If he's 18 he's a man and not a boy. You are 14. Show your mother respect when you talk to her about it but let her know that you don't want to be with him. Maybe you could tell her you are not interested in guys older than 16 or something.
As far as being interested in someone she doesn't like, try to figure out why she doesn't like him. She may be right about him. And just remember that there will always be more boys but only one mom. [ imalice's advice column | Ask imalice A Question ]

Ok, sorry sorry. But it sounds a bit risky to me, you know how these 18 year olds are.
Anyways, back to the real question.
If you dont like him in that way then of course you have to tell your mom. However Im not sure what your relationship is like between you and her, so it could be difficult doing so, right? But shes your mother, and all teenage girls argue with their moms. Your mom should respect you and your opinion and not continue hassling you to date a guy if you tell her straight that you do not want to and give a few good reasons why.
Honesty is the best policy.
And you'll feel better telling her (as long as it doesnt cause a fight, of course)
In general, you know your mother, I dont. So I reckon that you should decide what to do, but think about the bigger picture.
What will the consequences be?
