#TalkNerdyToMeLover's Brenda Lyttle

How many times have you heard of stories of friends screwing up when they have been asked to meet the parents of their beloved women? Well, let’s be honest, dating a woman and meeting her parents to take it up a notch are two completely different ball games and it will need you to up your game appropriately in order to ensure that you don’t join the long list of men who are remembered as people who screwed up at the most important time.

Meeting the parents, if goes well, is an activity that can boost your relationship quotient and strengthen the bond that the two of you share. On the other hand, a failed meet will surely spell doom for you and your partner. Nervous, much? Well, after successfully using all the dating advice for men that’s available, now is the time for you to make use of the following 2 tips to perfection to make a stunning impression on her parents, like the way you did when you met their daughter for the first time:

1.Dress To Impress

Go back to the oldest cliché that is there in the boom for creating impressions during dating and meeting her parents and adhere to the motto that ‘the first impression is the last impression’. Well, how can you be going around making some seriously positive impressions about yourself and the relationship? The easiest and most obvious answer will be the choice of dress that you have for the all-important meeting.

It is necessary that you dress perfectly for the occasion taking care that you are neither over emphasizing on it neither are you ignoring it too much. This will ensure that you create the right amount of perfect impression on the parents of your partner and in the process win the first round in impressing them. You can ask your girlfriend about the gathering that you can expect for the meeting and the tastes, likes and dislikes of her parents when you are trying to choose the right dress for the occasion.

2. Be The Perfect Balance

No parents like to have their daughter in the hands of a man who is unsure about his career. This is why it is important that you are able to advertise yourself and your career properly in front of the parents in order to win their heart and consent. At the same time you will need to ensure that you are not being overtly proud about your achievements in front of the parents of your partner.

This is why it is important to learn how to strike the sweet spot of balance between prides and overtly modest when you are discussing your career with the parents. Remember that it is not a job interview with a CV and resume and the whole affair, you just need to be honest, humble and forthcoming in the right extent to make yourself a hit with her folks.

Add to these 2 extremely important tips the likes of grooming yourself for the occasion and ensuring that you have all the stories and incidents sorted between the two of you, and you just have the recipe for a perfect ‘meet her parents’ scenario.
