Starting a new relationship right around the holidays can be tricky – do we buy gifts? Does he come to the Christmas party? Do we meet the parents? Mixed signals can start the entire relationship off on the wrong foot, and you don’t want him to think that you’re moving too fast. Here are a few tips from the Huffington Post on proper dating etiquette for new couples over the holidays—

1. Establish if you are giving gifts or not. If you have been together for awhile, chances are, you should be giving your beau a gift. However, if it’s a new relationship, the two of you need to decide if you are doing gifts.

2. Make sure you have an appropriate party dress to wear to his work Holiday party and/or to his family’s home. The right outfit is something festive yet conservative. Do not go with your new uber trendy outfit. And, if you are concerned that it might be too sexy, it is.

3. Don’t misinterpret what an invitation to his holiday party means. Sometimes work holiday parties are dated functions and if his has one, chances are he will invite you because he needs to come with a date. Other company’s do not allow guests. Don’t make assumptions; before you get upset that he hasn’t invited you, hint around about whether guests were allowed.

4. Only invite a new love interest to a holiday party with you if you can pay her appropriate attention. You don’t want to invite someone to go to an event with you and then leave her alone in the corner. And you don’t want to be so busy that your date will feel ignored such that he or she will look for attention elsewhere.
