Did your fiancé ask for your dads permission to marry you?

Question

Just curious as mine did not and being that I’m 25 with two kids from my fiancé and we have been together for 6.5 years. We just got engaged about 6 months ago and I have a beautiful ring to show for it. So I don’t think my fiancé really needed to ask my father for my permission tbh. I can make my own decisions and my parents don’t own me so I don’t see any reasoning to this. 
However my dad taking it to heart and refuses to call my fiancé my fiancé because he didn’t ask for my dad permission so my dad says that’s not a fiancé he’s a boyfriend since he never told him he was marrying me and that he is not family. It’s honestly VERY rude and controlling behavior in my opinion. 
Did anyone else fiancé not ask for permission? Is it THAT BAD that my so didn’t ask?
Update: out of the ones that say “it’s about respect” etc I just don’t see the point. My dad has been nothing but unsupportive of my relationship since I got with my fiancé. He wanted me to get married when I was 6 months into the relationship. Always insulted me and my fiancé saying things like “when are you going to get married?” “If he really wanted to marry you he would have done so years ago” etc. Out of respect I personally don’t feel my dad deserved that and as a father I would assume he would be supportive regardless but he wasn’t and that is very unfortunate. However what gets me the most is my dad constantly saying “he’s YOUR family. Not mine” and that truly bothers me. My dad been bugging for years about an engagement and so I do get engaged and yet it’s still not enough for him. I’m still getting talked down on about my engagement and find it very rude of him. Yeah it’s just a little conversation saying “hey I plan on marrying your daughter” but honestly the way my dad is and how controlling he is the conversation would have steered into him insulting my fiancé and I wasn’t going to put my fiancé through that. Tbh I would have loved my fiancé to talk to my dad if things were different but they aren’t and if my dad can’t respect my fiancé then I won’t respect himz

Answer

Your dad is making this about him when it isn't. My husband didn't ask for my father's permission, because he knew already my father had no say in this. I did. I am my own person. I'm no ones property

Answer

Asking permission and asking for his blessing are two different things. My husband asked for my dad's blessing. It was for the sake of tradition since my husband would have married me no matter what.

Answer

In my opinion your attitude is kind is sucky. I’m sorry but just because you feel one way about it and it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider how important that is for a parent. You should of spoken to ur fiancé and just explain why its important to your dad. It’s not like ur dad is asking for freaking a lot. Just to ask him one question what’s the big deal. It’s not about who owns who. It’s not about how old you are or how many kids you have. It’s about an honor for a father and mother who raised to have some respect from ur fiancé. You can have ten kids and have all the money in the world but what it meant for your dad to be asked is bigger then that.

Answer

No.
I don't need permission to get married. I am a grown adult, not a kid.
He didn't ask for his blessing either.  My dad always made his feelings for anyone clear and he always told me that if I loved a man, then that was good enough for him and he loved him too.
He and my now husband got on very well in the times we spent together.  I know we had my dad's blessing. No asking needed. My family isn't very traditional in that way anyway. He never asked my maternal grandparents blessing before marrying my mom either, soo..
Unfortunately my father passed away 2 years before we got married.

Answer

My husband did and it was so lovely. My dad was just absolutely over the moon. He asked for a blessing rather than permission. 
Each to their own though.

Answer

Mine did. It’s not a requirement, but something nice to do. My dad is kind of old school so we knew he would appreciate it.z

Answer

My husband did... he took my dad for a beer and said he wanted to ask me to marry him.
My dad would never have said no but I was touched that he asked. My sisters husband did too, I think its sweet x

Answer

It’s more of a gesture of respect, but definitely not necessary. My husband asked my dad and in Greece where he grew up they don’t even do that, so he thought it was just sweet but definitely not necessary.

Answer

Nope my husband didn’t. When I asked him why his response was you’re your own person. You dad isn’t your keeper and he doesn’t control your decision. Whether he says yes or no isn’t going to stop me from asking and you making your own choice. My dad was butt hurt over it for like 10 minutes but he’s a grown ass man and knows it’s my choice regardless

Answer

My husband asked my mom parents blessing before he proposed. We were set on marrying each other no matter what.
