Trying to ruin the proposal

Mandy

So I need some advice. My boyfriend and I have already agreed on getting married, my problem is, my mom. I love her but I feel like she’s making everything about her, and this is my first tome getting married, and I’m the first one in the family to ever have a wedding so I’m not sure if I’m just being greedy here. She made my boyfriend promise him she would be there for the proposal, but him and I are going to El Salvador for vacation. He was going to propose to me romantically on the beach, and I had no idea... until my sister and mother got involved. They told him he couldn’t do that and that he was stupid for the idea to the point he came to me super upset. I’m furious. I want my engagement to be special and about US, but it’s beginning to feel like more and more we have all of these rules to follow so she’s included. I feel like if we get engaged at this point my mom will continue to have family block me and portray me as an awful daughter... I just want to be happy about my moment. I’m also going wedding dress shopping this weekend but she’s going on vacation and she’s made me feel guilty about even going this weekend 😔
