TL;DR – I’ve (F30) been with my boyfriend (M35) for almost 1.5 years. He has two baby mamas who regularly talk with his mom. I’ve only spoken to his mom twice on video calls and have never met her in person. Recently, he got into an argument with his mom where she said he was making his baby mama his whole world and that he wasn’t serious about me. He denied it and told his mom he was serious about building a future with me, but I still feel like she doesn’t take me seriously.
He struggles with drug use and hasn’t been spending enough time with his kids lately, and I’m pretty sure his family and baby mamas blame me for that. From what I can tell, they all group together and talk about me behind my back, which makes me feel invisible and disrespected.
I’m emotionally drained and starting to question if this relationship is sustainable. Has anyone dealt with partners whose family and exes don’t respect or accept you?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

If you think his family is the biggest problem, girl do I have news for you.
My eyes rolled so far back I saw brain matter, I can’t believe you’re 30 and this is what you’re rolling with.
I don’t know what happened in your family of origin or how beaten down you’ve been in life, but this dude isn’t worth a thing.
