had known each other for over a year and a half(basically dating but not offically)
& had been dating seriously for 7 or so months
assume you were fairly conservative, however could honestly see that the two were In Love w/ eachother
would you solely look at the time dating or how they obviously felt about eachother
would you look at the fact that they were both mature adults capable of making their own decision and asking for their blessing due to how they felt about family and respect.
Some intel you may need-
i am 28 she is 26, we are both responsible adults-
I have a good respectable job
I have the same high morals and values that are important to her and her family.
My parents have met her already and Love Her.
I would plan on meeting him and and asking him man to man
Im going to try not to but im guessing i will get emotional, as i always do when talking about our future
what could be done to up the chances when the time to ask comes
what would you guess he will say

I don't think you'll have any problems, go for it!
Needed to add more after reading "qwertations" answer...
It sounds as if you have already discussed this with your girlfriend. I agree with asking her first. Qwertations was a little rough on you in my opinion. I think that asking her father for her hand in marriage is more appropriate. Very old fashioned, that's what dads like.

You will not have a problem if you have not already heard about any problems with parents before.
What is important is the kind of plans and future you have discussed (careers, where to live, children, religeon, division of labor in the home, etc.). All the non-romantic stuff. Having sex is easy. Agreeing on the above can be deal breakers.

It sounds as if you already know the answer to your question but just need reassurance. You sound like a great guy and I could think of no reason for the father not to give you his blessing unless there's some information you haven't divulged.

If I were a parent, I would be offended that you respected my daughter so little that you had to run off and ask for her marriage. She's an adult; treat her like one and after she's agreed to marry you, if she has, announce the engagement together.
As a woman, I'd never marry a man who asks my father before asking me. That's just a warning sign of further disrespect and macho crap.

WOW can I introduce you to my daughter? Seriously, I would hope that he would respect the fact that you are coming to him to ask for his blessing. Just be your self when you talk to him and be honest with him. Good luck!

Since we don't know him we cannot say but personally I would give you my blessing.
