 Twas curious, to those of you who are married, how did the proposals go?

Were they the regular get down on one knee thing, or were they some massive grand spectacle?

For you girls who aren't married yet, would you prefer a simple proposal or something crazy?

For you guys who aren't married yet, what kind of proposal are you most likely to give a girl?

Story time and details folks.

An indecent one.

[Volus Warlord]

Unmarried, no current prospects worth investigating.

All I'll say is a girl that gets me to propose will be both very persistent and very clever..

[RedArmyShogun]

After having burned her village and put the small folks to the torch she had no choice.

Or I just upped and asked with a ring, in a park.

Either are likely from me, either may be true.

Something simple, anything made public would be horrendous, his arse would be severely dropped!

I always wondered why the male is the one that has to do the proposing.

My (now husband) walked in the front door of my house, like normal, and got down on one knee. Sadly, I didn't even realize he was doing it, as I wasn't looking in that direction (and I'm very easily distracted). I think he had to whistle at me or something, to get me to look over.

Yeah, he's not particularly romantic. And neither am I, apparently.

That had to be incredibly awkward, hahaha.

You'd hate me then, hahaha. Once the time is right I'm totally gonna be doing something grandiose.

Well I only have one idea at the moment, and it does not in fact involve ponies.

Perhaps I'll get an idea later on that will. I'll let you know.

I've always thought proposing in a big public place was distasteful. What if the girl wasn't ready yet and said no? Then it would be humiliating for both parties involved. It's horrible to put someone on the spot like that.

Careful diplomacy.

So much this. It's the only reason I could think of for getting married.

Only IF they aren't ready. Thats why you do everything to make sure they are beforehand.

It's true. My husband proposed to me after college graduation in front of all our family and friends. It was perfect, and totally unexpected since it was already such a big day.

I was so surprised that I said no at first. As in 'NO, really? You're really proposing?!" I was shocked and he was nervous and tongue-tied. He didn't want to start the next part of his life without me. It was perfect for us.

Three years later and we're still as happy as a couple of clams.
Word of advice, though: make sure she's the one, because life will be pretty miserable if she isn't. And maybe reflect on if there are any issues you need to sort out before you say "I do." Marriage is as much about being the right person as it is about finding the right person. /endlecture

For you guys who aren't married yet, what kind of proposal are you most likely to give a girl?

Something personal. I wouldn't ever make a public spectacle out of it. I've been with my girlfriend for two years, and if I end up asking her I'm going to take her out to the creek where we use to hang out quite a bit when we just started dating and ask her there, sorta bring it full circle and it will be a private and personal memory between us, rather than a bunch of strangers and possibly some family staring at us at an event.

[happy_daiz]

And for god's sake, when you do tie the knot, do yourself a favor, and elope somewhere nice!

Now THATS romantic.

I was engaged briefly in the 90s. Don't really remember the proposal, it's not like I actually married the dude.

As for future proposals, hopefully no would-be suitor would be clueless enough to propose. SO not ever getting married, it's just not my thing at all.

[LPPrince]

Yiiiikes.

Marriage, it's a trap!
