Meeting gf's family. What do I wear?

My gf is pretty butch

Hey there!
Having been with my girlfriend about two years now and been in your position of 'meeting the parents', I get it - she's important to you so you want nothing more than to make a good impression. The right impression. I honestly would urge you to wear what you feel comfy in, something smart to show you take this seriously, but ultimately just be yourself. Her parents will be most influenced by your lovely personality and how you make their daughter feel, if you treat her rigt etc. Feel free to ask for more detail. But just be comfortable! And try not to stress on the day, hard I know, but it usually goes smoother than you would have anticipated

Something tells me your girlfriend's revelation will not be much of a surprise to her family.

Wear whatever.

I really know about her parents is he's a banker, she's a homemaker and they're both really conservative. Exactly the type to look me up and down and make a judgement before I even open my mouth. The issue is that my dress choices tend to be like low cut or backless or with like a slit on the leg. More sexy than smart, because that's how I feel comfortable and in my previous relationship when it looked like I might meet the parents (didn't in the end but it was like a very real possibility for a while there) basically everyone I know advised me against wearing any of them lol. So basically I don't want to look like someone they could object to, or at the very least if they do object to me I'd rather it be because I'm a woman than because I'm dressed like a sl*t, if that makes any sense. Basically if they hate me I don't want it to be my fault.

Though I'd never advise anyone to dress with anybody else other than themselves in mind, I totally understand. Then perhaps go with something a little more conservative. If it was that much of a worry surely your girlfriend would've given you a nudge and asked to keep it low key? Still, I wouldn't worry

The blood of your enemies.

I get it. My gf is really sweet but also really panicky about this whole thing. Her panic might actually be making me panic lol. I've run a couple past her and depending on how stressed she is when I ask I either get some variation of "you look beautiful in anything... but" followed by some version of my mum might not like it/my dad and brother might like it too much or "babe, I love you but not right now" because not only is she stressed about this, she's also in the final week of 2 separate deadlines. She has something worth half her module credit due tomorrow, plus 40% of another module due Friday morning with this dinner on Friday night and it's like the last thing she needs but she won't hear of rescheduling. She's spending tonight in the library because half her books can't be checked out. I'm heading over later with coffee, turkey sandwiches and reassurance. If she didn't have the deadlines to compete with then I'd ask her to come shopping with me or something and let her steer me towards something her parents wouldn't hate, but she does. Friends have similar deadlines, so I can't drag them away, either. I'm the only person in my friend group that's already submitted my first round of coursework.



Exactly the impression I'm going for. Cheers, mate.
