hey i have a question me and this guy are going out and like his family like his parents like arent the fondest of me like she is holding something against me. see me and this other guy went to prom together and the guy im going out with now is obviously pretty bummed about this so his mom is constantly holding this against me and just wont gimmie a 2nd chance! So i plan on writing her a letter. I need some help on what to say to her. Like explaining why i did go. I went because he proved 2 me it was so important and that he wanted to go with me. Well this guys mom (my bf) is obviously protecting her "little baby boy"... well trying. but i cant tell her why i wanted cuz she'd hate me more. So please help!
i_define_weird answered Friday May 20 2005, 7:34 pm: I think you should talk to her face to face instead of writing a letter to her. She might respect you for that more. It shows that you want to talk to her about your boyfriend and that you really care that you want your relationship to work with your boyfriend as well as with his mom. Just tell her how you feel. That you never intended to hurt your boyfriend or anything. Tell her that you think she's not very fond of you. Let her explain to you why she acts this way towards you. good luck && hope i helped.

all i can say is talk to your partner's Mother and i wouldnt recommend saying that ( i went because he proved 2 me it was so important and he wanted to go with me ) this statement shows immaturity that you don't really like him, you are just going with him because he proved himself,
if you try comunicating with his mum, tell her how much you really like her son, show her some respect , even when it seems she's in the wrong,
i don't think she hates you she knows women because she was also young try and understand from her point of view this is no consulation
but i suggest you talk to her

He is probably 10 billion times more bummed about it than you think he is, having to live with a mom like that. I don't really know what you should put in your letter, but just don't sound arrogant because that will put her on the defensive and that's exactly what we don't want. Just get mushy I guess and complement her beautiful, wonderful son, (I usually condone suck ups but it may work this time if you do it subtly) but at the same time, maybe ask what is it about you that she doesn't seem to like.
