She just didn't like most anybody who I dated. From my experience, you are not likely to change her mind, at least not quickly or easily.
Listen to the advice given so far by baby duck and Diovan. Just show him your love, stop drinking so much and don't ever cheat again. He has forgiven you this time and you are lucky that you have a guy who can forgive you. If you cheat again then he won't be likely to ever forgive you again. If he treats you well then you have to do the same to him.

No matter, no problem. Your in love with him, he's in love with you. He has forgiven you, you make him happy and that's all that counts. You can't impress his mother, you can't wait for her to forgive you too, because that is asking too much. As baby duck has suggested, just treat him really good, make sure he comes home smiling every day, give him little thoughfull presents and never cheat again. One day, in time, she'll notice how happy her son is and she'll believe that you are the best girlfriend for him, but you made a mistake.
PS: Give up the drink, it's caused you to misbehave, that would be a very good start, to making sure this never happens again. Good luck
