If you have been dating a Hong Kong girl for quite a while and things are going pretty good. You also feel she might be your Miss right. Despite the comments about pitfall about dating Hong Kong girls, you don't have the usual problem.
Until one day your girlfriend says: "Sweetheart, can you meet my parents next weekend? How about Sunday? They really want to meet you" It's the first time for you to meet her parents. Now the fun part really begins. What should I do? Any help?
Actually, take a deep breath at first. It won't be that bad. You might have heard lots of myths and stories. The truth is your parents of your HK girlfriend are not that hard to please. What they want is the best for their daughter. To be frank, you might think they are money oriented, but they are just not that bad in most cases. What you need to do is to do some preparation and you will be great.
Dress to impress: First impression is very important. The first step is to find some neat and smart clothes. If you don't have it, go to buy some. In fact, your Hong Kong girl should give you the best advice about what you should wear for the occasion. She can also go shopping with you if you both have time.
Career: You should talk about your career and goals, more importantly, your ambitions to make money. I understand not everyone works as a doctor or lawyer. However, as long as you can present well and convince them you have a great career. You are going to the right direction.
Show your respect: Although you need to be confident during the meeting, you should show respect to parents and other relatives at the event. It's very possible that many relatives or friends will join the event to see the foreign boyfriend. Also remember don't drink too much otherwise it's easier to say something stupid and make mistakes. You do not want to leave an impression that you are an alcoholic.
In the end, it's OK for you to feel a bit nervous if it's your first time to meet an Asian family. It's a very important step for your relationship with your girlfriend. I am sure you will feel more comfortable when you have more chances to meet her family in the future. Good luck!
