My BF doesn't have a great relationship with his mom. She treats him like dirt, invades his privacy and she doesn't like me being his GF. How do I deal with this?
It's very unfortunate that he doesn't get along with his mom. Mothers play an important role in their sons' lives and, although you are his girlfriend and it's a given that you will support him, you need to take a neutral approach to the matter. Encourage him to talk to someone he can trust (like a brother or his father) but it's best that you don't get more involved than that. Make sure you never develop an attitude towards his mom. Remember - she's an adult and also the mother of the guy you love. Whatever you do, be a good listener and supportive girlfriend - h''s going to need you. We hope that they solve their differences soon!
