My boyfriend and i haven't been together for very long. He has already met my mom and my niece. But i haven't met any of his family. Which isn't a problem because i know i will in time. Despite the fact that i have never met his mom, she doesn't like me. We are both 18. When we first started talking, he showed her my pic and she said i was cute, but since i've been dating him she has given him a midnight curfew (he's never had a curfew before) and given him a time limit as to how long he can talk to me. (she pays his cell phone bill and says he can only talk after nine. But also has to get off at 10) He even told me that she doesn't like me. I can understand that this is her only son/ only child. But i dont think it's fair for her to judge me without even makin an effort to get to know me. Do you have any ideas as to how i can make this situation easier?

Give it time. Don't try too hard. DOn't worry bout it. You are not there to impress her. It doesn't matter. Just live your life with your bf, and talk to her if you have to. Don't be bitter. Just be friendly but not too nice.

If both of you are 18 what is the deal? He shouldn't have a curfew. Period. The cell phone thing is understandable if she pays his bill I suppose but the rest is ridiculous.
I'm 17 and dating a 16 year old and I STILL don't know for sure if his mom likes me-she acts friendly enough but sometimes....eh....I don't know. She's a single parent of two boys and he's her oldest (IE: first to let go....). She most likely sees me as a threat of some kind and that's what your boyfriend's mom probably sees you as....someone that while may love her child may also make it easier for him to move away from momma and may break her baby's heart. I'd try to get to meet her, maybe pick her up some flowers and say you're very glad to meet her. Don't try to overimpress her or flatter her, that might make it worse. >_< Someday when we all have kids we'll feel the same I'm sure. :)

you sound like a very nice girl and If your boyfriend loved you, you would have already met his mom if he is serious about you. maybe you should ask him why you have not met her since he has met your mother. What does your mom think about him.
