...brother? He won't even say anything? He's not the most outgoing,social guy. He was home schooled all his life and hardly ever was around anybody that wasn't his family. We met at college and he was the one who came up to me but he was terrified,I could tell. We've been dating for 2 years now 
and it's been beyond wonderful. I love him to death but we're visiting my parents I'm scared he's going to pass out from panicking.
We're visiting my parents and we are staying in my old bedroom. Him and I both,before my parents would separate us but at our age,they don't bother anymore. He went to get some water one night and came back out of breath. The next morning my Dad said he just came to see what the noise was and my boyfriend ran back upstairs. So when I brought it up with my boyfriend he just said he didn't want to be alone in a room with my Dad because he's not comfortable and might say something and end up "going missing". Nothing I said changed his mind on that one. He just as scared of my Mom as he is my Dad and my Mom's the nicest woman on earth. She told me today she's afraid to say anything to "the poor boy because he might wet himself". All the times she's said something to him(when I wasn't right next to him) he jumped,stuttered and then came to find me.
He's only like this around people he doesn't know at all/that well/want to make and keep a good impression with. I feel bad for him in a way because it would (to me) suck if I was freaked out by every little word someone said to me. How can I help him be more comfortable around my parents? I love him and I know he loves me. We talk about a future(getting married,having kids,etc) all the time and when we do get married he'll have to be able to actually talk to his in-laws. His parents and I get along great. They're the sweetest people on earth,his Mom is a little less shy than he is so maybe that's where he gets it from. Also my big brother is coming over Saturday so how do I introduce my boyfriend and him(the first time he came home with me he only met my parents,my brothers military and was gone)?
