Guys-FYI

Just thought I would take the time to post a note to any male members (guys, not the other) who read this, on how not to propose marriage. Because they have all happened to me, and needless to say I am still not married.

• After the first date, say, "let's go and get married."
• Every time Idaho is mentioned, say, "That is where my parents got married, let's do the same."
• At a retreat, while resting surrounded by friends, say, "When we leave this place babe, lets stop and get a ring and get married."
• While driving by David's Bridal, say, "Why don't you go and pick out a dress and I'll go and get the rings."
• Explain that when you get married, you are going to take a train to Disneyland for your honeymoon, and then say, "You go pick out the ring, I'll make the train reservations."
• While driving and talking about weddings, don't say that having 5 bridesmaids in your wedding is dumb, and in the next breath, say, "So you wanna get married?"
• Each time a wedding is mentioned, don't ask the girl if it is yours and hers.

Make is special, make it memorable, make it so that the girl really does want to marry you and spend the rest of her life with you, not run the other way. I hope this is helpful and brings a smile to your face and possibly reminds you how you proposed or informs you how not to.
