No, her pops and my pops were deceased. We dated for a little while and she was about to be pushed away a long ways and I was her knight in shining armor rescuing her. True story dat.

Also, I never meant to create the impression that I don't care whether her dad/family like me or not - I care about that very much. I just don't see how asking for their blessing/permission would do anything to strengthen that relationship, unless it's something that they specifically want.

I did ask.
Must have forgot at the time that tradition is to ask the father because I ask both my wife's parents at the same time. |

Still wouldn't be my decision. If I knew the guy was some lowlife, I might take that up with my daughter (not that I have one now) and try to smack some sense into her (uh, not literally), but in the end that's something she has to figure out. And like others have said, what if I said no? It's not like I could do anything to stop it.

Although thru my observation most woman who have a loser b/f husband etc etc generally go for the same exact type once they drop the first one, women are strange creatures but it's cool cause they can get on facebook and complain about the same shit over and over again
