Well I'll try to add some content by talking about myself, because everyone's gotta be interested in that...
I first met my boyfriend the end of last July. At some date in the end of October, we officially became boyfriends. However, our friends were using that word before that point. Also, we were exclusively dating each other from the start. At first, it was just happenstance that neither of us had anyone else (it's not uncommon with online dating at least to be working through multiple guys at a time to see who sticks) but it was definitely what both of us wanted before we made it official in October. Before we called each other boyfriends, he had nearly moved in with me (he was otherwise living with his parents 8 minutes away, so it wasn't hard for him to end up at my place nearly every night).
Anyway, both of us seem to be using the date in July when we first met as our 'anniversary' or 'how long have you been dating?' answer, but some friends have said we should use October. I don't want to break any 'rules' so I'm curious what you think.
I had met his dad and step-mom before, though I wasn't officially introduced as a boyfriend. He thinks they know anyway since I've been around for a while.
He met my parents recently when the two of us went to vacation at their place for a week. It went well. My parents are so accepting and care-free about the whole gay thing. I think it confuses my bf since his family isn't quite to open or accepting.
I just met the rest of his family at a family BBQ. His mom knew I was a boyfriend, but the rest of the family probably thought I was just a friend. His mom pushed me into the pool at one point, so I think all is good. Or she really does want to kill me.
I have something else to add, but this is getting too long so I'll add it later. Hopefully the suspense makes this thread more active
