ok, so last night CG said " I don't want to pressure you, but my friends really want to meet the woman that I'm head over heels with."
I said: "I don't feel pressured to meet your friends, but I don't want you to feel pressured to introduce me to them. So when you are comfortable, then you just let me know and we'll do it."
Friends..... YIKES. Meeting your significant others friends is always a little nerve wracking. Especially, because he has a lot of women friends and I am not into catty women. :) Unlike this group, we all know what they can be like. I am always getting some woman commenting on how I look and that I probably have a alternative reason to being with the guy I'm dating (example: me being a gold digger or looking for a father figure for my children). This time, I think I've figured out the strategy. Down play my looks. LOL. So just a tad of make-up, mascara, lip gloss and that's it. Dressing down a little, because I always dress very nice, but look a little more down to earth. I think going this route, may be the wiser choice. I want them to get to know "me", not judge the book by the cover.
It has nothing to do with me not being me, because I'll still be "me" in character, just not showing the fashion and hot looking chick that CG knows. LOL
Anyone else have to do this or done this? Thoughts?

Cat, by ALL means ask him!!!
I'd ask him. And if he says yes, I would just say you're not ready for all that. His buddies, sure. His buddies girlfriends or wives, sure. But ex g/fs or other women who were "in the running" are a bit too much too soon. I seriously think that is totally valid to say so.
