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 dont wanna do it person))

Maybe you should just explain to his mom, that maybe what you did was a mistake to HER but what you did was the right choice for YOU. That might not be such a good idea maybe if shes really stubborn (which she seems) So maybe you could just tell her that she has every right to be protective about her son, but maybe you had a good reason to go to prom with this other guy and that you're sorry that it upset her and that you promise to make better choices in the future!!! (Just dont make it sound like you're angry)
Best of luck!!!

Did you like this guy you went to prom with first, or did you like LBB ( Little baby boy since thats the only ref to him you made, so I'll refer him as so.) first? Maybe you liked the other guy first but after prom you just didn't seem to like him... so you noticed LBB and started dating him?
Try explaining that to him... that you were going with that other guy first and not him. If he can't respect you just because you didn't go to prom with him instead of the LBB guy, he really doesn't deserve a girl like you.
When it comes down to parents.... just try to be as friendly as possible no matter what. Eventually they'll catch on. Most of them do, anyway -.-
If you want to tell her why, you might try asking LBB. He could relay it to her somehow in a different way than you could, since she isn't angry with him or anything.
