Hi, I don''t plan on asking my Girlf''s father for permission to ask for her hand in marriage...
For me, this is a wierd one cause I am very traditional but sorta want to leave this part out......
I get on well with her parents, and would easily be able to ask, and have no doubt he would approve - BUT, I figure that, being in our late 20''s, she is old enough to make the decision for herself.....
I think she would like me to ask her father - but I just really want to do this my way.......
I''m not sure why I feel this way - I guess I feel that this should be OUR decision, and not anyone else''s to have a hold over..like this is the start of our life together as a married couple and I want the decision on how/when to be OURS.....does that make sense??
do people think this is OK? Or should I ask anyway?
Ideas on whether this is acceptable - especially from the ladies out there!
