  1. Gift

Try to go with a bottle of champagne or a basket of pastries when you are invited to their home. If it is a public place like a restaurant, come along with some flowers for their daughter. These will go a long way in proving to them that you are the kind of guy that pays attention to their daughter’s happiness and that you will take good care of their baby girl.

Never feel shy to ask questions about their daughter, family, work and also offer intelligent answers when they ask about you and your background.

Try adding some humour and sound fascinating to them. This will keep them relaxed with you.
