Sorry if the title is questionable however this is about my mother and my girlfriend.

I have been dating my girlfriend for 8 months now. This is my first real relationship ever. I am rational and logical when it comes to my love life and I would not have dated this girl if I didn't think that she would be healthy for me in some way. Also we had great communication from the start, which I've never gotten from anyone else that has wanted to date me. She and I can talk about any issue we have what so ever and we do... and we work on it. Through her I have advanced greatly in certain areas of mental health... but I do not feel like I need her to continue better mental health.. Which is all the better!

However since the beginning I have been stressed because I could tell that my mother didn't care much for my girlfriend. This has escalated to the point where... i just can't take it anymore. My mom doesn't want my girlfriend in our house, she doesn't want me spending any time with her. My mother is paranoid that I want to go live with her (which I really don't) and... It's just creating problems that don't need to exist.

Then my girl told me today, after I talked to her about it that she doesn't like my mom either. I'm in the relationship for myself. However my family means a lot to me. So at this point I feel like the relationship is pointless. But I don't want to give my mom the satisfaction of her opinion winning over. I'll never hear the end of it.
