Dropping hints into conversations, slow introductions, using her name little and often works. "So there's this person I want you to meet..."
Then maybe play the friends card. "We're really good friends, I love talking to her, she's a great laugh, we get on well..." etc.
Annnd then play your next card. "Dad, we're hitting it off really well, she said she wants to meet me and I definitely want to meet her, do you think it's possible?"
That's how my dad found out, with my mum's help.
