Hi there,
I know that it's hard to understand your mother's intentions at this moment, but my best suggestion would be to listen to her - she probably sees something in your former best friend that you don't just yet! I remember when my own mum banned me from seeing a guy friend, turns out he did have some pretty serious issues and I'll be forever grateful to what my parents did for me. You're only 12 and your life's only beginning to bloom, don't be too worried over one guy at this point. If you really did appreciate his friendship, you can still say hi to each other in the halls! Hope this helps,
- Yiterra

Listen to your mum on this one. My mum used to tell me the same when I was your age, saying that she didn't want to me to be best mates or going out with boys. I was upset by that but looking back i realised that she was just protecting me and that the guys that I thought I liked, I would not have lasted with at all.
Enjoy being 12 and don't get too involved with guys and I agree with the comment below, if you ever want to go out with guys, go on group dates, they are safe and your mum will feel better about the situation.

I'm going to go along with the others and agree that you are to young to be dating your only 12or as my kid use to say a betweener. To young to be a teenager and to old to be a real kid.
I'm also going to guess that the guy is maybe a couple of years older than you. Mom is only looking out for you and in a few years you will understand and thank her.
When it comes to dating be patient. You won't be an old maid if you don't have a steady boyfriend for a few years. Group dating is the best and safest way to date for a few years. You can still go out and have fun without the worries of a guy being all hands.
So relax an wait until you are mature enough in body and spirit to handle dating properly. Just a side note here: If most fathers had their way, our daughters wouldn't be allowed to date until they're 30.lol So stick with mom, she has been there and will guide you correctly.

You are young, Your mother is looking out for your best interest. This boy is smart and he should be respecting your mothers rules. At 12 you shouldn't be focused on boys. Wait a few years, Don't be in a hurry to rush things.

You are 12 years old. Mom always knows best, though I know you don't want to hear that. Your also too young to be dating and obviously this kid has brains to respect your mother's orders. Maybe overtime you can talk to your mom about talking to him again if you go so long without talking to him.. she can maybe see you can handle a friendship with him.
But again your 12, don't try to rush into something. Down the road you don't want so much baggage of old boyfriends and 10,000 heartbreaks.
