Is it just my mother?

So, one of the reasons I have very few friends is because im my mother's eyes they always have some flaw and never change. The reason I was so desperately clinging to the friend I vented about in my previous posts is because she was the only person my mother found as a perfect person. Anytime I say a name there is always something wrong about that person. It's just frustrating, I know she means well but I want to be in control of this. Am I asking for too much?
