Yeah, and I was a nervous wreck. Something came up and I had to cancel my plans to meet him for lunch, so I did it over the phone.

Yes I did. I wish her dad would have said no though.

If you want her father to ever be a positive influence in your life, her life, or the lives of your future children, you will ask him. If you don't and she hates her father, she's probably immature and you should dump her before she steals half of your shite.
um, you seriously wouldn't want to be a part of your grandchildren's lives if your son-in-law didn't partake in a practice based in archaic tradition? you can say it's a sign of respect all you want, but it's still based on the sense of the father owning his daughter and deciding her future.

Dude was long dead. Besides, I married when I was 39–like I need someone's permission at that age?

Same here. I will probably laugh at a young man about to marry one of my daughters. Like "You sure about this, young man? Have you met her mama?" I couldn't handle this gesture without laughing. Fact.

Remember the circle of trust, thats all you need.

Jesus Christ you are fricking dense. No one is trying to champion the cause of misogyny or "man owns woman." Her dad's a great man, and I do this out of respect. No deeper meaning or indication of man > woman here.

Yes I did for my first wife. It didn't take so, No on the second wife and it has been 23 yrs now.

and that's ALL I'm saying is I'm against. I don't want my daughters to feel owned when they are 23-25 freaking years old.
I'll like the guy or not but I'll respect her decision as long as he's not hurting her in any way or exposing her to any potential harm(drug dealing for example).

lol
I guess that's why I asked for my father in laws blessing. I was going to marry her either way.

I thought I was going to have to do this as they live in Virginia.
Instead I cornered him in the laundry room at a beach house in Florida. Gotta strike when you get the opportunity

at the very least, both parents should be asked. asking the father, whether intentionally or not, still implies that the mother's opinion matters less. the parents should only be involved in the decision if the daughter/son asks her/his own parents for advice.

Yes. We were at a family cookout, and we were shooting the shite about a Jeep he had built. We somehow got on the topic of her and I, and I told him my intentions and asked for his blessing. Truthfully, I think I said something like "I want to make sure you are okay with that".
It was very easy, and he was very appreciative.
Mine told me the same thing when he was giving her away at the wedding. He said "no returns".
