I have been dating this guy for 3 years now, and I am tired of trying to impress his parents/brother; is there a special magic trick needed or should i stop trying, i feel like i am not good enough, and we thought of marriage, and I thought that's what i wanted, but now im in no hurry; any suggestions?

Honey if the guy loves you that all that really matter. The Parents and Brother will just need to accept it. To win over the parents be extra kind to them and remember the important dates when they come around. You are good enough because the guy love you for three year and he will love you even more. Good luck and ROCK ON!!

The only thing you need to do is be yourself and stay true to yourself no matter what. The more you try to impress these people the more unhappy you will be. They would respect and accept you if you are yourself. Trying to be someone else is not a good thing. Your not being true to yourself when your being this way. What they see is what they should get. As long as everyone is respectful towards each other then that's all that matters. You don't need acceptance sweetie, you just need respect from them when everything is said and done.

Stop trying, if they do not accept you for who you are, then that is their problem, accepting you because their son/brother chose you, should be enough. Be yourself, be nice & friendly to them, show intrest in what they have to say, let them know you are there if they ever need you, but you dont need any magic, you are who this guy loves & that is what counts.

why are you trying to impress them - you will NEVER have to sleep with them, etc. The best magic is to be yourself and if that AIN'T good enough, so be it. They don't have to like you and vice versa - if you marry their son, they will have to accept you because it's his choice. Trust me, if you keep trying to impress them after the wedding you will continue to do the same. Be yourself, parents will be parents and no one might not ever be good enough for him in their eyesight.

Sound interested in their conversations and explain about your family and how they might have similar interests that they have. Show your love in a respectful manner to your mate in front of the inlaws. Good luck.

You will never be good enough for their son. That's just how it is because they love him so much...or they're difficult. So, be the best version of the real you and stop trying things to impress them. Just let them get to know you. life will be easier.

Stop trying to impress them and just be yourself either they will like you or they won't. Maybe they think you are not being yourself around them and that puts them off.

Be as sweet and helpful as you can ( in the kitchen, cleaning the tabel off, ect..). Be kind to everyone, and be as polite as you can. When you tell stories, make them funny, or interesting...Just be the best 'you' you can be (with extra good manners!). Good Luck!

Well for one, you're in a relationship with him and not his parents so your business is not theirs. A relationship with in-laws is important, probably more so to him than you or them! So don't try to impress them, he obviously loves you for who you are not for what you try to be. Just be yourself and they'll probably end up loving you too!
tisk tisk, girls are so illogical! :P
