Meeting the parents is a huge moment in any relationship. And while it probably won't "make or break" your relationship, depending on how much you and your significant other value each other's opinions, it can determine how smoothly things will go if things get serious between you two.
Think about it. You love your boyfriend and your boyfriend loves you, and all that’s left is to make sure his parents love you, too. Although, you’re convinced that’s easier said than done. Here are 20 thoughts that go through your head before meeting your boyfriend’s parents:
1. "Ugh, I'm so nervous, this is so stressful. I really hope they like me."
2. "Ok, I swear this dress wasn't this short this morning."
3. "Great, I look like sh*t. They're going to think their son is dating a scrub."
4. "These are the moments when being a picky eater SUCKS."
5. "Think fast! Do I greet them with a hug or a handshake?"
7. "Alright, so that awkward encounter just answered my question."
8. "Ah too many questions, I don't even remember what my own name is!"
9. "Oh, my goodness, I forgot about the siblings."
10. "Wow, his sisters are beautiful."
11. "Where's the dog? I bet he would like me."
12. "I wonder how much he's told them about me."
13. "Don't spill, don't spill, don't spill. F*CK."
14. "I hope they can't see me sweating."
15. "How is it possible to have a family this big?"
16. "Dammit, I hope no one realized I complimented his mom like, 23 times in the last five minutes."
17. "Do they like me, or are they just being polite?"
18. "I didn't understand that joke. Should I laugh anyways?"
19. "Wow, OK. This is going really well."
20. "I think."
