Sorry about the numbering. I had to delete some of this to make it fit, and forgot to re-number the questions. In the 1st set of questions 5]&6] should be 3] & 4]
In the 2nd set the last answer should be 5]
I posted this question, because some one else asked if the man has to ask the father of the potential bride's permission. A lot of people said it was the correct thing to do, and seemed to assume the father would say "Yes."
Pearl - Good point. But it could be because in her culture obedience to one's parents is absolute. Also why ask permission if you are not prepared to abide by the answer? Besides, the man might withdraw the proposal.

If her father said no and it actually influenced your plans, then you are either too young or she is too attached to her parents to get married.

in case you the two are in love and in basic terms wait a 300 and sixty 5 days. your dad is in basic terms worried that marriage will distract your profession. My husband is an lawyer and he married a effective lady who became a fellow regulation scholar at a youthful age and that they divorced years earlier we met. She is a huge woman and became a decide! Wait a 300 and sixty 5 days or 2 to devise a grand wedding ceremony! as a mom it truly is larger to attend and have the perfect and permit dad get to a pair guy stuff with dad and you get to appreciate your in regulations extra. in basic terms sneak off on little holiday trips like Prince William and Kate did and revel in and have a planned rite later!

1) Single, which is how I like it
2) N/A
5) N/A
6) I wouldn't ask permission because if I was to marry someone they'd be middle aged like I am and would be responsible for the decision themselves. (4 - the second one, your numbering scheme is a bit messed up)

1- separated
2- before we got engaged we lived together, we never got engaged actually
3- we didn't need to ask anyone
4- we seriously always do what we want, we would have never neither asked or listen to anybody's opinion!
