Girlfriends Mother


Question Posted Sunday October 29 2006, 8:47 pm

We'll i have been going out with this girl britney for about four months, but we have been talking for a little over three years. We'll me and her dad ahve become great friends and talk, and sometimes we even hang out with out britney there. Just chill like some sweet ass dude's. lol, we are cool. We'll i have only seen her mom a few times because she is a nurse and is barely ever home. she seems kind of ignorant, but yeah. and we'll personally i think she hates my guts!! when i'm there and she comes home she never says hi or anything to me she just ignores me. sometimes i try to make conversation and stuff,but i just keep thinking she hates me!! what do i do?

Keep, keep, keep, keep talking to her mother. Seriously. The more she gets to know you, the more she will open up. Remember, parents can be a little protective of their children, ESPECIALLY their daughters. The key is be genuinely interested in her as a person. Ask her questions about her job. Ask her if she has favorite patients. Ask what made her want to be a nurse. Ask her anything you can, and look and act interested in what she has to say. Chances are, she only knows you as some kid who could potentially be destroying her daughter. So just talk to her.

It could be really simple. I don't think she hates you. I think it is a simple matter of her coming home from a long day @ work. Her job as a nurse can be brutal and it doesn't matter whether she works in a hospital or doctors office. If it's a hospital she is dealing w/highly charged emotions all day long. She's drawing blood, taking samples from people who really don't want all this done to them, but have to take it because the doctor has ordered it. Supervising and even tending to bed changes, emptying bed pans, dispensing medications, changing puss and blood filled bandages, bathing bed ridden patients, and throughout all of this she maintains a chipper attitude to help friends and family through this difficult time. It isn't that she doesn't like you, it's just she wants to come home, take her shoes off and relax, w/o someone who she doesn't know being there, so she can just be herself. She's feeling a bit intruded upon. What you might want to do is, w/a cheerful voice, always greet her and always be kindly towards her. Don't let your aggravation show. Don't worry about whether she is greeting you or not, just cheerfully greet her when she comes home. She will eventually come around and be more accepting.

Namaste!

Umm, first i wouldnt call her ignorant. Nobody likes to be insulted, and if she knows you say bad things about her i wouldnt blame her for not liking you.You do know that means she doesnt know something, but a nurse cant be uninformed. Just because she ignores you doesnt mean shes ignorant. Try asking Britney, because if her mom doesnt like you she will surely tell Britney. If she doesnt like you, then you need to talk to her about why. If its a good reason, compromise but if the reason is unreasonable, ignore her.
