Q: He’s a mama’s boy and his mom doesn’t like me. What do I do?!
Well, to be honest, there’s nothing you really can do about this one. Even though this is a sensitive issue, it doesn’t mean that it has to affect your relationship with her son in a negative way. If you did nothing to disrespect her, then the issue truly lies between your boyfriend and his mother. Remember, collegiettes, you are not dating his mother!
Personally, I would continue being polite and respectful whenever you see her, and be polite and respectful towards your boyfriend in her presence. Make sure you dress appropriately as well because a tight dress could send off the wrong vibe. She could possibly think you aren’t “the right girl” for him, but let’s get real – who is she to think that? She’s his mother, not his keeper, and the only person’s feelings that matters comes from your boyfriend. As long as you’re sweet and polite, there’s nothing you can she can say or do to prove otherwise.
Now, as for your boyfriend, I would discuss this issue with him since he is a “mama’s boy.” His mother clearly means a lot to him, so if you had a loving relationship with his mother, it would mean a lot to him as well. You are both grown, so try to come to a mutual understanding and promise each other that other people’s opinions won’t affect your feelings towards each other. At the end of the day, as long as you both make each other happy, are honest with each other, and have fun together, his mother will eventually see that and realize there’s nothing should can do to stop that.
