Help me understand

So basically because I've started 'talking' to my ex partner my mum has blown up, we had a huge row Easter Friday when I was supposed to be staying there the weekend, I had to leave because she wouldn't calm down

I've now heard that she won't speak to me all the time I've talking to my ex

I was with my ex nearly 4 yrs and it ended a short while ago, he has been working on his issues (moods) but my mum never liked him never approved
She loved it when we split up and to be honest and as much as she was there for me when we split as it was pretty awful, she is so angry at me and that showed on Friday

She has a point and my ex has got to sort himself out and if I'm honest with myself I don't know if I can let him back in my life but talking to him at the moment helps some what

I don't want to lose my mum over a man but I don't want to be in the position to have to choose
I feel it's more of a self righteousness than a care for her daughter action
Although I appreciate she does care and is also hurt as when she flared up she got personal so I did too
I regret that but lately i feel all I do is have to listen to what others have to say but when I have an opinion it doesn't count

If you had a daughter, would you want her to be with a man like your ex?

What's wrong with your ex? Is she right to be concerned?

I'd want her to be happy and I'd support her and not turn my back or kick her out my house

Yes he had moods and she saw me go though periods where he said he would change and didn't
So I've been let down and she thinks he will do it again
