MEETING YOUR PARTNER'S PARENTS FOR THE FIRST TIME, AVOID DOING THESE 7 THINGS.
First impression we know matters alot, It is a major step in a relationship. This first impression can turn out to be a lasting impression be it positive or negative.
Well, I will be listing below 7 things you Should avoid doing when Meeting your Partner's Parent for the first time
1. PLAYING WITH YOUR PHONE
Some of us are so addicted when it comes to pressing of our phones. You will be having a conversation with somebody only for the person to be rightly fixed on her phone.
Avoid being on your phone, texting, Checking your mail, or Chatting. Sometimes most of us do it unknowingly. It is true some persons does that just to keep themselves busy ,but your spouse parents might feel dismissed and think you are not interested in getting to know them. Especially, the would be Mother in-laws. So avoid your phone at that first time.
2. LYING TO MAKE YOURSELF LOOK GOOD
Being fake instead of your real personality is a mistake that can get your partner's parents upset, and even your partner. They not knowing who you are now does not mean they won't get to know you later on which could cause damages if all you said about yourself was all lies.
If you have told your partner the truth about you, and your partner has accepted the kind of person you are, hisoor her parents should also be able to do the same. So there's no need of lying to attract likeness.
3. BRINGING UP A CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC FOR DISCUSSION
Please don't bring up topics like Politics, Religion or sex for discuss, even if you know that your believe are in line with your Partner's Parent. Some people still consider it bad for bringing up such discussion before them. Concentrate on getting to know them more than those topics. If they keep discussing such topics among themselves, do more of listening.
4. MAKE YOUR SPEECHES BRIEF
Despite them getting to want to know more about you, they also won't want to spend the entire time listening to your life story. Avoid telling them stories about how your parents divorced while in your tender age. Make your speeches short and interesting.
5. PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION
This can be very wonderful, but there is an appropriate time for it. This doesn't mean you have to be cold, distant and robotic. Feel relaxed, interact with them gently, smile and be friendly. But make it neutral, rather than behaving or making it look like you are desperate to have them as in-laws.
6. DO NOT FINISH ANY FOOD GIVEN TO YOU
When served whether the food is much or little, delicious or not never you finish it, never you ask for alcohol if you are asked for a choice of drink. Don't be carried away. This is very important.
7. DO NOT PASS THE NIGHT THERE.
Noatter the persuasion, avoid passing the night in their house on your first visit.
And if you must, avoid sleeping in the same room with your Partner. Most parent does go with the ideology of you sleeping with your partner in the same room as far as you guys ain't officially married yet.
