The mother in law

As I will be arriving two or three days in Germany before my boyfriend, I get to be picked up at the airport by and spend that time with ... his mother.

This makes me soooo nervous, I've already met her and I think she liked me, but it will be very different spending so much time alone with her... With the cultural differences and all, I am so afraid of messing up with her, or doing or saying something wrong... I hope it will go well and we will get along.

Last night I dreamt that I was talking to her on the phone, and said something wrong without knowing it, and she got really mad and refused to speak to me!

Any bad or good experiences with mothers in law or tips for me?

I once had a similar situation as au pair in australie: I think I did everything wrong, but she loved me anyways

Dreams often show us the opposite of what will really go on. But, you seem to be so sweet & intelligent, I'm sure that everything will go all right.

awww, thanks you guys! I am a little bit more secure now, I think that when people see that you are willing to adapt to their cultures and ways of life, they forgive you your little mistakes...
