Daughter's Hand In Marriage

    As long as none of the parents are involved in the selection process, I'm fine with it. The decision should be exclusively the couple's and no one else's.

    And Violette, the whole "you won't get near my daughter without putting a ring on her finger, even though you two hardly even know each other" is beyond fuked up. But that has nothing to do with asking a girl's hand in marriage, at least not for the sake of the initial post.

            hahaha... that was toooo funny.

            as for the topic of the thread:
            I would want the guy I'm going to marry to ask my dad...my dad is to traditonal, if the guy doesnt ask then he'll assume that the guy isnt a "man." but I would only want the guy that I'm going to marry to let me know or at least give me a hint, cause I wouldnt want to get my parents hopes up of a possible marriage that when the guy asks me I'd say NO.

              This is all rather silly. What business is it of the parents?

              As Emil said, it isn't their decision. They have nothing to do with it.

                    I can see the problem with that in some cases, but let's not go there...

                      True, I don't think it's any of the parents business. However it is nice to go and tell the parents "I asked for your daughters hand" or "I'm going to ask for your daughters hand." But mostly it should be up to the daughter. Although in some cases I think the parents should step in...

                      1. If the daughter is too young 16-19
                      2. If the guy is an abusive, controling, dushbag.
                      3. I can't think of anything else maybe you guys can...

                      Other than that I think the girl decides, although "telling" the parents is not a bad idea.
