Why is it that rubecube has to make all the concessions and kiss up to his girlfriends father? If they are going to get along in the long run, rubecube and the ol' man will both have to take one step towards eachother to find acceptance.

Neither of us know much about their greater relationship or how many concessions each has had to make, so who knows? Maybe the dad is impossible to please, maybe he's made many attempts of his own. I'm only judging by what's in the thread and it doesn't seem like he's asking for too much, just 3 nights on a coach.

What else should I do to show this guy that I'm committed to his daughter?

I'm only commenting on the situation you've detailed about 3 nights on a coach. If you've done all of these things, great. I don't know you personally, so you could be every dad's dream son in law for all I know. I don't see why 3 nights on a coach would be your tipping point than?
