  Don’t buy a ring for engagement unless you know for sure that they a) want an engagement ring, and b) are 100% gonna say yes.

  Marriage shouldn’t be a surprise.

    Me and my my girlfriend are of the mind where (once our relationship is that far) there’s gonna be a long talk about marriage, like if we’re ready, what changes are being made once that happens, a lot of discussion. We also agree once that discussion has been settled there can still be the romantic gesture of popping the question

    I just never understood how people are able to go

    “I’m putting you on the spot would you make a life changing decision that will alter both our lives or will you break my heart, go ahead infront of all these people”

    Marriage isn’t a surprise but the engagement can be.

      Neither the question nor the answer should ever be a surprise.

      The time, and location of proposal are the surprise.

      When I asked my now wife, I knew for sure she was going to say yes, and I knew she would want a simple ring with her birth stone instead of a diamond.

      She had no idea I was going to ask her in the manner I did while we were out camping. that was the surprise for her. Not the question itself.

      Nope. If the question was a surprise then your communication skills as a couple aren’t there yet.

      The moment it becomes official is the surprise, ths actual context of it cannot ever be one.

      Engagement is the initiation of marriage, they are the same. So your sentence doesn’t make sense

  No mustard/sauerkraut or chili/cheese, I can see why.

    Was gonna say, plain hotdog even for a proposal?

    Does this guy even have the concept of what a bad hotdog might be?

  You proposed with a broken weiner without enough girth to fill the hole?
