haha, no offense OP, but I love it when guys don't know how to deal with their SO's parents. It just makes me look that much better when they bring me home for dinner.
It's not me, it's him. I was very nice and cordial the whole time.
Ok, maybe he is just a jerk, but maybe he just has expectations that you didn't meet. What did you wear to dinner? I like to overdress a little when I meet the parents for the first time. Was dinner at a restaurant, or at his house? If the latter, what did you bring with you? I usually ask what they are making for dinner and bring an appropriate wine (first make sure that they drink wine heh) alternatively, sometimes I bring flowers for the table and try to find out what her dad's interests are, and maybe bring something small for him that is in line with his interests, or at the VERY least I try to learn a little bit about his interests so that I can converse with him about it. If you showed up in jeans and a t-shirt empty handed with nothing to converse about, ready for a free meal you just shot yourself in the foot.
