Been through this a ton of times-my advise will save you so listen up
1:I wore a tee shirt that was a cute baby tee and from the get go-the mom hated me so wear something that doesn't expose too much skin. They could be weirdos about it
2:They're going to ask you about school and work so be prepared to answer those questions
3: Unless you share the same religion, I wouldn't bring up that topic
4: Offer your services to help in the kitchen or clearing dishes, whatever the occasion calls for
5: Don't cuddle all over the boyfriend-the parents will get grossed out
5:Just pretend your interested in all the crap they're talking about because you're gonna hear tons of boring childhood stories and vacation crap-just smile and laugh even if they suck
Follow my advise and they'll love you!

I agree with the above posters: R-E-L-A-X and be yourself.
I am somewhat timid at times (in person), and let me impart to you words that transpired between my boyfriend's father and myself upon our first meeting- keep in mind that my boyfriend is 48 and much more experienced with life than I am, and I'm 28..
Those first words his father said to me were: "So.. what ARE your intentions with my son!!"
Good thing I didn't clam up! I relaxed, allowed myself to laugh, take a breath and pick up the conversation. In other words, be ready for anything!
Good luck!

Dress like a lady. Keep mouth shut and eyes/ears open. Smile a lot...but don't be fake. Good luck.

Just be relaxed, be yourself. They'll see how much you love their son and that should be enough. Good luck!

Be relaxed, open and friendly. Do not appear timid. You will be fine.

be yourself. its more important that they get to know the real you. if their son loves you, i'm sure they will too. and if they dont, who cares, as long as he does!

Don't do anything too much. Think moderation.
