I feel right at home with them sometimes I gotta top toe around her sister but other than that it's cool.


Awesome. Finally home.


My ass basically belongs to her mom and im the guy in the household, whose role includes but isnt limited to carrying groceries, helping with plants, helping with homework, and of course giving pleasure to the primogenita of the family ;))) RAWRRR


Comfortable most of the time.


Well, I've only met his parents once and that was over Skype, but they seem pretty easy to get along with. I don't see it being a problem. :)


I feel comfortable for the most part.
For the mist part? Explain... How can I do better?

I am comfortable! It's just the unknown of how genuine their feelings are. You know I'm waay cooler w/ your parents than my own but there is that little guard that was put up for protection. That's all. I think time will bring it down.

Comfortable


I do not feel at home with his family at all! His Dad's weird on & off (not perverted!!!), his bro talked shit behind my back when I thought we were friends, and his Mom was a PSYCHO when we told them we were pregnant! :0/ And I don't let things like that go. Had they been friends, they'd have been dropped & phone numbers erased.



Both of us are expat so basically we never meet each others family


With his dad? Very! Can't say his mom can be considered, since I haven't met her.


Great!


jajajja not at all XD im always awkward :(


Very. They are all loving and wonderful people, each in their own way.


As a generally quiet person, I felt pretty alright being around other quiet people. I suspect I'll have to break the ice at some point, but they seem to like me and I feel like they're good people.


Pretty well. I'm pretty comfortable at her parents' home although I have a hard time spending more than half an hour alone with her parents. I'm also not terribly comfortable being alone with her brothers although they're pretty nice guys. We just don't have much to talk about.
