Remember that time, when you had a meeting with her parents and you end up feeling completely out of place? Now you are stuck in a similar situation, just the roles are interchanged. For some folks it can be a call for a heart attack and some can fall into Coma as well. But wait, there is always a saviour for poor. So people who find introducing their girlfriend tongue-tied and nerve-racking, here are some effective tips for helping things go as slickly as possible:
Make a decision Are you?
First of all be sure and confident that you’re really prepared to make an introduction between your mom and your girlfriend. Obviously you don’t want a flying slipper coming straight towards your face, so lead with an indirect conversation like ‘I want you to meet my special friend’ and then see how she reacts. If she smiles and say ‘Who’s she?’ Then Bub, road is clear, speed up to an introduction.
Talk about her often Like literally.
What you need to do is to prepare your mom by telling her every detail about the girl, so that she knows what’s coming her way.
How to go with the conversation Thank you god
Hope that there’re no pauses in the flowing conversation as that’s super awkward, and can ruin the first meet of your girlfriend with your mom. Just give your mom some solid background details about her and then sit and relax as your mom shoots infinite questions to your girl. Don’t lose any hope, she’ll deal with every one of them.
Some conversations are better avoided I told you not to talk that
Before making an introduction, tell your mom not to play with those sensitive topics as they can be hurtful for both the parties. “So, when I can meet your parents?” “Actually my father is no more and my mom is sentenced imprisonment for 5 years” Oh I see.
Prepare your girl We gotta fight hard
Be smart to train your girlfriend as well. Your mom will definitely not get impressed by seeing her dimples only. Simple as before, tell every like and dislike of your mom to your girlfriend and fill her in about other important things as well.
Give your girlfriend an overview of your family That’s how we talk. *Crazy*
Tell your girlfriend about your family and the drama that happens on a frequent basis. We know it’s embarrassing, but you should tell your girlfriend every truth, so that the meeting can go smoothly and she gets a picture of your family. “My father is a chain smoker and listens to Justin Bieber”.
Praise her She got a first position in college
It’ll not look good if she sings her own praises in front of your mother. So you have to speak for her in front of your parents. It will make your girl feel really good, and also help your parents to see her as a perfect-match for you.
