on 7/18/2006 Wear something that's "you." If you're used to miniskirts, don't wear something ankle-length, you will feel awkward and it will show! Wear something fairly conservative, but still young and pretty.Just in general, moms want their son to have a nice girlfriend, and dads want a pretty (and also nice) girlfriend. Be intelligent, and when in doubt, don't say it!
on 2/2/2006 The person you have to impress the most is Mom. Be nice. Offer to give a helping had if stuff needs doing, like helping make tea or wash dishes. But don't overdo it, you want to be yourself and not appear false.
on 11/22/2005 Don't dress or act how you think your boyfriend's parents will want you to. Be yourself and let them see what your boyfriend loves about you.
