Think of it as a survival test. After this nothing could be more embarassing or uncomfortable.

Pretty much damned if you do, and damned if you don't.

I'd ask him - its clear your family is interested, and not asking will result in more questions, with longer lasting impact, than not asking him.

This assumes that you are seriously interested in him, and that he is interested long term in you...

Pretty much if the two of you are serious - you should ask him to go... explain what he's in for, and go as a team, united lovers facing the dreadful family empire...

Been there and the consequences of not bringing him along will have long term implications on how your family thinks about him.

I think it's fine. Bring him in. Prep him about the crazy uncle, so he doesn't get ambushed.

The only real risk here is that the family will love him...and in a month you get over him. You may have to answer questions about "whatever happened to that nice boy" for a while.

If you want him there, ask him. Most people understand the embarrassing family thing, and won't judge you for it. If you feel like you both are pretty set, and may be together a while, I'd say yes. If he really likes you, he'll understand. He may even think it's funny.

Well if your that ashamed of your family then I guess you can abandon them for your boyfriend who you will probalby break up with becuase you don't seem to value thoes relationships you already have which is sad. How about you have faith and if he does ask questions you just say hey that is my family they arn't perfect but they are my family. Go rent the movie MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING and watch it with the family you will all laugh and it will difuse any tension.

Sure bring him along. You can be with your man and your family plus this is a good opportunity for them to meet him and check him out for you. If someone does something stupid you can always blame it on the alcohol.

Go ahead and invite him. He needs to know what your family is like now. Just warn him about what might happen so he will be prepared or it. Let him know that it's okay if he doesn't want to go. Give him the option, then he won't feel like you don't want him to meet your family.

haha, I think 2 months is long enough as long as you're both comfortable with it and really would like to then there's really no problem. As long as he's ready for your relatives and you both like each other by the end of the night it may be fun.

Nope, not if it will cause you embarrassment especially if you like him. Meeting the family should never enter into it for a long time.

BE A REBEL!like me, do what ever you want, it's up to you, but i suggest you take him if you REALLY like him, if you don't think you will last long with him, don't. well, that's what i would do, i don't know about you. and if you choose not to and your parents ask why, just make something up like he couldn't come because he wanted to be with his family or he couldn't come, something like that. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
