Popping the question...

It's sad that something so nice - upon entering the family, making the father of the woman you love feel good, and important and involved in her life choices - can just be reduced to 'outdated crap'. In most cases, the guy you're asking brought this girl up and made her into the person she is, so all it is is respect. But sadly to an awful lot of people, respect is just 'outdated crap' and that's why we are in such a sorry state as a society!

Good on all you lads who would ask. It's not necessary, but it's a nice thing to do.

Here Here!!!

It's nice that the tradition of asking the father is still upheld

Also... definitely get a ring - even just a cheapie... one of my friend's got his missus a charm for her bracelet instead (as a placeholder till they got the actual ring) which I thought was cute.

Good luck

I bought a diamond, I had a pretty good idea what she wanted, so bought it, then presented it to her. She then gets to choose a ring to be built around it

Seemed to go down pretty well

I didn't ask her Dad, as I am fairly sure he would have said "Why are you asking me?!"
