I too have a mental illness so I know what it's like. I've hated meeting girlfriends' parents, because they tend to be a bit judge-y. Just tell your mom why you love him and about all of his good qualities, and hope for the best. No matter what happens, I'm sure that your boyfriend won't hold it against you.
]
Explain to your mom he has a mental illness.
Tell her not to behave as she usually does,that itmakes you uncomfortable.
If she embarrasses you tell her in private of something.
Let your boy friend be normal as he usually does
]
Just tell your mom how you feel? Let her no about your boyfriends condition. Tell her how much you care about him and you want this to be perfect.
]
Ask her not to be mean. Warn of her of what to expect.
Warn your boyfriend of what to expect. Apologize profusely.
After they met, thank your mother if she behaves. Tell her percisely what she did wrong if she doesn't.
There is no lying or pretending here. He's your boyfriend - he's going to have to learn to deal with your mother. No matter how crazy she is. Don't worry about stopping EVERY possible nasty thing she might do or say, just focus on the big ones and ask her to behave. If she does, thank her.
Warn your boyfriend, and then bring him over. It probably wont be as bad as you think. And even if it is, it had to happen sooner or later.
