Dress casually but properly. Wear comfortable everyday clothes that aren't too tight or too low cut, to present yourself as respectable but not too covered up to give them the impression you're trying to be something you're not. Acknowledge all house rules, smile a lot, remember to say please and thank you, you'd be surprised how much those two words impress people. Mainly though be yourself so they get a chance to really know what type of person their son is interested in. Also make sure to say something positive once you make an entrance and are introduced, such as wow, I love the way you have your living room decorated, or look at your boyfriend and say something like, your mom seems so nice (as she is walking away and within ear shot). If their son likes you, chances are they will too. But watch out for moms, us moms can be overprotective of our sons; especially of our boys that are babies of the family. Also make sure as you guys talk to give them a little bit of detail of things you like to do, such as what clubs you belong to, what hobbies you have, etc.

What can I say? The boyfriend must think a lot of you indeed! OK..mind your manners, dress appropriately and smile alot. Then ask Mom about your BF when he was a little kid...what was he like? I bet he was cute? Do you have any pictures? The....when the coast is clear....run! Just kidding...I hope you have a good visit. You will do well. Godloveya.

Be very polite and sweet. Don't volunteer any information about yourself. Don't talk too much. And for goodness sake, don't talk in slang terms. Use correct English and your best manners.

Just be yourself, I think your boyfriend's parents would really appreciate you for just being you.

Be yourself and try to be comfortable. Don't try to impress his parents.

Be yourself, especially make friends with his mom. Mom's are kinda over protective over their boys. :)
