Q: Okie, here's a little background...my guy and I have been dating for almost 11 months, and we're really serious.
Recentlyish, my mom's been focusing on EVERY little "mistake" my guy makes. For instance, today he was late picking me up for school and she kept saying "I hope he's really coming, because you missed the bus and I'm not driving you." and stuff like that., and I wanted to smack her...Lol. I HATE that she keeps doing this. She takes the tiniest things, like lateness, or the way he's so tight with money and turns them into huge flaws.
I pointed out to her that she makes me think she doesn't like him, and she tells me she's just "looking out for me" and "making sure I see things/the whole picture". Honestly, the only thing I see wrong with him is that he snores on his back...
My guy also thinks my mom has issues with him, and I suggested maybe HE should talk to her about the impression she's giving off, but I doubt he'd do it unless I bothered him about it enough.
The thing is, I've been really careful with this relationship and am able to take myself out of the picture and see what's going on because I want it to work more than anything.
The confusing thing is, mom says she actually likes him. I don't understand her. How do I get my mom to shut up?
my mom is the exact same way, she wants to know EVERY DETAIL OF MY LIFE. it can get so annoying! just tell her to back off a little. i said that to my mom and she was kind of mad at me for a while but she got over it. i think you should just be like 'stop putting my boyfriend down because he feels bad about it and so do i. you can have your opinions but just settle down a little because he is really important to me'. i know it sounds cheesy..lol...but just say something sort of like that..i think it would work..hpe i helped and let me know how it goes!

I'll try it again...maybe she'll get the message if I repeat myself. Lol. Thanks =)
