What should I so with my boyfriends mother?

His mom is a liar. she tells him one thing and then me another. she could give two craps about her son as long as hes cleaning the house and doing things for her. Recently we caught her in a lie on 3 way with the phone, she cussed me out and hung up. it is obvious that she lied, but my boyfriend sees me as the liar. he cant admit that his mom is one, and it is pulling us apart. we have been going out for 5 years now. I always put up with her, but she has now taken it to the next level. his parents are divorced and his father sides with me thinking that she is out of hand. how should I approach my boyfriend? we normally fight over everything but I need him to understand. and what should I now do with his mom? I am 18 and my boyfriend is 19. thanks for any answers.

Suck up to his mom. I know you don’t feel like doing it and I know that she is lying,but telling him that she is a liar and complaining about it is just going to make it worse. She is after all his mom and blood is thicker than water.

I also have a boyfriend with a difficult mother and for me being friendly and considerate all the time helped getting her of my back and getting the stress of his back.

So just bear with it and put up with her and be nice. If you just continue taking it and not saying something every time she accuses you of things you’ll end up benefiting from this.
