You met a girl you really like, went on dates and got together as a couple. Your 'liking' for this girl develops into 'love' over time. Then it comes a time you feel that you will want to spend the rest of your lives together.
Conventionally, you will plan the next, most natural thing to do. That is to get married! You are ready and you got subdue hints that she is also ready for this commitment as well. So what sort of proposal will you do?
1. Ask If She Wants to Apply For a Flat Together
2. Buy a Ring Together, or
3. Think of a Memorable Way to Propose
If you select 1,
You seriously got to be more creative and stop being so lazy. No doubt it is typical for some guys in Singapore to do just that and get away with it. Your lady may not complain about the lack of initiative and creativity to you. But that doesn't mean its okay! Be it your introvert or serious lack of creative personality, generally all women appreciate other form of proposal (no matter how simple) than just going through the act of flat application with HDB!
You Select 2,
Well if there is a mutual consent, and official seal the deal and commitment agreement before your presentation of the ring to her. Then I guess, you have found a lady who really knows what she wants from this commitment from you. After the purchase, you'll still propose to her and you can be pretty assured that she will not turn you down! =)
You Select 3,
All the ladies will appreciate and love this form of proposal. You do not have to be stress by extravagant creative ideas like a creative director, just plan something that both you and your lady will be comfortable and open to experience. (You should know your lady well enough by this stage) You may get friends or family to help you out. They will be more than happy to assist you.
Even if you want it to be a private affair with a simple proposal, your lady will understand and still love you for it.
Therefore, for all you guys out there, who plan to get married with your lady soon, propose to her with a Ring! Don't let your ego, pride or shyness get the best of you. There are always a different kind of proposal for each individual. So stop finding excuses for yourself and an easy way out.
Show your love and commitment.
Show your love and commitment.
