Engagement - Proposing

Listen to the Entire Lesson

Other common type of questions regarding pre-marriage is how a person proposes. Here are some examples:

"How are you going to propose to her?"
"How do you think he will propose to you?"

I'll list a few answers I heard from other people.

"I'm going to take her to dinner and I'm going to put the ring on top of the dessert. So when the cake comes out, she will see the ring."

"I'm going to take her to our favorite restaurant and ask her there."

"I'm going all out. First, I'm going to send her to a massage. Then, I'm going to have her relax at a coffee shop where I'll send her some flowers. After that, I'm going to have her picked up in a limo to a restaurant where I'll be waiting in the entrance on my knees."

"When my husband asked me to marry, he put a ring inside a fortune cookie with a message asking, will you marry me in the cookie."

Some other types of questions that you might hear:

"Are you nervous about proposing to her?"
"Are you sure she is going to say yes?"
"Are you sure about this?"
"How long have you been engaged?"
"What are you thinking?"
"You're too young to get married."
"What did you do for your engagement party?"
"Did you guys have an engagement party?"

A friend might ask you questions regarding your relationship when the marriage topic comes up.

"How long have you been with her?"
"What made you decide to get married?"
"Are you sure she is the right one?"
"When did you know he was the right one?"
"Did you see a sign or how did you know?"
