Question Posted Wednesday September 29 2004, 5:20 pm

OK on Friday I'm going to my boyfriends away game. His mom is driving me there with her and I know im going to be so nervous. I dont want to say anything thats going to make me look stupid, but I know im going to end up doing that.. I always do. I was just wondering if you guys had any adivce on what I should do to be less nervous or not say anything dumb that I'll regret. Thanks SO much!!

OK, first of all, I dont think she'll view you as dumb. She knows that her son cares for you, so shes going to treat you like family. To break the ice, just start off by saying how much you appreciate her driving you to the game. then maybe you should mention how much you care about her son(if you and your boyfriend are serious).Shell feel more accepting of you if she knows that you two have something in common: you both love her son. I hope you lose your butterflies soon. Goodluck sweetie!

Well, try not to think about it. Think about the game, or talk about football, or something. Just try and be yourself, and don't let anything bother you. Hope I helped!

Make sure you ALWAYS think before you speak. That way you can lessen the possibility of saying something stupid. It's always worked for me. Parent's can be a hard pleaser. Hope I helped. ~Kimberly~

I would ask your boyfriend about some of the things his mom is into like hobbies and stuff. So that way you have subjects to talk about in the car if it gets quiet. Also be really polite and be reallly calm. Try your best not to get nervous it might be hard but just try. If she ask you some questions about school and stuff try to make your answers short but not to short. Also try to keep a conversation going.

Try to sound calm, just be yourself and act like nothing is bothering you. If you say anything dumb try to cover it up but laughing or something and when you talk to her look her straight in the eyes so she knows your not scared.

Try to sound smart, but not smarter than her. She'll probably ask what you're doing in school. Whatever you do, don't say nothing. Tell her what your doing in 2 or 3 subjects, don't tell her your whole schedule. MOST OF ALL be polite. This is VERY important, especially if it's the first time your meeting her. When she picks you up, thank her taking you to the game, and when she drops you off, thank her again.

Talk about that movie the Ya-Ya Sisterhood. Women just bond over that stupid movie and I don't understand it at all. If a girlfriend of mine ever tells my mom she likes the movie they instantly become best friends. That Freakin' movie...

sit in the backseat. dont start conversations, and think before you speak. or you could just use normal conversations like weather and family and stuff like that.

ha been there.
Just keep really quiet and dont giggle too much. Just talk like a really simple manner such as

"hello ma'am"
"thanks for picking me up"
"how was your day?"

like simple stuff, i know its pretty intense to be with you boyfriends mother alone..but just try to keep calm. dont think about it. think about you just being in there with her for 30 mins in the car or something. lol. <3

well good luck
