Should be No one could ever come between my mother and me.

If your mother is the subject of the sentence, then write it like this:

"My mother and I were inseparable."

However, since "no one" is the subject of this sentence, then write it like this:

"No one could ever come between my mother and me."

The difference is that "mother and I" is the object of the sentence, not the subject.

would you say "between we" or "between us"? Between is a preposition and always takes an objective pronoun after it. "Us" is an objective pronoun. Usually toward the front of the sentence you use nominative pronouns and toward the end objective ones. Look them up.

Break it down....no one could come between my mother...no one could come between I....makes so sense.....no one could come between me.....

no one could come between my mom and me.

my mother and "me" because the phrase is objective (come between "us" not come between "we")
Hope that helped....
