Getting on with a partner’s parents can only help relationship satisfaction. So here’s a few tips on how you can make a good first impression.
The Big Meet
- Treat it as a cross between a job interview and a first date. Dress nicely, but appropriately. That’s means no hot pants or obscenely low cut tops.
- Find out what your new beau’s parents are interested in, be it football, gardening, or food. On the big day, talk to them about their passion.
Your Partner
Remember, your partner might be stuck in the middle between you and his parents, so avoid the following:
- Touchy subjects that might cause uncomfortable debates.
- Criticizing his parents after meeting them. Again this could easily backfire on you.
Follow these steps and here’s hoping you win over your beau’s parents just as you did him!
