There are things to remember when you introduce your boyfriend to your family and friends.
Introducing your boyfriend is exciting because you’re uniting people who are really important to you, but it’s important to also take your boyfriend into consideration and how he feels about it. It can be scary and nerve wracking for him.
Here are the most important things to remember when you introduce your boyfriend to your family and friends.
Snapshot Survey
1 He’s Nervous
Even if your boyfriend is a super-confident guy generally, when he meets your friends and family there will be some nerves there because it is a big deal for him. Bear this in mind because it may explain the reason why he might act a little differently. This is one of the most vital things to remember when you introduce your boyfriend to your family and friends.

2 Don’t Add Pressure
Yes, introducing your boyfriend to your friends and family is important to you, but the likelihood is, if you love him, then (unless he’s psycho) your loved ones will love him too. Don’t put pressure on yourself or him to make it a completely faultless meeting, just relax and enjoy it.

3 He’s Trying His Best
He might say something and you think "Oh God, what was thinking?" But the fact is in that situation, something may slip out that he didn’t mean, but the bottom line is that he’s trying his best and the fact he’s doing that shows how much you mean to him.

4 Don’t Make It Too Overwhelming
Meeting parents can be stressful enough, but if you take him to a massive family event and introduce him to every family member and friend under the sun, it’s going to be a bit overwhelming. Some guys may not mind that, but others may prefer to do it gradually so it’s less intense. Think about what would work best for your guy.

5 He Really Wants to Make a Good Impression
He loves you and if he wants to properly make a life with you, getting the approval of your friends and family is really important to him. He won’t want to sabotage this, so just trust him to be the amazing person he is and if he goes overboard with the charm or clothing choice, remember it’s just because he’s out to impress and that’s very sweet.
