What are some ways to announce your new relationship to family and friends?

Cupid’s Advice:

As easy as it is these days to put yourself “in a relationship” on Facebook and upload some pictures of your significant other, there are more personal ways to introduce and officially announce your new romance to your loved ones:

1. Dinner and drinks: Why not get your family and friends together for dinner to meet your significant other? This way you not only have the opportunity to officially announce you’re dating, but you also give everyone an opportunity to get to know him or her. They’ll share in the joy of your new relationship just as much as you have.

2. Bring your partner along: If the thought of having a dinner in which your partner and new relationship are the main subjects makes you uncomfortable, consider a more low key way to include and introduce them to your circle. Bringing them along to a friend’s house party, a family birthday, or as your plus-one to a wedding, are opportunities you can casually announce your relationship.

3. Send an email: Not everyone has the luxury of living close to all their family and friends, but it’s important to still keep them updated on your life. Sending them a nice email updating them on what you have going on, including the news of your new relationship, will make your loved ones feel more in the loop despite the distance that separates you. You might even consider including a picture of you and your partner and a little synopsis of how the two of you met.
