Gaining trust takes time and involves showing a sense of responsibility. Since you want to gain the trust of your boyfriend's parents, here are some tips to make a good impression:
Dress neatly and cleanly.
Always greet both parents in a friendly and respectful manner.
If dining at their house, be sure and compliment the cook. Eat slowly, and clean up after yourself. Offer to help with the dishes. Remember to thank them for the nice dinner.
Be on time, or early, whenever you are meeting them. If you are going to be late, always call and let them know.
Do not overstay your welcome. Do not hangout for hours watching tv or doing nothing constructive.
