She is getting very uptight and emotional, because her mother is extremely hypocritical about our relaionship, She is not getting over her ex who was a complete lay a bout. She is actually making her cry because one minute she is praising Alison and the next she is saying that her boyfriend should not be with her.I am caught in all this and trying to support her. Have you any advice on trying to her support her with this. We have discussed about seeing "Relate" toghether, but is this expensive?

She is suggesting two people that she knows....

What is more important, you and the relationship between the two of you, or the interfering mother.
I suggest she should talk to her mother, and make it claer that she chose to be with you and no matter what, the mother either learns to accept or the mother will not have her around.
Good luck to you, you might need losts of patience and wisdom, but I will not advise you put up with to much of this either.
Your girlfriend should take a stand.

 I think that at 52yrs old your girlfriend should be able to make her own decisions in life! She should tell her mother to stop interferring. Suggest that perhaps the mother goes for counselling, maybe she feels that you are a threat and will take her daughter away from her!
