Meet the Parents - 5 Ways to Make Them Fall in Love With You

Your heart is beating so fast.
In days to come, you will be finally meeting your boyfriend's parents.
You are thinking: how will you be able to please them? What are their expectations from you? How will you win their approval, from what? This thought is even worse for you because you do not even know why you are acting and thinking so weird when you will only be meeting them.
You will just be introduced by your boyfriend.
Why worry too much? Just be yourself.
Make no pretensions.
It will disgust them if, for an instance, you will pretend you know everything in every topic that you will be discussing during the 'meeting'.
In fact, you will be more appreciated if you will show your attention and amusement to some of the things they will say.
On your first meeting, it is safer to smile, listen attentively to what they say, and involve yourself in the discussion (but not too much that you will end up bragging about yourself and your achievements).
Remember, less talk, less trouble? Anyway, you will have more meetings to come.
Do not be in a hurry.
Dress simple.
Look feminine.
A simple casual dress will do.
Do not overdress yourself.
Put on a light make up.
Do not make yourself look like you are attending a wedding party.
It is a simple dinner in his home, anyway.
Because if you do, after you leave, you will be the talk of the town.
And, they will always remember you for that.
Bring something with you.
A food is highly recommended, especially if you are the one who cooked it (make sure you are a good cook, though).
They will have the impression that you are not only a career woman, but also someone who can take care of their son.
Moreover, bringing food will prevent you from distributing gifts to all of them as if it's already Christmas.
They will have this idea that you are trying to please them all.
Be honest.
As the famous adage goes, "honesty is the best policy.
" In every discussion, speak about the truth; do not provide 'padded' information just to build yourself to them.
They must accept you with who you are.
Like, being an adopted daughter (if you are) will not make you less of a person, right? More importantly, it is better that you do not hide any information.
At least, you will not have any fear.
Be courteous.
Say thank you for every little thing they do for you.
If the food deserves praise, ask who cooked it and ask how it is cooked.
Tell them how happy you are to meet them.
The five items above serve only to give you a general idea of who should be the first time you meet his parents.
If you have come up with new ideas, go on.
The key here is to leave a good, lasting impression.
