You should've met each other's parents already but since you haven't do so ASAP.
A serious relationship for me means that our families have mingled. If a man is asking for a woman's hand in marriage, I would think that he would've wanted to know what he's marrying into long before he decided when he's going to ask for her hand.
For me, meeting each other's parents should only be done if it is a serious and longterm relationship. As adults who plan on getting married one day, this also means there's marriage potential. Meeting the family is a prize to me that requires more than just "dating." Some people let everyone meet the family, which can make the family think you're a perpetual dater (or a manwhore) if you've had 20 "girlfriends." They can be wondering "which one will he bring home this time!"
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
