I would like to ask my girlfriend's father for his blessing (which she already knows about). I already have something in mind that I plan on saying but I'm not sure if it's good enough. So I was hoping on getting some suggestions on what to say/ask him.

I say this as a recent mother-of-the-bride.
No matter what dreams we parents may have for our daughters (she'll marry a doctor/lawyer, etc.), what is really the most important thing of all is that she is loved. It doesn't matter how much money you make, or who your parents are, or what career you plan to have for the future. It ONLY matters that you love her, and will treat her in a way that will never let her forget that.
Whatever you do, don't act as if you expect him to say no. If she loves you, then you should absolutely believe that he'll give his blessing, and you should walk into the conversation with that in the forefront of your mind.

together as this won't be the romantic answer and it could desire to no longer be what you p.c. to hearken to, I propose you wait a pair of extra months a minimum of. Marriage is a life-time dedication, and you will't probable understand sufficient some guy or woman or how your dating could desire to enhance after 2 months. think of approximately it this way, if she extremely is the only for you and you incredibly are meant to be together, waiting yet another couple of months will do no longer something to alter the form you experience approximately one yet another. yet while the dating won't be able to stay to tell the story a jiffy longer and not making use of a life-time assure than you ought to not be getting married besides. So wait, enable the dating improve and at last it is going to be the impressive time.

Just express how you feel about his daughter. make sure he knows that you genuinely love her. Let him know that you plan on loving her for the rest of your life, and that your going to be good for her. Then ask him for the blessing

I asked my father-in-law, but not neccisarly for his blessing. More to let him know I was GOING to ask (it didn't matter if he didn't want me to.) But I would just suggest you sit him down privately, and let him know that you are planning on asking your girlfriend for her hand in marriage and would like his blessing. Just say it straight out.

Meet up with her dad and tell him how much his daughter means to you. Tell him how much you love her and would be honored to marry her and take care of her for the rest of your lives. Then ask him. It's a good idea to tell him how you feel about her and then ask him. My fiance asked my dad for permission before proposing to me. I don't know exactly which words were exchanged, but it was along those lines.

Show him the ring to prove you are serious and express your love for his daughter. Please consider meeting with both parents if they are both in the picture. I wouldn't want her mom to have any hard feelings about not being included.

Sit him down and tell him your feelings. Ask as though you expect the answer to be no (reverse psychology).
