A little preparation goes further than a lot of nerves.

Ask your date what would help — every family is different, and they know theirs best.

Arrive on time and let the conversation be ordinary. Nobody remembers a perfect first impression as fondly as they remember someone who was easy to talk to.

Follow their lead on affection and formality until you have a clearer read on the family's own style.

Meet someone who shares what matters
