My girlfriend's mom hates me I never did anything wrong she just hates all guys is there any way I can get her to like me?

Sometimes you can't do anything about it. I know some guys who have struggled with that (and even I have struggled with boyfriend's moms occasionally and I'm a girl). Just try to kill her with sweetness. That's what I usually do to anyone because at that rate you're proving that you're a good person and if anything doesn't work out - it's not on you.

Treat her daughter right, be really polite to her parents -show them that you're a great kid and have a lot going for you and that you care about their daughter, etc.

In the end, most parents generally give up if they have a problem and as long as their kid is happy, they can usually just suck it up for the sake of their son/daughter.

Normally that would work but she hates my dad too and he met her once and all they did was introduce each other

Ugh... one of those. I have a friend right now whose parents (especially the mother) are unbelievably racist (he's white) and making their relationship fall apart because white boys aren't good enough for her daughter.

He's still trying. They basically just try to avoid the parents being near him. I would say just wait and see if she'll come around at some point but in the mean time just try not to cross paths. Sad really. Mothers shouldn't be like that. No one should.

Thanks I appreciate it a lot

Hey no problem. I hope it all works out.

No, there's probably nothing you can do. Some parents are just like that, and no one will ever be good enough for their son/daughter. Just be respectful, polite, and complimentary, whenever you see her. Don't *give* her a reason not to like you. You'll be fine :)

Nope and don't force. Just be a gentleman and she'll come around.
