My mom just had to accept it because we are so happy together. If your mom really wants you to be happy then she will let you be happy with whoever it is! I know its hard but if you happy, she should be happy. But FACT OF THE MATTER IS YOU TWO ARE NOT RELATED IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE.

 AS I see it.... 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4.... so that's as close as you and he could be....
On the other hand,.... if we (all) go back far enough, we've got Adam and Eve as Great, Great..... (you determine how many "greats" to use!) grandparents.... AND we haven't suffered too much for that....
On the other hand.... we have to figure out, also, how to reconcile that Noah and Mrs Noah were on the Ark with all those animals, and nobody else.... Damn.... you (and he) may be even closer than I was going to suggest....
Oh well.......

 Because the half-brothers are linked by their father, and you have a different father to them, you are not related to the one you're dating.
Did you grow up with the one you're dating?
If yes, that would be odd but not actually wrong as in illegal.
Not sure what to say about your mother, but bear in mind that she has your best interests at heart, so her disapproval of the relationship might indicate that dating this guy isn't the best idea in the world.
Just to add (because you seem rather young and innocent): if you are sexually active, use condoms every single time. You would be in mess if you got pregnant and I am sure you're aware of the very high HIV rates in your part of the world.
Look after yourself.
