I am sure it was something along those lines. I never asked him. But I can tell you, when I lived at home with my folks during college brakes during the 80s, if a guy came calling for either my sister or me and he was not dressed according to what my father thought appropriate, or had the right hair cut, he wasn’t let past the front door.

Even when I thought I had met the right guy when I got engaged, I did not accept until he got dad’s seal of approval.

Dad is a WW II vet. He is the most wonderful man I’ve ever known. My heart will shatter when he’s gone,

I asked permission of my FIL before I asked my future wife.
