    he's a huge fan apparently

    ask him who his favorite PJ drummer is/was.
    and also what his favorite cd/album was.
    I love to turn you on

    Do you have long hair?















    When my sister's bf showed up for the first time my dad greeted him by saying, "grow tits or cut your hair!" Heh heh heh I loved that one.

    Seriously though, Saturnal's advice is excellent. Good luck tonight.

    That's normally my brothers job... actually he's not that bad.

    Good luck C. You never know, he might turn out to be a Pearl Jam fan!

    my ex was meeting my family and he was like "I'm mostly nervous about meeting your brother"

    I'm like "why???"

    he's like don't brothers get all protective of their sisters and stuff? (he doesn't have any sisters) and I was like ummmm....maybe but definitely not mine.

    seriously a guy could walk in, slap me on the ass, call me ho and make me go fry him some meat, and my brother wouldn't look up from his book. no one in my family could really care less about who I date! (which is strange since they're overly involved in everything else!)

    NIIIIICE! DTL's got a woman.

    In my experience, here's what's REALLY important (no joke):

    1. Look straight in his eyes when you shake his hand, and shake it firmly. And stand close to him, so you're not reaching out with your arm too far. You should be able to keep your elbow almost at your side and just extend your forearm. Stand up straight, but bow your head slightly when you shake it while maintaining eye contact the entire time. This may sound dumb, but I swear to god, almost EVERY dad I've met liked their first impression of me because of this.

    2. Don't call him "sir" and try and kiss his ass. If he says "hi, I'm Joe", say "nice to meet you, Joe". If he doesn't specify, call him "Mr. <whateverhislastnameis>".

    3. If he's not smiling and laughing, then you shouldn't either. If he is, then perk up.

    4. Don't lie, no matter what the subject is...even if she asks you to. Trust me, even if she gets mad at you, it'll pay off. He'll remember that. And if you don't know the answer to one of his questions, or don't understand him, say so. Don't try to give some bullshit job interview answer.

    5. Ask him about stuff in his life that he prides himself on...might have to get some info from the girl about that.


    Do all that, and he'll love ya.
    wow. thanks man! ill defintely take this advice.

    Well, if I was the dad, I'd kick your ass for that especially if that polo had a popped collar. But that's just me. If you show up dressed in elk hide with a knife between your teeth, you're in.

    dude, you are reading into this way too much.

    just show up, be a nice guy, prove to him you aren't an asshole that is just out to bang his daughter, laugh at his shitty jokes, shake his hand, and call it a night.

    wear whatever you think looks presentable.

    Actually, if I were a guy, it would be so tempting. Just to see what his sense of humour's like. :o:D

    Do you normally wear them? If so, sure. If not, then that'd be a lie. And that would put you in complete violation of rule number 4 ;)

    is her dad a gay golfer?

    if so then yes... if he is normal.. then wear jeans and a t-shirt that says "i'm gonna hump her"
