We get along just fine but I don't get along with his mom nor his brother because when we started dating his brother out of the blue without even meeting me told my boyfriend that I was no good for him and that I was probably a hoe! And his mother agreed with him and said that he was entitled to his opinion which is true but still was disrespectful. And also while i went to meet them for the first time i had a little argument with my boyfriend and he accidentally press that talk button on his phone and called his mom and she put the phone on speaker so that she, his brother and sister could listen in on our conversation. I have not seen them since. They have not apologize even though I'm not trying to hear one after 2 years. His mother is still upset with me because I just up and left but what the hell did she expect? We are getting married next year and I still feel angry every time he mentions them. what can I do about the situation my boyfriend tells me to try and get over it because its been 2 years since then but he just doesn't understand how embarrassed I felt after all they did and its hard to cope what can I do because I know they are going to come over and visit how can I face them after all this time?

You need to let the past go and put it to rest. Try and not take there comments personally as you said yourself it was before they even met you and am sure now that they can see you both are the real deal. With a wedding coming up he needs to be able to have his family and you get on together. So now is the time to let it go and forgive and forget. It was two years ago and now it is time to start a new slate. If not for your own sake then for your boyfriends sake.

I can see where you are coming from and why you are upset.But they are his family and with something like a wedding I'm sure that he would want them there.I think that you should try and be the better person for yourself and your boyfriend and all just sit down and air it out.You are getting married so what they have done or said have had no impact on your relationship.I would say just try and all meet up and sort it out.Good luck.
