Pretty sure he has felt it too, and heard him almost trying to say it :DBut those three letter words haven't come out yet, but for sure know what my response will be when I hear them !!But any hints on that first parent meeting - I'm very out of practise!!!

KittieS is verified as being by the original poster of the question Thank you Denise - very nice advise and encouragement :) and yes it's going very well, I meet his friends for the first time this coming weekend :)I'm hoping the weather will be nice enough to wear a dress (British weather is so un-predictable) but thinking if not a tuxedo jacket with floaty shirt underneath and a nice pair of trousers and shoes should do the trick!I'm never nervous about meeting new people, but this is such an important meeting, especially as i have been warned to be quizzed by them (lol) I'm guessing it's an excellent sign that I am nervous on this occasion, but i guess if he's falling in love with me or so it seems... hopefully his parents will see the same as what he does in me!

 Congratulations! Sounds as if things are going well between the two of you if your bf wants you to meet his parents.
My recommendation: Just relax and greet them with warmth and courtesy (as I'm sure you already know to do). They will want to be friendly and pleasant because he's their son, and you are important to him. Give thought to your makeup and outfit. I wouldn't go for an extra short skirt or very low-cut top - forgive me, everybody has different dress styles, and I'm only mentioning that perhaps "less is more" for occasion tomorrow......
Good luck! Doubtless it will go very well.....
