A good way to see how well you and your partner will interact with others is to venture out to a party you have been invited to. It is easy to skip these parties and I will be the first one to tell you being trapped at a boring party is not very much fun. First thing to do is give your and your partner a way out, tell the host or hostess you can only stay for an hour, then if the party is lame you are only there for an hour, on the other hand you can stay longer if you both are having a good time. Always respect your partner if they want to leave. Never ignore a request that your partner is not having a good time. Drinking is fine at these parties as long as one of you is sober enough to drive. As I mentioned earlier this will help tell you how well the two of you are as a couple it tests all the things you might have trouble with later on in your relationship. If you can make it through a friends party and still find the enjoy each others company more then the other people at the party you are well on your way to building a solid relationship. However if you find that you can't find happy ground at the party or your partner is snubbing you for the cute little lady in the corner you have now seen the red flag. Sure these parties might not be the most fun you have ever had but they will show you a thing or two about your partner.
