Don't forget taking care of babies and obeying her man. Important woman's work right there.

I prefer doing housework myself, because you men always screw it up so badly that just have to come clean it anyway. Same goes for cooking.
edit: This is not what I wanted out of my traditionalism comment.Also, I will say that I dislike gold rings as well.

I second that motion. Besides, cooking is soothing to me
That is awesome.
GTA: Beverley Hills?
Almost 100% of brides I talk to when I ask about the proposal and whether or not they were surprised told me that they were surprised by when it happened, and how it happened, but not that it actually happened.
IE: They knew that a formal proposal was on the way but they didn't know that it would take place during class hours, in front of a room of 1st graders, and that Steve Young from the 49ers (bride's FAVORITE team) would walk in with a signed jersey and tell her that her boyfriend has a "very special question" to ask her. Or that it would happen in front of a freakin' castle while in France. etc. etc. A good friend of mine got engaged while on a surprise trip to Hawaii her boyfriend planned for her. She knew it was coming, but I'm sure it was still so much fun for her to go along with anyway.
So this idea that people are getting married in a, "oh, I never thought about this happening!" sort of way and that's the reason why you would turn up your nose at proposals is kinda... I dunno. That's not really how it happens in the real world as far as my experience goes. One of my most recent brides told me that she knew that the proposal was coming within the week, but didn't know the specific date.
I guess you can wonder why you need to make a big to do about a "formal" proposal when you've already had a thorough conversation about marriage. But what's wrong with having a little fun with grand gestures of love? Something out of the ordinary and beautiful and personal. It makes for a great story, that's for sure. And life should be full of great stories. I will never get sick of hearing proposal stories.
I always liked the idea of something big and fancy like that, but in reality, it's just not my thing. I'm not ooy-gooy and romantic like most girls are. In fact I'm not even sure how to be. I don't like dates, I don't like going to the movies, I don't like cuddling or holding hands (except with Anya) And if put in a "romantic" situation I would probably just look like a crazy loser. Ravi told me once he was going to make a huge to-do about proposing in public and all that crap and I got really flustered and kinda angry at the idea because I would much rather it be personal and just the two of us.
If by 'kick' you mean, 'give you a sammich'.
The best place to propose to someone is in a bass drum. The best place for anything is in a bass drum. Put your cat in a bass drum.![]()
On the beach where we went for our first date, under a full moon, on his knee.
Yes, it was pretty perfect.
No I mean kick as in kick you in the balls >:{
There's a Taco Bell hot sauce packet that says "Will you marry me?" on it for some reason, and my boyfriend threw it at my head and ran off. That's how I knew he was the one.
Proposals are pointless. So are rings. So are weddings. So is marriage.
