After dating my girlfriend for two years, I decided to ask her dad for his blessing before proposing. During dinner, I nervously pulled him aside but instead of saying, “I’d like your blessing to marry your daughter,” I blurted out, “I’d like to marry you.”
Realizing my mistake, I panicked and tried to fix it, but made things worse. My girlfriend overheard and laughed, while her dad found it so funny he started crying. He eventually gave his blessing, but now her family calls me “Dad’s other husband.
