do) and thats its important to you for her to give him a chance.
Hope it works out x

If you're happy she should let it be, it's not her place to try and decide your relationships for you
