how do I talk to my boyfriend's mom?
Before me and my bf got together, we were best friends for about a year. I never really met his parents because for as long as I've known him, he's been able to drive, so his parents never were at the stuff he came to. Now that we're together, I've met his parents and I LOVE his dad, but his mom is harder to get to know. She has some disease that keeps her from going a lot of places because she feels bad. Anyway, my bf told me that she doesn't know if she likes me because I don't talk to her. I don't do it on purpose, but I don't actively seek her out to talk. I'm the kind of person who takes a little bit to open up so I'm pretty quiet when I first meet someone. Plus I get kinda nervous around his parents because I want to make a good impression. I know it probably makes me come off as snooty though. What can I talk to his mom about? And how do I be myself around them without worrying about what they think?

Well first of all, talk to your boyfriend about what your mom likes. My ex's mom is so different than me in her likes so I found small things that we could talk about. Also, see if she likes anything specific! For example, my ex's mom loved turtles so when I went to a store and I saw turtle earrings I bought them and gave them to her and she loved them. If you do something like that, it won't seem like you're trying to hard, but at the same time it's a nice gesture, like a "i saw this and thought of you" type thing, which is a warm gesture that she might appreciate. So talk to him about what she likes, and then talk to her about those things, and tell him to tell her that you're shy and she may understand. And, if your bf likes you for who you are, then they will like you for who you are! So really, just be yourself!
