Nervous?
Today, I met my boyfriend's parents for the first time. They jokingly asked me if I was only with him for his money. I didn't hear them properly so I just smiled and nodded. They now think I'm a gold digging bitch. FML

You walked into that one.

That's a pretty crappy joke for a first meeting. I find them to be the pretentious bitches. If they were joking, wouldn't they take your response as joking also?

Same comments over and over. Sorry OP but YDI. Good luck with the damage control

I would quickly say "I was joking!". Hopefully it all works out, OP.

No OP, if they were reasonable people, they'd think that either you had a sense of humor, or you didn't hear properly. If they're not reasonable people, why do you give a shit what they think?

That's when you say "I'm sorry, I didn't catch what you said. Would you mind repeating?" instead of just smiling and nodding. I don't understand why nobody ever seems to want to do this.

can't give you advice on what to do since it already happened I would just try not to spend his money

Did you explain that you did not quite hear them? Next time just ask someone if they could repeat what they said. I have to do it from time-to-time, no one really seems to mind.

Guys, though, maybe she just thought they said something else and didn't have no clue. It's a YDI if she had no idea what they said.
