Boyfriends mum

So I woke up to a lovely message this morning from my boyfriends mother.

Telling me to leave someone alone but I haven't even messaged them or anything? Telling me I'm a psycho and a freak and telling me to leave my boyfriend or she'll make my life hell pretty much.

What would you do 😂

Depends how invested you are in the bf. If he's wonderful and you adore him, you need to talk to him and find out what's going on. If he's just casual, LTB, because there are going to be major problems ahead.

We have been together for 7 years

Show your BF and ask him wtf.

Has her messenger been hacked, OP, or is it genuinely from her? It would be most odd for her to suddenly do this after seven years, if she’s been okay til now.

I'd phone her and ask for an explanation.

Show your boyfriend the message and then call her to find out WTF is going on. (Preferably when your BF can hear the call.) If she won't give you a chance that's fine, go NC. Your BF can do what he likes.

I would speak to your boyfriend about this, its often a difficult situation falling out with 'in laws'. We've been here and luckily my other half has always been supportive of me and would put any family members right should they acuse me of anything i had not done. As i would do the same for him.
We have an agreement that we discuss everything together and if neither of us agree if it affects my family i get the final say, if it affects his he gets the final say. The same as if its my family 'targeting' him i would intervene and vice versa. We've often found family members are able to forgive and forget a relative however if its the other half, grudges are more likely to remain making it harder to make amends.

Definitely need to talk to your BF about it. Has she always been strange with you, or do you usually get on?

Chocolatecoffeeaddict · 08/01/2019 15:59

Is it possible the message was for someone else? Is it possible the person you've been told to leave alone has made something up about you?

cmiddlwton · 08/01/2019 17:15

We have never got on.

She has now blocked me on everything so I can't call her either.

The other person o should apparently leave alone is her other sons girlfriends. So I'm guessing it's all down to favouritism

Your probably both better off without her she sounds like a nasty piece of work. As long as this isnt coming between you and your boyfriend, id just let her crack on if she wants to be pathetic.

Course you can call her it's called 141 then the number. iPhone can't block withheld numbers which I sadly found out.
But not sure what you would gain from calling her besides telling her to feck off and grow up.

moredoll · 10/01/2019 01:34

Don't contact her at all. Ask your bf to deal with it.

PerspicaciaTick · 10/01/2019 01:40

Hand the problem over to your bf. Now she has blocked you, it is the perfect excuse for washing your hands of her.
