Had that situation and I will tell you honestly..you have to be yourself. Parents can seem to just tell when someone is being fake about who they are or trying to impress them.If their son picked you, then they will more than likely see in you what he saw and parents really do want to trust that their children have learned or were taught well by them and that their choice in a mate will reflect that. If you want physical things, don't dress to provocatively, do fawn all over their son in front of them (like always kissing and hugging him, smiling sooo hard at everything he does and says, pointing out cute things about him that you find so sweet..things like that), you can talk about their son to them but don't go overboard and just gush everything...just have polite conversation with them. ALSO..big thing, if he is very family oriented, try to mingle with other members of the family, let them get to know you. Don't just sit in the corner or just hang withhis parents and no one else, it would be like you were really obvious in trying to get brownie points, even if you weren't. They all will be watching you, in their own ways, whether you notice it or not, just be comfotable and go with the mind set that this is not the "meeting" that will determine if you and he will marry, just go and be natural. By the way, I married the guy I am speaking of and his parents let me know that they knew right away what kind of woman I was just by how I interacted and handled myself in the situations I found myself in when it came to interacting with them all...and his family is HUGE!!!!!!!!
Good luck and keep me posted!!
