When I met the parents
When my g/f first met my parents for lunch, my Dad leant over and ate food off her plate. My mother was mortified, I was a bit confused, she thought it was wonderfull and that she'd been accepted.
We at B3ta are sure you've had worse than this though... tell us all about it.

ok then, my one
Had been seeing my (now ex) bf for a few weeks, his parents had started asking him when they got to meet me, so a time and date was set.
Then his mum's sister died.
The first time I met his parents, I also met his entire family and social circle, at the crematorium after an emotional service. Understandably, people weren't very chatty, but they seemed nice enough. I stayed half-hidden behind him the whole time.
Until we went to the wake. It was being held in one of the other sister's houses, nibbles and wine, that sort of thing. Many many people crammed into one average-sized living room.
Then all the "menfolk" get up to leave to the pub. I demand to ex-MrFlurble to go too, he refuses, leaving me with all his female relatives that I've only just met.
First hour was just awkward, then the drink kicked in and everyone started chatting. A few hours later we reached the point-of-too-much-drink, and much crying over the loss of their darling sister.
Nightmare eventually ended when the ex came back from the pub, and I dragged him home.
