Here are my friends...

When and how should you introduce your significant other to your friends for the first time? Its a tricky situation because if you act too soon he/she may think that you are too serious and if you don't do it soon enough then you aren't serious enough. So when should you do it? 2 months? 3 months? 4 months? More importantly how is he/she going to meet you friends for the first time? All 30 of your friends at a bar for the first time? (Could be a bit intimidating) A small group of your close friends out for drinks? (Could create a more comfortable atmosphere) Is it best to have a "drinking" environment to the first time meeting your significant others friends to help ease the nerves? (Nothing like liquid courage) I think the ideal way to meet a significant others friends is a small group of 3-4 out for drinks after dinner. That way you get your quality time with your significant other and then get to see the other influences in his life. A small group meeting allows a more personal conversation for your significant other to have with your friends rather than the feeling of being an outsider, provided your friends and significant other aren't both extremely shy. The right time to meet your significant others friends is when you feel most comfortable with each other. I mean you can be dating/talking to someone for 2 months and hanging out with them every single day or your can be dating/talking to someone for 6 months but hanging out with them once every 3 weeks. All in all like most things in relationships, it entirely dependent on your and your significant other and your relationship on how you do things.
