My boyfriend talks a lot of shit about my mom. I hate it. Yeah sometimes I’ll complain when she doesn’t let me go do something, but I get over it. I love my mom more than anything, I probably would’ve killed myself that time I was about to attempt it, but then I remembered my mom. My mom is everything to me, and I hate the fact that my boyfriend talks so much shit about her. I’ve told him to stop but he doesn’t. I don’t think it’s okay for him to do that. I tell him that if I wanted his opinion I would’ve asked for it. He just gets more mad and blows up on me. Like, screams at me. I love him, but I love my mom also. And I’m just stuck between and I just don’t know what to do:( I have anxieties so bad I make myself sick by accident and it’s happening right now. This is putting so much stress I don’t need on my shoulders and I just..don’t know how to fix this…

You should do what’s best for you and break up with your boyfriend. I’ve been in your shoes and I know its such a shitty feeling. But your mom is more important than someone that talks down on her. You deserve someone better that loves you AND your mother.
Stay strong and good luck xx.
This is just more proof that behavior is pretty low ranked on the priority of important traits to find in a mate. At the top are looks, fitness, endowment, and wealth. If a guy has all that, who cares if he’s a total jerk?
Then again… did you consider that perhaps his criticisms are correct?
Either way… You claim you “love” this guy, but he talks shit about your mom and escalates arguments into angry shouting. Sounds like a winner to me.
The likely only “fix,” is to give him an ultimatum: tell him to cut out being a jerk, or get cut out of your life.
You could try just not speaking to him for a while, and see what happens.
The reason he dislikes your mom is because you confide in him when your mom does something that upsets you. This whole sotuation is quite common. For example if you only posted how your boyfriend upsets you on here we would all probably see him in a bad light. If you told your family only the bad that your bf does they would hate him. I see this sort of situation all the time. One of my ex’s vents to me about her bf and so i don’t particularly think he is that great a boyfriend. Her boyfriend vents to his mom and sister about her so they hate her. Hope you get what im gettin at.
