The original poster describes her difficulty with her boyfriend's mother, who has consistently been dismissive despite the OP's efforts to bond. During a recent birthday dinner, the mother made a hurtful comment implying that the OP's presence was unwelcome. This led the OP to pay for her own meal and consider the implications for her relationship. The boyfriend believes the OP overreacted, but she maintains that the remark reflects deeper issues regarding acceptance and respect within their dynamic.
I'm polite, successful, I bring gifts, I make an effort - but she treats me like I'm just some random he picked up off the street.
Since leaving, her partner has texted her to say she thinks she made a scene over a joke, and was disrespectful.
It's not just about a single remark per se, it's about the meaning behind it.
I'm just so happy to be surrounded by family... and some of the newer, hopefully temporary additions.
