for the first time maybe not a kiss on the lips, it might be a bit much, however as the night goes on it could be more apropriate.
as with all things, timing is key, as the conversation goes about you, for instance how you two met and you guys tell the story, the moment comes to "and thats how we met" a peck on the lips is somewhat apropriate
hope that helps
Honestly it's a respectful thing not to kiss around eachothers families and friends.
I've been with my girlfriend for almost 4 years and we still don't do it.
My advice is to just subtly show that you two are close my grabbing/hugging him every once in a while.
No, kissing on the lips is intimate so I would not do that in front of my family. At most a kiss on the cheek but I'd rather not do that anyways. I wouldn't like it if my boyfriend kissed me in front of his family either
I think if you feel kinda awkward it would come off as awkward. Just do what makes you feel comfortable. I'm sure his family wouldn't care, but you don't want to stress more than you already are.
I feel weird I feel weird when I see sex scene in the movies.

You are meeting them for the first time so I think your mind is focused on them and not pleasing your guy. No need to kiss or even give a peck. You can be close to each other and let him hold you. But I think this depends on the peoples´ personalities. I don´t mind kissing in front of my family or my gfs family, but I usually just don´t do it.
Where is this happening? Are you really 25-29? Don't worry about this. If he says they won't care, they won't. If he has a normal family, they are thrilled he is bringing a girlfriend. They want to like you.
Parents aren't some alien species, they are just like you, only a bit older. Imagine yourself in 25 years with a son bringing a girl home for the first time. Wouldn't you want to make her feel welcome?
I think so. Why wouldn't I? They kiss their spouses, too. They need to grow up if they think it's (too) special when you kiss your significant other. I mean, yeah - I'd love it when I kiss m significant other. But for people to make a big deal about it is ridiculous. I mean, do you celebrate/cheer every time someone hugs another? No, of course not.
I have. So many times. Not making out, but very romantic style kissing. We kiss in general public too. I don't see the problem. Members of both our famils have partners they kiss. So yeah.
A light kiss is fine. No heavy kisses but a peck is fine. A strict no kissing policy is probably a little too cautious. Are there really a lot of situations you expect "kiss" or "no kiss" will be popping up?
I’m with you, shits weird. Like we get it you’re a couple. To me pda is kind of childish. Like if you’re off to the side and no one sees I guess it’s okay but to make a spectacal of it. Smh.
Like when are you gonna kiss? Between bites of turkey?
I kind of like showing restraint, might pass a note on a napkin that says when we get home I’m gonna tear that ass up. Build the tension. I kissed my wife one time in front of her parents, right after I said I do.
your being just a smidge extra they are going to assume that was his girlfriend you have kissed to reason to go over board but no reason to turn into a nun either that s not who you are as a couple
Yeah. To show my family I love my girlfriend, I will tongue rape her until my family forcefully removes me off of her. If not, then I'll carry her to the bedroom for sex while in tongue kissing
I wouldn't do that either so if I was you I'd talk to him again and just let him know you'd feel better meeting his family without the extra PDA.
yeah this is the first time he's ever brought a girl home to meet his family. he doesn't know what to expect. if he says no kissing because he thinks thats the best thing to do then thats the best thing to do. he knows his family better than you do so if i were you i would go with what he says.
I would not do anything of the sort in front of my ma or pa. Could be that I am young and stupid but the idea seems just wrong and uncomfortable and avoidable.
He would know the dynamic best, but if you want to keep it low key I'm not sure why that would be an issue for him to respect it.
I'm a pussy so no. My mom maybe but definitely not my grandma cause then she will start talking about marriage and shit.
Depends on the culture.
In our culture, any physical display of affection happens in private, behind closed doors. That includes kissing on the lips.
I kiss my girlfriend in front of my friends, my family, her family, her friends.
We don't make out in front of them, just kiss.
a fiance or a wife, yah maybe... but a girlfriend would be a bit rude !
I wouldn't. People don't kiss each other in front of other people in my family. I can only remember a few times my parents have kissed.
Not french, but yeah I'd kiss my girlfriend in front of family
Yes I would. It wouldn't be a full on make out session, but why not?
No. Its usually better to do a quick peck if you must but, no one wants to see that
