Oh, it can be a trap alright. Too many failed marriages these days.

I wish everyone who got married could be happy forever and always. Unfortunately, the world doesn't work that way.

I am not married yet but I did get a sort-of proposal 2 years ago from my girlfriend. She more or less said one night this "As soon as you are done collage and then can make some cash, you are marrying me" and I gave my best "yeah okay" that I could.:innocent:

So really the proposal was just as simple as asking to pass the salt.

My boyfriend and I had already been living together for about 5 years.  We talked about marriage a little and then I think he said "How about it?" and I said "Okay". (Or it might have been me who asked *shrugs*)  A month later we were at the registry office dressed in jeans and saying our vows!  We didn't have rings to exchange so the ceremony was only about 5 minutes long.

Actually, a year after my husband and I were married we separated for a few months due to ongoing problems.  We worked through the problems and 15 years later we are still together and very happy.  Our relationship is so much stronger for working through the rough patches.



Edit - I also recommend saving money by eloping.  Spend money on a holiday instead of a silly wedding.

Oh I plan to have the complete opposite. The grander the better.

Though sometimes I dream about having it be real small-time. I can see the appeal of a quiet wedding.

[Kidd]

I'd prefer something simple and private. Much the same I would likely give if I was the one who proposed.

[FeralEwok]

I doubt I'd do any real planning short of getting a ring. Nothing grandoise, just me simply telling that person I love her and that if there had to be someone I was stuck with for the rest of my life it would be her. Maybe the words would be prettier than that, but something short, something true, and something sweet.

I don't think I would marry someone who wanted something different than that.

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

Simple proposal. Also, my future husband must be - must be - dressed as Pepsiman and, instead of an engagement ring, he must proffer a case of Pepsi.

Alternatively, I'll just run into a random stranger, notice he's wearing the same amulet I am and have an insta-wedding in Riften. Because that makes so much sense.

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

Story time and details folks.

I had planned it perfect, skiing trip on New Years Eve, where I'd pop the question at the top of the mountain because I couldn't get much higher.

Mom ruined it by strongly hinting that I'd be asking a question.

I made a second plan, which my mother also ruined.  I can't remember what I planned here.

I ended up proposing spontaneously, during an intimate moment, becasue I knew my Mom couldn't ruin that.  PITA she is, she at least respected that privacy.

[LPPrince]

Thats why I would never hint to anyone that I'd be doing it.

My mom WOULD be the kind to ruin a special moment like that, so I'd never tell her.

My dad would be much more understanding and he'd stay hushed, but I'd much rather tell him that I'm going to marry the future Princess of our royal line AFTER the proposal.

Trust me, she'll never forget that.

Yeah, almost the same thing here. About three weeks before my husband proposed my dad came up to me before a concert and said "You're going to get married!" and then proceeded to cry all over me. Try going onstage after that - I totally expected my husband to propose to me in front of hundreds of people.

But he didn't. He'd just done the old-fashioned thing by asking my pops for his permission. Thanks for the heart attack, dad. Sweatiest day of my life.

The second scenario was much better.  My favorite thing about my life is the people I love. I surround myself with as many of them as possible whenever possible. My husband proposed privately but at a public event where I could squee to everyone I love immediately afterward. The thing about proposals is there's not really such a thing as a good one or a bad one as long as both people are pumped about it. It's a very individual thing, so what's perfect for one couple might seem totally distasteful to another.

[LPPrince]

This thread makes me happy.

[GenericEnemy]

To answer your question for unmarried women, I prefer crazy proposals.

There was a guy here who dished out the money to hire an entire flash mob just to propose. Things like that. :3

[LPPrince]

Yeah, something big like that. Thats what I want to do.

Hope I can pay them in gum though, since I doubt I'll have the money to afford it.

[Lotion Soronarr]

Marriage is compromise and endurance. It takes two, both determined to make it work, for it to work.

I hate when people do things like that. Like keeping a secret is so goddamned hard.

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.

This is the same with me, to a tee. Me and my better half talked about it once and both said no to the idea or marriage and kids. If we are planning on staying together why get a paper to "solidify it". While we had friends get married, and it was nice for them etc, it is nothing I want.
