well i'm close with my mom. and i can tell her when my boyfriend and i get into stupid fights or stuff like that. i can talk to her about how to handle those type of situations and get the advice i need. she's not the type that'll tell me what i want to hear, she'll flat out tell me whose wrong in the situation. the only problem is that my boyfriend and i have had a lot of stupid fights and now i don't think my mom likes him very much..he said that all his friends mom's and ex-gfs moms love him and i don't understand why my mom doesn't =( it's like ever since i told her everything she just doesn't trust him or something. i really want her to like him and have trust in him because there is no reason she shouldn't. what should i do? we haven't gotten into stupid fights recently which is really good but i just want my mom to love my boyfriend and i don't know how to do that. he even talks to my mom and hugs her when he sees her & is leaving my house. he's a gentleman she just thinks there's another side to him, but there's not. ughh i need help!

My mom used to love my boyfriend, but once I began asking her for advice on the fights we had, she began to not like/trust him. What I did was I just told her all the good things about him, like when he held the door open for me, and when he surprised me with flowers. All the sweet things he does, so that way when you do have a fight and need advice from your mom she won't be so quick to not like him because she will remember all the good things he does for you and how well he treats her daughter. Worked for me!
