Snake Scores!!!

I have a movie date Saturday night!!! Woohooo! I'm grounded (perpetually) so I have to lie to my parents and tell them I have work when I actually don't. Her parents are overprotective so her dad will be driving her there That gives me no time to talk If I was driving her there I'd go 20mph She's really sweet, pretty and smart (she just got a 1470 on her SAT ). She's a junior, a year younger than myself. Any ideas on how to get around this overprotectiveness?

Go slow and get to know her parents. Drop by on Sunday afternoon and be well dressed. Be friendly to her folx and respectful. Smile. Do that a few times and when they get to know you and like you they will prolly loosen up..

(they may even encourage her to see that nice young man )

LOL yeah, listen to surreal. I suggest that you don't try and act too nice around the parents. They do know what's going on.

take interest in something her father likes, be his friend if you can

try not to say anything which is an opinion, over protective people are usualy conservatives so think conservatively, don't wear any earings, have a stupid haircut or slouch when you walk.

finaly - LEARN PROPER TABLE MANNERS!!! don't hold your fork like you are stabbing whatever it is (like i do), don't talk with your mouth full, pronounciate your words correctly, don't use slang, say 'excuse me' instead of 'move please' (that's what i say )

good luck

yeah and call her pretty and all that crap that goes with it

just be a gentleman, and act like how you would wanted to be treated

if she is really smart, her parents may be really smart, and may expect their little girls boyfriend to be really smart aswell. I suggest taking along an encyclopeadia, or maybe a dictionary, just in case...

[Chooco]

the main thing which judges how they see you is HOW YOU SPEAK!

if you use words which sound nice such as 'articulate' and actually use them in proper context in a clear voice, they will think you are intelligent even if you don't know squat

[sven222]

"excuse me mam, please pass the articulate"
*the whole room stares at you in disbelief*
"what? I used a big word, arent you pleased?"
lol
but yes i do agree chooco, as long as you know what the word means

[Chooco]

"i took my dog to the vet because he had a problem with his insite"

"my computer is rated at 2 giga scuzzies (SCSI)"

"i'm very indiginous for my age"

"i like math class, especialy the part about stoichiometry"

"Netherlands isn't a real place, that's where peter pan goes in that adventure of his"

man did i get off topic on this one lol

Just be an overall nice guy and strike up conversation with her parents when you see them. They'll loovvvvvvve you.
