Slow down on leading with your money foot. Are they rich,poor in between? Show them you are happy together, that you're

kind and will provide for and protect her. Bring food to eat together at their home and take them to dinner, your treat nothing more.

My in laws were not trusting of me a foreigner being deeply involved with their daughter despite my helping to take care of her for a long before we met in person. She continued on together despite their fears. We made decisions together and set up our home and shop. After the first lengthy visit and seeing us together papa gave his blessing upon my departure and said bring on the babies,, married or not, which gave us a laugh but I assured everyone not until we are married and can be together.

They could see we were happy together and I was going to push back against anyone who tried to hurt her and shut down the money grabbers who put her in the middle to share her good fortune. Eventually you can show some generosity when they understand you can and will say no. Don't think money buys respect with everyone in the family. Some are respectfully grateful and some are just happy they got their share and waiting for the next opportunity to receive something for doing nothing from the rich guy. Just my experience and opinion.

Well, you are kind to want to make a good impression but this is also an opportunity for you. Be polite. Don't ask too many questions. Be observant. It is also not unusual for people to NOT make introductions by name, as we tend to go around in a circle in the West,.. so, you may not know who everyone is right off.. but be relaxed and go with the flow - your GF will probably coach you.

For you: - Does the family drink? Do they gamble? Are they careful with their money? If they expect you to buy liquor and beer, that will likely not stop and might intensify. You might feel it is no big deal the first time, but it could become a constant expense.
