My boyfriend's mother is putting a block in our relationship?
My boyfriend and I have been together for two years. We are 18 and 19, both in college.
My boyfriend's mother, as much as I love her and respect the way she raises her children, is far too overprotective - especially for this age.
She will not let me drive up to visit him or pick him up from college. We BARELY get to see each other (maybe once a month when he comes home via the bus).
I understand it can be potetionally dangerous, but that's all she sees in it. She doesn't see anything positive when it comes to he and I. She just sees it as a danger and negative thing. Not that it can be fun, a new experience, or a chance for us to spend more time together.
I am getting very frustrated. At this point, all we can do is hangout at my house and occasionally I am allowed to drive him to Chipotle or Panera. Otherwise, we aren't allowed to take day trips anywhere, nor can we have sleepovers.
Our relationship is great and I love spending time with him whenever I can, but I am starting to become very annoyed with not being able to make memories and have adventures with my boyfriend.
TLDR: My boyfriend's mother doesn't let me visit him or college or bring him home on long weekends. All we are allowed to do is hangout at my house and occasionally I can drive him to get food.
