Search Results: her boyfriend around my child

That's what happened with my ex boyfriend. My mother hated him for the longest and yes she was right. When I dumped and blocked him, she unleashed her hatred on him and told him everything she thought about him. She was happy about no longer pretending to be nice for my sake anymore.

She likes my new boyfriend and finally I can see her genuine expression of happiness. She isn't just doing it for my sake. She sees him as part of the family.

Another example: My cousin's parents hate the guy and they're faking it big time. Her boyfriend is acting similar to my ex boyfriend; he's another one of those no good for nothing user that comes for sex and wants to get all the benefit of living together without any real commitment... wasting her time. The parents aren't saying anything bad about him when she's around but in private, they say the truth.

Overall... once your parents hate your partner, isn't that their permanent views? A genuine, sincere 180 turn is unlikely. The stories about warming up to your partner and keeping the peace is just for the child's sake... nothing else. It doesn't changes anything that they still hate the person.
