so I meet my girls parents in about a month and I start to think about it more and more. so why am I saying its a unique experience? the language barrier! I don't speak french besides a few basic words and they don't speak english, besides a few basic words.

sooo, what do you think?

I have been able to send a happy b day email to her mom and two others..she sent me two emails and a happy b day email as well (gf didn't even remind her too!! I am amazed). After some figuring out I found her mom is an extremly emotional cancer. haha.

In the next few weeks, cram as much french learning in as you can. Get one of those teaching CD's/DVD's, you can rent them from the library I'll bet...
It'd be a great cultural experience for you, and would impress them.

awwwwwwwww, meeting her parents, that's so sweet!!!

It will be an overwhelming experience for your girl having to interpret everything. I have been there.
It is a very humbling experience.
Good luck!
I'm sure you will learn a lot!

I was in a same situation as your girlfriend once and although it was pretty tiring to be in a constant "interpreter mode" everything turned out well and everybody had a great time.

Good Luck!
