Parents & Boys
Hey there,
How can I get my mom to like this guy that I'm starting to get real close with. She's only met him once but I can tell that she doesn't like him. She thinks that he is meaning something different when she asks him a question. Like he said how people at work like him because he always talks to them so she thinks that he's just charming me too. How can I get her to open her mind a little bit more because he's completely opposite from my last boyfriend...

It's kind of hard in your case. I ran into very similar trouble. I'm a natural born rebel, so my theory was that "Let Mom thinks what she wants to think. I like this guy, and I know the truth. It's her own fault for not believing it. Let her think about it. The only thing she can do to me is tell me she doesn't like him. She doesn't control how I feel. I'm going to keep liking this guy, and if we have to run away one night to Mexico to get married, fine. She can't stop me." Not the most brilliant idea, but I never did run away to Mexico, *phew*. I really have no idea what to tell you TO do, but I have a great example of what NOT to do. Sorry!

I think you just need to sit down with your mom and tell her what he really ment. Tell her that he means a lot to you and that you want to hang out with him and stuff. Just talk to her about him. She should give him another chance before she judges him.

Tell your mom about his personality traits and what yall have in common and what you like about him. Just tell her tyhe truth because if she cared about your happiness then she'd at least ettempt to like him. But if she doesn't then let it go because you shouldn't let the way other people fell n think affect the way you do.

I kind of had/have this problem. My mom thought my guy was purely a charmer, and totally fake. That's until we had a flood in our basement, and he came back with me after my choir concert to help my parents mop up the floor. Now they love him. Lol.
Have your mom go with you and your guy to dinner or something. Out somewhere. Get them talking. I did that to get my guy and my dad to get to know each other. It was really effective. Give it a shot. Need more help, don't be afraid to ask for it.

well shes proly just feeling defensive over her daughter which is totally normal u gotta understand that. but if you really want her to see this guy differently have her meet him again. have him over or something a few times to get her used to him maybe she'll change her mind if he really is a good guy. tell her about good or nice things hes done. be open w/ her and she'll be more willing and trusting
