Can you look at it another way? 

I think if we want to make progress we need to be less defensive and me or her type conflict or asking him to choose is a bad idea that will not go well. 

 It is hard when you have a child who dates or plans to marry someone that we have reservations about .. that does not make us the bad mom?      Do you know what the reservations she has about you really are or are you just assuming?    Have you tried to get to know her , talk to her?   

Sometimes we need to learn to know the real person....... on a one on one basis not    "other family members like me so..." ..... who a child marries becomes family may be the parent of grand kids someday  and animosity needs to be worked out ...   be the bigger person and work on making friends or coming to a civil understanding or prepare to find a new BF
