(f26) I have had a boyfriend (m26) for almost a year now. I already met all of her family four months ago. And ever since, his mom has always made me feel like I am an outcast, or that I am not welcome to be part of their family. I oftentimes told my boyfriend about it, and even cried because of it. He tried to open it for his mom but said that he couldn’t do anything about it anymore. My boyfriend told me that he thinks it is because I am pursuing music, and his mother has this Asian belief that he must marry someone who has the same degree as him, an engineer, or perhaps someone with a title like a doctor. I am getting tired of this setup with his family, especially since he is family oriented, so I am always in his family’s company. I think it is too early for me to ask him for a live in. It is so hard if the person who doesn’t approve is your partner’s parent.
Tl; dr: My mother-in-law doesn't like me at all, and has always made me feel unwelcome in their family. It is especially hard, because my boyfriend still doesn’t want to live independently and is family oriented. Should I give up or fight for our relationship?
