melb Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 my mom never liked my bf from the beginning. She met him only once for like 10 min. and that was the only chance she ever gave him. My mom doesn't like him bc he use to be a heroin addict and experimented w. drugs in high school and basically went down the wrong road and hung out w the wrong crowd but he's clean now and it took him alot of time. I didnt meet him until he had been clean for a while but he was still going through the process of recovery..My bf told me about his situation and how he wanted a clean and sober life etc. But my mom found out more dirt about his past and i appreciate my mom so much for being there for me but should i know every detail about his past? so therefore she thinks he's a liar bc he didnt tell me everything.. The truth is he's a good guy w. a good heart, he has learned from his mistakes and we are both 21. i'm about to graduate and go into OT school(health care) and he is going back to school to hopefully pursue and engineering degree. There had been a lot of other stuff that had gone on between him and I like he told me once he was going to take my mom to court bc of all the stuff she found out about him etc..but in my eyes he's just immature and was saying stuff like that bc he was mad and frusterated bc of the strain his past had been on our relationship. my mom has told me multiple times that she doesnt feel like hes a safe person to be around and she will never let him into her life or my families. so it's really hard for me bc i see him as a great guy who made a bad decisions and i believe all people deserve 2nd chances.. he treats me really well and opens doors for me, takes me out frequently, really sweet guy, treats me like a princess , he carries my books very chilvarous.. i just dont know what to do anymore.. please help..

Jazzari Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 He wanted to take your mom to court because she ratted him out? It doesn't sound like the stuff your mom found out was minor then. How long has he been clean? Has he ever been clean before and then fell? My gut is to side with your mom on this one but I don't really have enough info to say. Link to post Share on other sites
