    What to prepare!???


    Hi guys, need help!

    My SO and I will finally meet this summer.. Exactly 35 days from now..
    He wants to meet my family and he's bringing his dad with him..
    Im excited yet sooo nervous. I've been dreaming of this moment and now it will finally come true..

    BUT, what are the things I need to prepare for him and his dad to feel welcome and comfortable? SHould I let them stay in a hotel? (Our house is quite small )
    Should I plan out the things we'll do and places we'll visit?
    And honestly Ive been on a strict diet cause I dont want him to see me looking fat and ugly.

    This would be our first meeting and I want to make it really special for the both of us and our families.. need your advice.. Big thanks in advance!

    You don't really have to be on a strict diet. I assume he has seen pictures of you before? He already knows what you look like and obviously loves you. So no need to worry about that.

    It's also always good to have things planned out. What you want to do with him, what you want to show him. Of course you can also just let things happen, but I like writing down what to do the next time I'm with my SO.

    I'm also always staying at a holiday house. My SO's family does have a house, but they don't have a spare room and my SO doesn't have a double bed. Much more space and privacy at the holiday house then.

          I've been noticing that girls lately are so concerned about their weight!
          I mean, I used to be like that too, but my SO has told me time and time again that I'm perfect just the way I am, that I am beautiful. He doesn't want me to change. I'm not satisfied with how I look..but he likes it.
          You are what you are, he loves you, he thinks you're beautiful. That's all that counts.
          I haven't met my guy yet too unfortunately..but what I've done is I made a list of things I want to do before he comes here. Mostly cleaning.
          It might be a good idea to have them stay at a hotel...unless if you get your SO to bunk with you and his dad wherever there is room (plus it would suck not being able to sleep with him at night time, at least that's my opinion )
          If you have a thing for cooking or baking, you could do that the day before.

            Personally I would have some ideas of things planned out, restaurants to go to etc but no strict itinerary. That way you can get up in the morning, have some ideas of what to do and see what you feel like doing that day. (plus the weather might play a factor. You could plan an amazing day at the beach for Saturday then find it's pouring with rain! Best to play it by ear a bit.

            If noone in the family will be opposed to it I would recommend your so staying with you and his dad in a hotel. That way you and your so still get some alone time. (and I don't just mean for the naughties!) it's really important IMO when you first meet to have time just the two of you - work out who you are as a couple.

            On that note it might be nice to plan some a ticketed the families can do together (once they've got to know each other a bit) so you and your SO can have a date or two, just the two of you.

            Very excited for you!
            Tea and hugs make the world go round - don't ever discount the little things in life.


            Smiling away to oneself brings an obscene amount of joy when only you know the reason why your smiling. Pick something secret to smile about and let it light up your face all day long!

            And remember....Love really IS all around.

              First and foremost I'm so excited that you're going to meet your SO! You'll have a blast! But any who, I think it would be smart if they stayed at a hotel, unless you have an extra room for them. Also, planning things can be fun! Then you have options of what to do and not sitting around wondering what to do. Take lots of pictures when are with each other!!!!!

                My SO and I have been talking about things to do since we had a definite date that I would come visit for the first time...75 more days! LOL I told him I didn't necessarily want to do a bunch of stuff, (only gonna be there for 3.5 days ) I just want to see his everyday life! He's going to give me a tour of where he works (he's a correctional officer) so that when he talks about it, I can picture what he's talking about. He's also never been to my favorite restaurant and found out that its near by so he wants to take me there.
