At the end of the day your mum only wants the best for you and for you to be happy. She is a lot more experienced in life than you are. Maybe you have had some bad relationships in the past and she is trying to help choose the best partner for you. Don't let her get you down though with her domineering ways. Laugh it off, make light of it and just agree with her then do your own thing anyway. You need to be more motivated and think more positively about yourself. You HAVE self esteem, it's within you, it just needs to be brought out!
I recommend that you watch the movie "The Secret". You can watch it immediately from your own PC and it costs only $4.95 (£2.50) to watch. It is an amazing moving and shows you how YOU can make things happen through thinking positive thoughts. I have recommended this movie to hundreds of people and have been inundated with positive comments from them saying how it has changed their life.

YOU are your own person, your mum is only trying to advise you but at the end of the day YOU know what you want from life and what makes you tick. Always remember this: You have a mind, your feelings come from your mind therefore you can control your feelings. In other words, YOU are in charge and nobody else. YOU determine the future. And you become what you THINK. Be careful because the universe will deliver that which you THINK!

Can I ask how old you are? What is you and your mum's star sign?

You mother seems to be quite overbearing.It maybe worthwhile speaking with her about how you feel. Maybe establish why she is trying to get you get new clothes? Find out why she is introducing you to new people? Then explaining how each of those things make you feel? Ideally you could try to aim to figure out what is her motivation behind her actions and then see if there are alternatives or compromises available.It can be diffcult trying to communicate points between parents/children as there is automatically a power difference even before you open your mouth. It might help tohave another family member present.
