i'm not a nice person. dont give me advice like "omg just lyk act nice." yeah i think ive tried that before thanks.
so yesterday i went shopping all day with my mom. it was so much fun and i enjoyed it a lot. but then later that night her boyfriend came over, watched a movie with her, and slept over. so then the next day is mothers day (today) and im like "mom c'mon its mothers day. i dont want to spend mothers day with my mother and her boyfriend. i just want to spend it with my mother." actually i dont think i said that. it was more "why cant he leave" but whatever.
anyways she said thatd "itd be rude to say he cant come to brunch with us" so i unwillingly went to mothers day brunch with my mom and her boyfriend and i ignored them whenever they said anything to me and i figured hed leave after brunch. but no. then they went to go buy a grill while i stayed home watching will and grace.
so they came back from buying a grill like 3 or 4 hours later and my mom is like "whats wrong why wont you smile or talk" and i said "because i dont like your boyfriend. hes wasting your time." (they've been together for 6 years and he refuses to propose and i just think she deserves better.)
anyways so today me and my mom planned to see 'baby mama' because it seemed fitting for mothers day. well, i told her i didnt want to go. and then she asked what kind of pizza i wanted and i said i didnt want any.
its mothers day. and my mom deserves so much better. i should accept her boyfriend being here and just treat her nicely but i cant seem to do that.
sorry its so long but i thought the story needed to be said so you can see how awful i really am before you give me advice on what to do about my terrible attitude i always give people.
happy mothers day. (link)

its hard to judge wether youre a horrible person from just one event, but in this case i dont see why youre a bad person at all. i mean, yeah, the things you said sound a bit harsh, but its the reason why you said them that compensates that.
you dont like your mothers boyfriend. does she even want to marry him? i mean six years is a loooong time for a relationship, and from what i have seen most divorced couples dont want to marry again because they think the whole marriage thing is jinxed.
why would she deserve better if the guy wants spend 4 hours with her buying a grill? who wants to buy a grill? who would volunteer for something lame like that? I know i wouldnt, and neither would my dad. + will&grace is 10000x more fun than grill shopping in my opinion.
you obviously like your mom a lot, and you're kind of jealous of the time she spends with her boyfriend. So yea, there is something wrong with you, but unfortunately its nothing special. Try telling your mom what you wrote down here, not trying to be dr. Phil here but tell people how you feel before giving them attitude. Sometimes people really appreciate that kind of honesty and this way they can understand your feelings better.
good luck.
