[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't want to do it unless I knew marriage was in the future. But, I met my now-husband at 21, we then dated long-distance for 3 years and he moved in with me when he came back to DC because the ring was basically a formality by then. [b]I even had him do the ask my parents thing, but out of respect for my parents since I am an only child and very close to them.[/b] Again, I have no strong feelings on this topic. Do what works for you. I will say that the wedding felt a little anti-climactic after having lived together for about a year before the wedding.[/quote] If they had said no, what then? I'm always curious about people who have their boyfriends do this "out of respect" for their parents. Would filial respect trump your wish to marry, if they refused? If not, then isn't asking for their approval really just a sham, an empty gesture?[/quote]
