My daughter just got engaged!

Beautiful girl. Congratulations! I'm glad mine is only 2 yrs. old. I'm gonna cry like a baby when she leaves home. I'd be nervous too, I'm sure you only want the absolute best for your daughter, so it makes sense to me to be nervous. Good luck.

Congratulations! I can imagine as a father that it is a nerve wracking experience. I know I was nervous as heck when I asked my wife to marry me. Congrats again!

Wow congrats, always good when they ask for permission first, I made sure to do that.

Nervous because they want a traditional wedding where you foot the bill? :razz::razz:

Congrats, brother. And, no, I will never go through this. My daughters will never date or marry, they will remain home and nurse me and their mother until we are dead and gone and then remain celibate as they will be too busy pursuing PhDs and claiming Nobel Prizes.

This!

Congrats, Curtis. Since he's from Ohio, we already know he's a good guy.

Thanks again everyone. Adam, I tried your method, and sadly it did not work. And Yodis, I think you may be on to something there. They are both great kids, my daughter is in grad school and when she had to quit working full time he took a part time job and works overtime at his regular job. So he passed two of the biggest test; not afraid to work and will do whatever he needs to to take care of her. It is a blessing to have daughters, and she is definitely a daddy's girl, but still... Such mixed emotions, but I really am looking forward to grandchildren 😄

huge congrats Curtis.. awesome that she has found someone that is respectful, hard working, and appears to have a solid set of values on him.. those are hard character traits to find these days sadly...

I am already dredding "the dating age"... Ive got 2 coming up on that period very quickly.. and another one that will follow just a few years after...

that reminds me... Ive got to go sharpen my axe.... brb....

 

[YodisMatt]

Yeah all of this is why I am not sure I want us to have a little girl.

How did I miss this thread. Congrats man. My daughter is only 14 months old right now. I am not looking forward to all this.

Maybe ill have to take the young suitors rock climbing with me and give them a serious talk right before I send them up the wall...

Congrats Curtis!!! That's awesome!!!!

Ditto!!! I have two boys, really wanted a daughter but it's not in the cards. One of the things in life I'd love to do if I could is walk my daughter down the isle...something really special about that moment!

Congrats brother. Couldn't be happier for you. I was nervous as hell before I asked my fiancé so it's pretty normal for him to be freaked out.

As for you that's your little girl and your absolutely freaked that she's growing up. It's alright brother if you think he's a good guy I'm sure he is.

Congrats again and best wishes to you and both of them.
