The reader responses were all over the board, of course. Some stated that they were independent women who have been succeeding on their own & would be downright insulted if their fiance asked her parents first. That to me is a bit ridiculous...insulted? I know it's old fashioned, but I like the tradition of the hubby-to-(hopefully)-be nervously approaching his girlfriends father (or mother, you get the idea), the anticipation of what is about to finally happen. I love it!
Mr. Quiche called my mom before he popped the question, and I thought it was very thoughtful & downright cute of him to do it! It made my mom happy too. When I called her after he proposed, she was practically bursting at the seams!
With Mama & Petey Quiche...a little wedding day teaser for you!
So hive, where do you stand? Is this a dated, irrelevant tradition? Did your fiance "ask" your parents before asking you?
