I thought it was just one of those things everybody did. I would definitely ask, if anything just to be polite. If you are that close with her then you shouldn't have a problem asking the father that.
Is there any hard feeling between the two of you?

No theres no hard feeling between the two of us. I just dont see him that much, He works alot so hes in bed at like 9 at night to get up at like 5....So honestly we have never had like a deep conversation. I know its polite and i want to ask, itll just be dif.
I know he wouldnt disaprove hes not like that, and he likes me.
Its just im nervous thats all..i wouldnt know where to begin when doing it...do i go out for lunch? do i stop by his house? what? lol

Call him, and ask him to grab a bite, and that you would like to speak with him about something important. Also, make sure to mention not to say anything to her. You are a lucky man, already finding her bro, congrats, and I hope all goes well...

Ask both of her parents if you can. It'll come off as a sweet gesture - if they say yes. I take it you're friendly with them and that you'll get the thumbs up. It'll seem more romantic to your GF if she knows that you planned the proposal and that her parents approve.

I asked my ex,s father before I asked her.Its just a mark of respect thats all.
I would want my daughters boyfriend to ask me before asking my daughter just so that if I did'nt like him I could kick his ass and stick him on a boat with a one way ticket to the North pole in just his boxers LOL
I would ask if I were you imho

I say ask the daughter 1st, then tell the father, not ask, just as a sign of respect.

If you like the father and he likes you then you should ask him. If the guy has no clue that you guys are wanting to settle down then fuck it, he'll just ruin it all.
I'm getting to the point where I will have to make a dinner appointment as well. Good luck.
Did you figure out what to do about the ring thing?

sorry cnyc, but i think you gotta ask the girl's father. It is a very respectable thing to do.. The parents would love it. And ask boh of them not just the father.. Go over with a bottle of wine one day.. sit them down and ask them. ( you could takem both out to eat too) andyes make sure to tell them not to tell her.. SOmeone i guess don't like that.. But dude you gotta remeber that Those are her parents... Her family... you gotta show that respect first and formost.... peace and good luck

ask the father, you will earn more brownie points than you could ever imagine. I only saw my girl's father once every 3 months or so....he was in another state. But I found a way to meet with him and ask permission. It was the best thing I could have done to have his blessing.

It is just respectful. If you've already met the father, and your in good terms with him. When the time comes you want to ask HER to marry you, then it's a nice gesture to ask the father for permission. Especially if the family is old fashioned, he will respect you more and think you are more mature!
However, if your not in good terms with her parents, and they aren't nice people and treat you bad, they can go ____ themselves!!!

I didn't ask for permision but knowing her parents and how well we all get along now. I wish I had. but on that same note I know her family and they have a very hard time keeping something a secret so it would have probaly come out before I asked her and I didn't want that.

Wow thanks guys...
Im def gonna ask the father. Since she did say i should ask him.
(thats why i brought up this thread)
They are a catholic family, and are fairly old fashioned like someone said. I think it will show them a little more that im serious about her and i.
And i know it really has nothing to do with the father, its between her and i, but i think itll be more of a telling/asking type thing.
our future is what it is.'our' future, and no one can stand inbetween what the 2 of us want.
