1. Actively participate in the conversation
Even if you're naturally shy, don't be stingy with words when interacting with his family. Take the initiative to speak. If you can't think of other topics, try starting with his childhood anecdotes or life experiences. Parents are always happy to share their children's stories, even if they're already adults.
2. Don't say what shouldn't be said.
One of the simplest ways to win over his family is to avoid topics that could create tension. For example, if his parents disapprove of his video game playing or are unhappy with his current job, don't bring up those topics unnecessarily.
3. Do not respond rudely.
If a topic makes you feel awkward or uncomfortable, don't respond rudely. Stay calm and respond as respectfully as possible.
4. Talk to them about topics they are interested in.
One of the topics older people love to talk about is their hobbies, such as photography, painting, singing, etc. You might as well use this as a starting point to quickly start a conversation.
5. Dress appropriately
You certainly don't need to wear formal attire; casual clothes can help you connect with them. If you're really unsure, you could ask your boyfriend what his family's style of dress is like.
6. Take the initiative to invite them
Only when his family gets to know you better will they be more likely to like you. On ordinary days, you can invite them to meals, see plays, or organize a "family dinner" to let them see your cooking skills.
