Marraige Proposals
 

Any gd'ers married, or engaged to be married might be able to help me out here.

Can you share how you proposed to your wife to be?

I can't decide whether to go over the top romantic or just say it.

I have set the date in my head to do it in the next 6-9 months.

Joke proposals will get rep++

"Dear The-Future-Mrs-Shadowman,
Some friends on the internet insulted you, and me and my knackerwackers stood up for you. Therefore, you must marry me, or ur fukkin ded.
Your's lovingly,
TheShadowMan"

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Is this just so Dace can't make girlfriend jokes any more? He can just change the word to wife and i'm pretty sure they'll still be just as funny :)

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to SYMM again.

She actually found that thread hilarious and laffed at me for a good week

Do it while riding one of the iron lions in Trafalgar (sp?) Square :)

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

On holiday in New York, we'd seen the St Patrick's day parade on 5th Avenue, then were going to the Empire State and then Brooklyn Bridge.
I'd already decided to ask her that day, but didn't want to do it on Empire, as it's just too obvious. So, we were waiting for a bus to get to the Bridge, I nipped into a shop on the pretext of buying fags, but got a bottle of champagne and two glasses, which I hid upon my person.

We get to the Bridge, walk half way across and I suggest we stop for a breather. We sit down on a bench, I get down on one knee and propose, she says yes, then we drink champagne and have our picture taken by the first guy that came along, who was jogging while smoking a large Havana cigar.

All in all, very satisfying, and the hotel laid on chocolate covered strawberries and champagne the next day when we happened to tell one of the receptionists.

I wouldn't change any of it.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Why don't you ask her just as you're about to come?

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Do it by letter:

Dear Regular Sexual Partner,

Over the past months I have become complacent about your presence. I have taken the time to note that I am not getting any younger and no longer feel I am in a position to attract new women. There are certain tasks which will require a woman to perform, and may I say that assessing you ability so far, it is my opinion that with training you may yet reach a standard of low competent.

I have therefore taken the decision to offer you a permanent position in place of your weekly contract.

You should be aware that this honor will be acompanied by a 20% reduction in visible signs of affection you recieve, reducing annually. You will of course retain your yearly 'bonus'.

I stronly urge you take advantage of this offer. And may i take this time to remind you that beggers can't be choosers

Yours

TSM

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Nice work Dead_Meat.

I arranged a hot air balloon ride which she knew about, however, i'd flown her and my immediate family to the launch area. And proposed infront of them all, quite possibly the most nerve racking moment in my entire life, thankfully she said yes, we toasted with the family and then took off. During the flight i handed her an envelope containing some tickets to www.kuredu.com island. Nice way to cap it off.

Still havent got round to the actual marriage.

Re: Marraige Proposals

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

I think I proposed in the bath.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Obviously it was a special occassion.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

we were in a club, and i was making facetious comment and said she should marry me, jokingly, but she said yes, so, the next day, when we were sober, we sat down and actually discussed what it would mean, as i dont believe in long engagements, and so, nearly a year later, we are getting married next month :):):)

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

aww rr she got you on a joke :P

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Neither did Britney Spears.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

I proposed to a girl in a club but that's a very long story (which i believe some GD reg's have heard in person).

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Don't worry Yahwe, the internet will marry you if you ask her nicely enough.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Well, before you propose you need a ring. You need her size, and you need to know her taste. take her to a mall or someplace that just "happens" to have a jewlery store in you guys path. Let her try on different rings, NOT, i repeat NOT wedding rings, just silly rings to get her size if you don't know it, on your way out glance at the wedding rings and she will point a few out that she likes. get the ring later (may be exensive, my wifes was $3000 ****ing dollars, the shit is in my name though :D ). Next step, rent nice hotel room, check in and put roses and ballons or whatever you think she fancies in the room. Take her to dinner, then to the room (ofc she needs to know in advance) then propose IN THE ROOM. No where else but the room, this saves you embarrassment and takes pressure off her. the + to this method is that the sex after she says yes will be the best you have probably ever had. The downside is if she is on her period. :( So try to schedule before or after that fatal week.

The internet is a hoe. You can't turn a hoe into a house wife.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

you're american.

you didn't understand my post.

is it racist to see a connection?

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

If this is directed at me,
yes, i am american,
No, I didn't read your post.
I responded to Weeks' post.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

weeks' post about what?

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

no offense chika.. but that's a fairly dull way of doing it.
the idea is that you KNOW ahead of time that she'll say yes, that way you can ask anywhere. i mean fs us girls are attentionwhores and what better way to get attention (and envy of other girls around) if you do it fairly publically.
well. i don't know about doing it in a big crowd in the middle of the street.. but in a nice restaurant or something. it all depends on how you do it though i suppose, DM's sounds very nice. the thing is a hotel room is pretty forgettable.. and the whole point is you want it to be unforgettable.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

*makes notes*

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

No offence, but personally, someone like you wouldn't get a proposal from me. People do the silly things they do for attention. If a female is so bent on public, so someone can admire her, and so she can talk it over with her friends, then I think that female is shallow, and has nothing of her own. Also, losers tend to want to show off, or be "public".
Naturally, my method doesn't work on losers.
Love is between 2 people. You've seen 1 to many love movies. It just doesn't work that way. And generally, anyone you are thinking to marry, if you don't think they would say yes, then you shouldn't ask. Traditionally you have to have that rock in hand before you ask. So, also naturally, I am going to be damn sure that the answer will be yes.

bah, and i get flamed for calling you guys geeks. Its like someone calling you ugly, and you deny it with your life, then later on, you admit that your ugly.
The irony.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Was it at Brownies ?

~Vaio~

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

trust me, i don't mind, she is beautiful, witty and intelligent, when i first met her i thought that she was way out of my league :)
plus i was ready to settle down, if i wasn't i would never have agreed to get married, i may sound a bit outdated, but to me marriage is still a once in a lifetime thing :) i'm happy and currently i wouldn't have things any other way, hell the one thing i would change is have a better job so that i could buy her more pretty things :)

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

:) Its great that you have that mind set m8. So many idiots think that marriage is superficial.
pretty things don't buy happiness though. TIME
and tender love and care.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

DM is still the 'winner'

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

There is no one way. if there was, girls would be boring. And hey, they aren't.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

She's just using you to get closer to Andrew.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

for some reason that had never occured to me... i wonder why :p

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Because Cecily is a master of deception?

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Cecily is a Decepticon.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Villany! Let the doors be locked!

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

i did wonder why she hated my autobot T shirt, i thought that it was just cos she doesn't like me being overtly geeky?!? :(

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

I'd allow her out of her pit first, and then allow her to eat the scraps off my table (before giving them to the dog!).

Then I'd ask her to marry me. It'd be beautiful.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

Marriage is only an option when the other person is 16 or over.

Re: Marraige Proposals
 

I didn't have a ring.
I didn't have flowers
I didn't have balloons
I didn't have a plan.
I didn't know if she was going to say 'yes'. *
I did know I wanted to ask her.








* When I did ask, on one knee, she kind of laughed a lot and eventually said
"I don't know what to say"
to which I romantically replied
"Yes would be a good, my knees are bloody killing me"
