Question

i might do this in a few months , but im stupid, i have idea what to say or were/how ect..c'mon fellow yahooers help me out

Answer 1

Ohh wow congrats!

Well i'm a typical girly gir (don't know what your girlfriend is like) But i think the most romantic way is to..

either take a romantic walk one evening near a lake or something - where there is a nice view and nightlife etc.. And just kneel on one knee and say something like -

"name, you make my life perfect .. blah blah..every minute with you is priceless...I love you - Will you Marry me!"

Haha sounds soppy but yeah...

OR take her out for a meal - and again kneel to her and ask her to marry you.. That way she'll feel adored.

PRICE IS NOTHING!

Hope it helped...Again congrats and good luck x

Answer 2

Proposing is special. If my boyfriend were going to propose right now I'd want it to be perfect.

When I say perfect, I mean perfect to me.

We live near a beautiful beach...It would be amazing if he took me there...or took me to this amazing restaurant where we had our first date...even to the place we met. Pick her favorite time of day...if she's a morning person...you could make breakfast and when she's still in pjs...pop the question on one knee....if she's an afternoon gal...a special place for lunch then a walk. Or Evening/night...gal...take her somewhere at sunset or to a place that will take her breath away. Whatever you do will be special as long as it's not..."Hey, wanna get hitched!"

Make it special to her...a place she likes/will like. Somewhere that you can revisit.

As far as the ring is concerned...I'd love a ring from  a cracker box if he proposed with it...

It's him that I love, not that ring.

I'm not saying be cheap or get in over your head with something huge...but go classy.

You can talk to jewelers and tell them about your gal and they'll help you pick one out. Don't buy a fake or a ring at Wal-Mart...buy her a ring from a jeweler that has a warranty and cleaning. Or...you could find a band that you can personalize with a special message. Past present and future rings are gorgeous and thoughtful.

Just keep in mind this is your forever girl...tell her exactly what she means to you...if you can't say it....write it and following it...propose.

I've attached a link that give your ring purchasing guidelines that help fit your needs...

Good luck, You've got this...just remember it's true to you and everyone could give you perfect ideas...but when it all comes down to it...it's a matter of the heart. Best of luck...

Answer 3

Go to a baseball,soccer,hockey, or football game and have your friends go.

Before your friends throw down the banner you will give her a cracker jack box and the ring will be in the little prize thing. She will be so surprised at that time you get on your knees, propose, and the banner drops everyones happy!

At that time your friends will throw down the banner that they made previous days before and if it's a baseball game at the 7th inning stretch they will hang the banner down on the upper deck.

Answer 4

Both my guy and I knew we would be getting married, but he INSISTED on a 'traditional romantic proposal.'  We were both so broke, we got the 'engagement ring' for $10 (it was silver with a carnelian, and I don't even LIKE diamonds) but he put it away and didn't give it to me to wear right away, waiting for the 'perfect moment' to propose.  I figured we'd go to a park or the art museum (he's an artist, I'm a writer who is also a psychologist) ... but one day after I'd cleaned BOTH of our apartments, did the laundry and was doing the last tub of dishes ... I was wet, dirty, tired, and smelly and up to my elbows in dishwater, there he was.  He gently took my hand, dried it, kissed me and said "Will you marry me?"  OH MY ... any guy can pay for a 'fancy dinner' where you both get all dressed up ... but it takes a TRUE ARTIST to see that his proposal would mean the MOST to me when I was at my WORST ... because he said those words with TRUE LOVE in them (he had already said he wouldn't say 'I love you' until we were married ... another very 'romantic moment') and I knew if he loved me then, he'd love me through everything.  So ... think of your girlfriend ... think of something she loves to do ... helping others ... or something that she hates to do but does because it needs to be done.  Chose THAT moment to ask her to marry you.  If you want, you may take her out for a picnic, but you don't have to spend a 'bundle' on an engagement ring ... and the engagement ring can be replaced with a bigger stone or better ring later when you can afford it ... just buy a nice ring that you know she'll like, and ask her at the PERFECT moment ... not the 'most fancy' or the 'most romantic' but at the time when she is the person YOU LOVE MOST ... and if you do that, you'll be started on a marriage like mine ... we're best friends (which we were BEFORE we 'fell in love'), we're lovers, partners, and playmates and if anything we are HAPPIER now after 11+ years of marriage ... we KNOW we are together 'forever and beyond' and part of that was his 'ultra-romantic but very off-beat' proposal.

Answer 5

bring her to a candle lit restaurant and have perfect manners the entire night then get down on one knee and you know

Answer 6

try romantic candle lit dinner...

it may be cheese but i think woman like that..

they wanna see you have a romantic side..

and same with what to say.

speak form your heart... don't try to script it.

real tell her what you think and express it the best you know how.

she isn't gonna marry you because of your linguistic skills, right?

Best of Luck!!!

Answer 7

2 months salary and don't tell her how much u spent plan ahead maybe throw  party with all her friends and family and put on the invite be there bu ionsert time here because i have an announcement then propose or do it privetly at a restraunt r wait for a holiday and give it to her as her present or if there is mutiple presents gie it to her as the last. Good luck hope she says yes

Answer 8

What does she like? Do it when she least expects it! At least 3 months salary!

Answer 9

It's going to a moment she will never forget, so keeping that in mind you could go for something that is meaningful to you both:

A place that is special for the both of you.

To a nice restaurant for dinner.

Up a mountain,(providing its summer)

To someplace you haven't been before, but you think it would be perfect for a proposal.

To your place for dinner, make it really romantic and you do the cooking.

What to say: Tell her what you feel about her and what you love the most about her, including her looks, then go on to tell her how you want to spend the rest of your life with her,

and then just say "will you marry me"

About what to spend on the ring, there are lots of ways to go about this, you don't have to present her with it on the night, you could let her pick it out, don't go into debt, just spend what you can afford, but don't buy anything crappy! Hope all works out for you.

Answer 10

typically you are supposed to show her how serious you are by spending two month's gross salary on the ring. If you make 500 a month before taxes, then you spend a thousand. I got an awesome ring at a pawn shop for 650 then spent 300 having it fixed and refurbished at a jeweler. I now have a 2000 dollar ring. just a suggestion. Also I think proposals should be somewhere quiet. Just you and her. No music, no candlelight. You dont want her to say yes just because it feels romantic. You want her to mean it. You want her to jump into this life with you with both eyes open. Marriages should be meant to last forever. Do it because you want to wake up next to her everyday. Do it because when you have something important happen, she is the first one you want to tell.

Answer 11

take her out to a fancy restaraunt...italians always romantic. then blindfold her and say where youre taking her is a surprise. find a pretty church or maybe a cathedral and right when the clock is about to srike midnight tell her to take off her blindfold. you could maybe like have a dozen roses with the ring on top and ask her when the clock starts striking.

Answer 12

Lot of romantic ideas ... you can either take her to one of the places that means a lot to both of you, a place you met? or like to go? or she lieks? and before you pop out the question look in to her eys, and tell her how you feel about her , get on your knee and ask her to marry you.

Some of other ideas would be to take a nice vacation to gehter , a nice get a way somewhere pretty, like a beach, or another city.

Taker her on a hot air balloon and ask her to marry you there

A romantic dinner in a very nice place, put the ring in an ice cube inside of her drink

Somewhere thats pretty, up on a beach where is not too crowded.

Cook and set an elaborate candlelight table

Bring home an enthusiastic new puppy with a ribbon with the ring

Have a plane sky-write your proposal

Invite her for some games at home. Use Scrabble letters and spell out "Will you marry me?"

Good luck to both of you
