    So firstly ok start by saying I'm going to ask my girlfriend to marry me.we met as child hood sweet hearts and then had been seen each other for the last 8 years on and off Notting serious as the time was never right so in that time she had a beautiful little girl in a relationship that never went anywhere or she never wanted it to with a different partner. I myself also had a little boy with a different partner in this time also. So as I said we have being seen each other on and off for 8 years. Ah year ago we decided to get together and see how it went.
    My god it has being the most amazing year of my life and I mean that we both fell for each other instantly and what has came from that is out of this world.intact there is a spark between us like Notting I've ever seen or felt before.
    So her parents know our history and they like us and think were amazing together and we live together also.
    So basically I'm going to ask her parents can I marry her.but don't no how to aporoch it with them.
    I no the answer already from the girlfriend will be yeah as we have discussed it at length.
    So could anyone give me some advice on how and what would be the best way to aporoch the situation.
    Thanks in advance guys and ladies

    Be honest, tell them what you wrote above about how much you care about her and you'll be fine!

    Don't ask for their permission, just ask for their blessing. That's what my oh did and I'm glad he did. He was nervous but just after dinner with my family one day I had pottered off with my daughter and he just said to them that he knew it went without saying how much he loved me and that he wanted to make our little family official and ask me to marry him and that he would like their blessing. Very simple. My Dad laughed, my Mam cried, we get married next year :)

    It's totally natural to be nervous and I'm sure they'll be so happy when you ask anyway they won't notice. My fiancée said he was absolutely terrified when he went to see my parents and to make it worse my little sister (who had organised the visit) was sitting there in stitches laughing at the whole thing.
