so im watching don jon blush: why have i been avoiding watching this... i love it and hate it at the same time ) and theres a scene when the gf meets the parents and the first thing she says is "can i help you in the kitchen?"
now, granted, i honestly hate meeting parents and after having a bf that was super family oriented, i actually decline to do it unless i have reasonable expectations that the relationship is in it for the long haul (read: hasnt happened yet since then). but i know for a fact i never asked anything like that and it probably never would have occurred to me
i also think about dining etiquette. mine probably leaves a lot to be desired i know about napkin in the lap, elbows off the table, dont talk with your mouth full, but everybody does. i bet there are nicer manners out there too if i knew what they were
so, short of having to go to finishing school, im asking you guys. what sort of proper lady manners do you employ when meeting the parents, dining out, and various other social scenarios?
