Sometimes that just isn't possible and there are a lot of reasons why this happens. However if you could be a little more the on the stituation we may be able to help you better.

What happened to go to bad terms? Or is that irrelevant?

he has a habit of being on top of me when we kiss and she caught us and he decided that he wanted to take a break from our relationship the day after my birthday because mom has been making rude comments about him (she can't seem to figure out that she was at fault) my boyfriend realized he made a mistake not even 24 hours later and we got back together

don't let your mom rule your life
she doesn't have to like your boyfriend
you know, that shouldn't effect you two

Agreed. However she is your mother and she is just being protective. Then again are really wanna be mummy's little girl for the rest of your life. I certainly wouldn't think so. It really is your business what happens.

I'm sorry to hear that your mom doesn't like your boyfriend...................but on the plus side, you two got back together.

Well I would firstly say if your mum's in the house, don't be as affectionate with each other. Don't let him get on top of you, for example, unless you're behind a locked door. I don't know about any body else, but however much I like or don't like their partner, I don't want to see a family member with their partner on top of them.

Just keep them away from each other as much as possible. And if she starts making snide comments, stand up for him.

Actually, how old are you, out of interest?

I dont think u have to be hiding from ur mum at all, just go on with ur life, and ur mum will have to take it like it or not. u dont have to be with or against her, just between two ppl to whom u're attached but dont get along, I dont think u have to refuse of one of them for the other.
and if ur mum starts saying bad things about him, just ignore her if u think he's being right and nice to u.

This is a bad idea unless you want to totally alienate your mother. Compromise is the way forward here.

I also said this: u dont have to be with or against her, just between two ppl to whom u're attached but dont get along between them, I dont think u have to refuse of one of them for the other.

I mean it's not choosing between ur mum and ur bf, it's just being ok with both and ur mum will realize u and ur bf are ok together.
