Not exactly 1st impressions but..
with both of my last gfs, also ended up meeting very eccentric parents.

2 years back, I had a little summer relationship with one, and ended up meeting her mom 1st (this is right at the end of jr high). I liked the woman, rather nice, and for some reason associated with being an ex-hippie in my mind. She managed to drive us places that summer, different activities, pretty fun for a summer usually spent where I am sitting right now. Weird thing was when one of the girl's friends tagged along and it turned into weird conversations about cleavage and constant poking. Just imagine being a teenage buy surrounded by 3 women doing that and one of them being 40 or so...kinda odd.

But that was nothing compared to her father. Guy was either at work, downstairs in the basement on the pc or from time to time going in and out of the kitchen to get another beer (this was the only one of his modes i had to get my tounge out of the girl's mouth and pretend not to be doing that kind of ungodly business in his house when he is around :)). The girl didn't like her dad much, I usually didn't bother to talk to him, so it was rather good.

Until this one time..

One of the girl's brother's friends managed to fuck up their pc and blamed everything on me (bitch). I was around the place for a few days hearing from others that he as furious and later didn't come there for a month since my girlfriend flatly and dully said 'he will rip your balls off if you come'. So how do I patch that up with a large, American plumber with an obviously short fuse? He had a soft side for....get this...Fiddler on the Roof! So, I had to with a rented DVD, down the stairs to the basement, shaking from fear and waving a mix of incense and cig smoke from my face to apologize and 'casually' give him the DVD I rented. Peace was settled with the terms of 'stay the fuck away from my computer'. Fair nuff, I had better things to do when I was over anyways ;).

With another girl I was kind of amazed that her parents openly scolded her like a kid and put her down when I was around (even when I just got to know them). Then there is this one time that her mom walks in the room to ask us something wearing a long shirt. I learned 5 minutes later, long shirt was the only thing on her at that moment. The girl told me the parents used to walk around the house nude in the summer...i mean..wow. I didn't like either of them much, not to mention her mom managed to call me something rather vulgar over something rather trivial once.

I learn my lessons from relationships like that.

On a vaguely related note, the 1st time I went to one of my female friend's house and up to her room to watch some movie (no nothing happened, i got standards, sorta), she walks into the room at one point going 'oh my mom likes you and thinks you would make a good bf'.

(no, i didn't, not even after that)
