Bf / Gf Parents

My boyfriends parents, who have never been particularly pleasant, and who i havent seen for a while have recently started randomly insulting me! They are not nasty as such and when they dont make comments they are fine. But these comments really get me down, despite my boyfriend reassuring me that his parents like me. When on holiday a while ago other insulting comments where made, but recently in just one day I was called 'a chav' 'a dog (tho she later sed she was talking about my bf), and jst generally demeaning me. They are not exactly popular with my bf's friends either, so maybe they are the same with them, but they are never 'nice' to me. Does anyone else have this problem or any advice ? Ta x
They are probably just jealous... jealousy is normally the cause of most problems. I'm sure if you rise above it and ignore it, it won't be a problem.
maybe have a word with them about it?
i think if you have a polite word with them about it two things might happen
1) they will respect you more because you sound matured and respect yourself


OR

2) think you are a disrespectful young arrogant brat who's full of herself and things may become worse.

so u need to judge what kind of character they have before trying anything, cos different people react differently
