I don't think 'hate' is the proper word. I believe the mothers are paternally concerned that their baby will be properly cared for as they were when she was raising him.
If the mothers find that they can trust the girl to be also a 'mother' to their boy, then I guess they can be adored also.

It's one of the hard truths of life, it's how life is. It's hard for a mother at times to admit to herself that her son has become a grown man who has such feelings and needs, for the mother he is and always will be her lil baby, no matter what. A she will have to let the son make space for another important woman in his life, she will not be anymore the no.1 woman in the son's life. And whenever the son would talk or bring the girlfriend home, it would remind her of this hard truth. But it doesn't necessarely happen in every case. I have seen mothers who get along VERY well with their son's gfs.

Parents want the best for their children.
Usually, they forget that young folks lack the life experience to make them wise.
Some Girlfriends, have not been through life enough to be consider wise, usually take 40 to 50 years, or some traumatic episodes.
Parent's worry a lot, so tend to be over protective. Once they become Grandparent stage, usually they relax during that stage.

Mothers always love their children very much, and wish they get the best in
life. Only, sometimes they get overpossessive. But deep in their hearts this obssession is purely to protects children going astray.
That why the first few meeting with the girlfriend are always cold reception.Only when they realise that the girls are worth their mettle,
mothers start to welcome them, and look from anew angle ie, daughter inlaw.
Please, neverhave misgivings about Mother. She has seen life inso many ways, with difficulties & experience, thats why this OVERCARING, which you
are interpreting as hate.

I don't hate my son's girlfriend, but I know that there are a lot of possesive mothers out there that try to run their children's lives. Come on women, there are some things that just isn't any of your business

I don't think its HATE that they have against us. I think the most important thing to them is how we impact their son's life. Like...are we corrupting them or are we turning them into that sweet little boy that once was.

Talk about jealousy. There is no woman more jealous than a mother, especially those with only one son.

this is an easy one. if the mother has an unhealthy attachment to her son, thou art f*****. If not, she will accept you warmly, and then let him know behind your back what she thinks, be it positive or negative. She will remain objective and impartial to allow him to experience HIS life, giving advice only if asked, if there is no "mommys little boy" conflict.

that is not necessarily true. when i was dating my boyfriend at the time, his mother really adored me. he told me that out of all her (3) sons' girlfriends, i was the only one she liked. okay... so maybe it's true that mothers don't really like their son's girlfriends. but, it wasn't true with my case.
