OT - He said yes

Took my future father in law out for a beer last night to give him the low down, and make sure my plans met with his approval. No worries, he was really happy for us!

One down, one to go.

That is really cool. I did the same thing with my FIL, even though my wife and I had both been previously married. The gesture was really appreciated and gets brought up a lot when the families are together. Way to go, good luck with the next one.

Was there a dowry involved?

That’s just sick, man. First you date his daughter, then you propose to him. When did your taste switch to older men?
