My entitled mom thinks that I'm staying with my boyfriend, all because I'm taking what I can get, claiming that my boyfriend will not provide a future for me and that I am wasting my time. And despite the fact that I've tried multiple times to have a conversation with my mom, she still refuses to listen, leaving me at my breaking point, as right now I really don't know what to do. Here's what happened. I'm a 19 year old female and I've been dating my boyfriend for the past four years. I never felt comfortable

0:24.8

coming to my parents and telling them that we were dating because when I first brought it up to

0:29.2

my mother at 16, she said she was not comfortable with her 16 year old daughter dating. She also

0:34.3

thought I was dating him because other people were dating at the time,

0:42.9

and she saw it as me jumping on a trend, which are her exact words. Then, prom came around a year or so later, and my mom got to meet him in person. We didn't plan to coordinate outfits,

0:47.5

and we just went dressed as we like. We enjoyed ourselves, and we had a great time. My boyfriend

0:52.2

even talked to my mom and said that she was really

0:54.6

nice to him and he felt hopeful that he might actually have a chance with my mom coming around to him.

0:59.5

Well, instead, after she went home, she criticized his appearance and talked trash on him instead of

1:04.9

saying something nice about him. Even my aunt had to tell her that it wasn't that serious,

1:09.1

and she was being way too harsh. I found this

1:11.8

out from my younger siblings after the fact, and my boyfriend and I were crushed. Fast forward a few

1:16.6

months ago, where I finally worked up the courage to tell them that I am dating him. Now, my father

1:21.4

didn't say much. He just asked the basics about what he does and what he looks like, whereas my

1:26.1

mom didn't really ask much about him,

1:28.2

but emphasized that I need to focus on my degree in college and not to focus too much on men

1:33.2

and get distracted. Now, the entire summer, they did not ask a thing about him and I, and my mom

1:38.2

always asked how my friends were doing ever since I was young, so I thought he was just going

1:42.7

to be an addition to her questions. Instead,

1:45.1

she asked about my friends, even one that she never met, but nothing about my boyfriend. By this point,

1:50.3

my boyfriend and I are planning on living together after college, talking about marriage, kids,

1:55.2

how we would handle the bills, etc. So to see that they don't care about someone who is so deeply
