I don't have this problem yet really, but it could possibly become one. My BF's mother seems to have a pre-conceived notion of the "type of person" I must be to have been married twice in the past. I have no kids, lead a good life, make a good living etc. She does not think I'm good enough for her son (who has never been married). She doesn't know me and I plan on just being my usual self around her. I always get along with the parents so this is all new to me. Has anyone ever had the parents of the person you love negatively impact your relationship?

Nope, I'm perfectly capable of making my own decisions and I could care less what anyone else thinks of me. If someone wants to sit on a pedastal and look down on me, let them. I'll trip that pedastal.

TRUST is a very important factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity may result in separation. A telephone operator told me that one day she received a phone call. She answered, Public Utilities Board. There was silence. She repeated, There was still no answer. When she was going to cut off the line, she Heard a lady's voice Oh, so this is PUB.Sorry, I got the number from my Husband's pocket but I do not know whose number it is." Without mutual trust, just imagine what will happen to the couple if the telephone operator answered with just "hello" instead of "PUB"

My relationship was troubled for the first year and a half. I finally realized and dealt with the fact that it was because my mom wanted everything her way. I decided not to allow this. I moved in with my fiance and we have been doing great ever since. My mom is the only one who still has not come to terms with me doing things my way. I see it as her loss. I'm 26 years old and at the end of the day I have to be happy with my choices... no one else!

My ex mother-in-law didn't think I was good enough for her son because my mother had been married quite a few times. After years of battles with her, large and small, and over every single thing, I finally came to understand that she thought NOBODY would ever be good enough for him unless she was a carbon copy of herself. Try not to let her get to you.

My fiance has a daughter from a previous relationship, with his ex still living home by them. and they don't approve of me- never married, no previous kids (a 3mth old boy for him) and they have not seen my son (their choice)!!
Be yourself, if your bf lves you enough he will stand up with you. If not good riddance to both!!!

Give her a chance to get to know you. She'll find out what a wonderful person you are!
