Girls...Would you ever ask a man to marry you? And Guys, what would you think?

Question

And why, why not?

Answer 1

it depends. . 1. if i dont like the girl that much, i would feel bad thinking that i lead her on.

2. If i did in fact liked her that way .. and just wasnt ready for commitment i would re-evaluate our relationship and would be very impressed. since its not a common tradition.

Answer 2

I Used To Joke Around With My Fiance Before We Were Engaged.

I'd Say Something Like "I Love You So Much, I'm Gonna Marry You One Day... So Will You Marry Me?"

We'd Play Around & He'd Say Yes.

Then A Few Weeks Later He Proposed Properly To Me.

=)

Answer 3

I wouldnt ask. I think its sweet having the guy ask, and I wouldnt want to give up that one moment in life where he asks me to marry him... and I say yes.

I guess Im traditional that way.

Answer 4

I didn't ask him, but I did kinda push him into it because I told him I wanted to look at rings. When we did I picked out the one I like and the next day he bought it.  

Answer 5

I would not do that. Men are aware that they are the ones expected to do the proposing, and if he hasn't, I figure it's because he either isn't ready right now or doesn't want to.

I did make it clear to my husband from the very beginning that I was in it for marriage, not just dating, so he knew where I stood, but I wouldn't propose to a man.

He and I have talked about this subject a few times, and he tends to agree with me.

Answer 6

I asked my fiance to marry me last Christmas.  He said yes and we will be married in October.  After being together for almost 5 yrs, we had discussed it, and he had basically told me in front of everyone that when I was ready I could ask him.  I'm not sure if he was joking or not, but the following Christmas I decided that I was ready and surprised him with an engagement ring.

Answer 7

Personally, I wouldn't. I would probably IMPLY if my guy and I should marry, but I wouldn't really propose.

In my point of view, it's the GUY'S job to ask girl to marry him, and it's the GIRL'S job to decide if she would marry him. Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but... meh.

Answer 8

personally, i wouldn't. in general, men are more practical and women are more emotional. if women were to propose marriage, it would be out of love and only love (not that there's nothing wrong with that), & men would do it when the couple is financially, mentally, and emotionally ready (which takes longer). i see that with my relationship. i was (emotionally) ready to marry months ago, but he is looking at every aspect, which i am trusting.

however, i don't see anything wrong with the woman proposing.

Answer 9

As a guy who is engaged and will be getting married next year. I don't really like the idea of getting asked. I don't know why but I think this is one tradtition that is worth sticking to having the guy do the asking. Good Luck.  

Answer 10

No, I would never ask.  A lady waits for the gentleman to ask her.

Answer 11

I almost did, but I figured I'd best make sure he had a chance to do so first. It was good that I waited, because he had an elaborate plan. As for why, we'd been going out long enough, and timing of school and me being out of town was such that it was really the appropriate time to get engaged. I would not have been comfortable hinting at him, or asking him to ask me.
