AdviceMistress answered Wednesday April 25 2012, 9:57 am: I wouldn't worry about it too much. You boyfriend's mother probably just wants to make sure you are treating her son right. She just wants whats best for her son. It's probably like your parents making sure that your boyfriend is treating you well. I'm sure she doesn't hate you. Have you given her a reason not to like you? Have you been disrespectful? Have you pushed her?
If you haven't then I'm sure it has nothing to do with you and just continue to be nice and respectful. Don't worry about it! :) [ AdviceMistress's advice column | Ask AdviceMistress A Question ]
LM answered Tuesday April 24 2012, 1:41 am: Your boyfriend is probably telling the truth. I always thought my ex's mom hated me, but never actually asked. We're still friends and I brought it up once day, and he said that his mom actually really did like me, haha. So my gut feeling was totally wrong - and it usually isn't.
Assuming your boyfriend is close (or reasonably so) with his mother, he will probably value her opinion and only want to date a girl she approves of. If you trust your boyfriend, trust what he's telling you.
If there's a particular incident making you think that she doesn't like you, ask him about it, but otherwise accept his answer and don't nag him about it.

If I were you, I would get her a "summer springy gift basket" With things in it such as soaps, candles, bubble bath salts, some FANCY truffle/chocs, maybe a summer nail polish tone, like coral, and etc, with a note that says:
<BR>
"Hope you have a relaxing summer! Thank you so much for all the dinners and the hospitality you've shown me! Best, ___"
<BR><BR>
Then, if she doesn't like you at least she will say "Hey, this girl is a genuinely kind girl..she put so much thought into this basket." She's gonna think you're sweet, not trying to suck up. When someone truly makes a genuine offer or attempt at friendship, it will be recognized.
And if she does love you like your bf claims, then she will only love you MORE!
Good Luck:) xx [ dolphina's advice column | Ask dolphina A Question ]
