when a guy asks me out..... and I lke the guy i would tell him to contact my parents... even when I am not in my home country I would give him my parents' email address......... if I don't like him, a straight and appropriate no would be good.....
so in essence, a prospective boyfriend would have to meet my parents before we can have a relationship.... :)

This is just my own two cents worth, but I think maybe waiting a little while (at least until you've established that there is a relationship?) may be better... As you said, if you introduce each other at this point, the parents especially may perceive that there's something there and push you in that direction, even it it's not meant to be... I personally think waiting until this trip and introducing him to your Mom then might be better (less pressure, perhaps? Because the focus will be more on the trip than on the two of you?)

But... it's just my opinions :).
That is what's happening as of now. His mom met me when she picked him up from work one day, and yesterday at his house before we went to meet a ton of friends for dinner and a movie. My mom will meet him that Sunday morning. And a girlfriend of ours is coming, which will help to relax the atmosphere. Things are looking up :)

His uncle made it a little awkward yesterday.. but no one else is pushing anything.
