First, forgive me if this is not the right section to post in....

 

My situation:

My boyfriend is still living with his parents. Due to some unforseen circumstances, 2 months ago, I had to move in with him for a very short period of time before we could buy a house on our own. Everything was cool in the beginning but lately, the past 2 weeks or so his mother really started ignoring me and being bitchy towards me. I am honestly nothing but nice to her. I try numerous times to talk to her to break the ice but she ignores me day in and day out...she is making my life miserable...she is very overbearing and overprotecting of him, which would explain this to some extent.......but how do we go about this? I believe that he should have a conversation with her and in a nice way that he should tell her not to treat me bad and get to the bottom of why everything changed all of a sudden because this is driving me crazy and putting a lot of stress on me.....We have to live there for now but she treats me like I don't even exist and does not even talk to him when I am around.

 

Please help, suggest something that we should do....

Move - NOW! How long is 'a very short time'? You talk about it like it's a couple of weeks, then say lately - last 2 weeks.

 

Maybe she's mad cuz he's moving into a house with you - taking her boy away. If he confronts her with it while all still living there - it will come out as you trying to drive a wedge between them or cause trouble with them ... "it was all fine til SHE moved in!" kinda thing

 

Who knows. But reality is that it's her house and you are a guest.
