What Women Really Expect When You Propose Marriage

Fri, November 23rd 2007, 02:06 EST

 

Proposing marriage is one of the most significant events in your life. More than likely you know what her answer will be especially if you have repeatedly expressed your love for each another. Make your marriage proposal an event that neither one of you will ever forget by creating memories certain to last a lifetime. Let’s explore some options which are truly unforgettable.

Some Enchanted Evening – What woman doesn’t like to be wined and dined, especially when the man she loves is by her side?  Take a Saturday afternoon trip to the city, visit a museum or park and then romance her over Ahi Tuna Steak, seared medium rare and topped with crabmeat and served with a dazzling pesto dish. Even if she rebuffs your proposal, you’ll still have an unforgettable steak to rave over! Seriously, wait until dessert and use the interlude before it arrives to bear your heart and bring out the engagement ring.

Days Of Our Lives – Truly, some of the best times to propose are smack dab in the middle of the day. You pick her up for brunch, and then you head out to her favorite mall and spend hours laughing, joking, talking, and kissing. Sitting by the water fountain you figure that this is a perfect time to ask for her hand in marriage. Just be careful that you don’t let your enthusiasm push one or both of you into the water!

Animal House – If you’re both still in college and planning to marry shortly after graduating, why not call on your fraternity brothers and her sorority sisters to help make the event memorable? Short of throwing a toga party, you can enlist your Greek brothers and sisters to pull together limited resources to make it an event no one will ever forget. Let them pay for the beer and food; you’ll be doing all that you can to scrape together enough money to buy her a diamond ring.

Fiddler on the Roof – If you both love to laugh, why not go all out and do something that is sure to get you noticed, maybe even arrested? Serenade her from the balcony of her apartment or climb up to the roof next door and fiddle away the evening. For the musically challenged, bringing a horse drawn carriage by to whisk you both away is another suggestion as is asking the announcer at an upcoming college basketball game to tell the world that you are proposing. You get the idea: do something she would never expect, but certainly not refuse!

Ultimately, the setting for the proposal will not matter as much as you revealing your heart to her and telling her that you want to spend the rest of your lives together. Turn off the cell phone, get down on one knee, and make sure that you flossed your teeth; you can create memories that will last a lifetime with a healthy dose of thoughtfulness and tenderness on your part.
