You Want Me To What?!
Jun 02 '00
My fiancé and I had known each other for only a few short months at the time, and we both were going through some really hard times, but that’s when we realized we needed each other more than anything!
We asked each other how much we loved the other, and when our answers matched, we decided that we were going to get married (one day, even though we didn’t have a ring). Of course, he tried to be more romantic about it at a later date, but things didn’t quite work out as he had hoped.
We have known each other for a year and a half now, and still have those plans, but there still isn’t a ring on my finger! (Not that it is extremely important, but I want everyone to know that we are serious about this, and how much we love each other.)
Now, I’d like to share my desires with the men out there, and what “some” females (I won’t pretend to know what all of us like) wish for their proposal. Although, there are degrees to which certain things could happen. Money, for one, is a factor.
My dreams of proposal (not that they will come true, but maybe this will give some guys ideas)
*** This would be a bit expensive, and would only be desired if the funds allowed.***
Of course, I want to be picked up in a limo (who doesn’t?), and be led around town to all the places we experienced our “firsts”. And as ridiculous as that sounds, it means a lot to most women; just knowing that you guys remember and cherish those moments too. Afterwards, I want to be taken out to the nicest restaurant in town, in a beautiful dining gown (which was bought by “him” before the date), and I want him to have the pianist (or band) play “our” song as he kneels where everyone can see and ask me to be his wife, his life-long partner (and recite his own vows).
Obviously, you don’t have to be rich to be romantic, and the following is a scenario which would be just as romantic, but at a lower cost.
A few years ago, I attended all the hockey games for the South Carolina Stingrays, and witnessed many marriage proposals. All it takes is a few dollars for the tickets and a walk over to the announcer’s stand. As ridiculous as this may sound, it is the next best thing to the scenario stated above (for me). Simple, yet so meaningful. Meaningful? Yes, if he didn’t want everyone to know how much he loved me he wouldn’t want to announce it to a stadium full of 10,000 people!
Once again, these are my dreams, and do not have to be yours. Never lose sight of the fact that romantic doesn't have to mean spilling thousands of dollars into this one event. Each proposal should be unique to the couple, their memories, their adventures, sacrifices, etc.
Guys, plan this event as best as possible, and remember that this is going to be one of those many moments she’s going to adore you for.
Ladies, don’t get mad if he doesn’t do it just the way you want him to. Every guy has his own “way”, and if you know him and love him, you’ll understand.
