Make sure all our finger nails are trimed up.Try moving your hand around on the neck, your elbo should be moving if you are trying all the angles.
Lets say you are standing with the guitar hanging from you on a strap. Lets say the guitar neck is like a hand on a clock, with the guitar straight up being 12:00 and pointed at the gound 6:00. Try the neck at 1:00 moving your hand around. If that does not work, move to 2:00 and try, then 3:00 etc..

F and open Bm are often the last chords learned to play at will.

Baby steps, one finger at a time.

Sometimes learning to play a open E with you middle finger, ring and pinky first can help. You will still have to twist things around to get our first finger to cover the B and E strings.
