I proposed on the phone, by asking if I should get "accompanied" or "unaccompanied" orders overseas. After explaining what those terms meant, in the context of a US Navy move, I got the answer: "Accompanied," and that was that.
The navy could not wait, and I was going one way or the other. I only had an hour to get back to the detailer.
Having said that, I like that commercial that has been showing recently. Take her to a couple of places that are special, and then take her to a new place, If she asks why here, tell her it is very special, then pop the question.
So what areas/parks/locations would you suggest to ask my lovely lady for her hand in marriage? I've been thinking about this for a while, and the main thing that hinders me is my lack of knowledge of the area, so I'm trying to get a good list of places to research more and plan things.
Thank you SO MUCH for any help you can offer.
Any Waffle House will do.
I AM JUST KIDDING!
Are you willing to travel to the mountains or coast or do you want to remain local?
In a canoe on a perfect spring day after a picnic lunch that you prepared.
Have someone on the bank to play/sing a lovesong as you paddle by
then pop the question.
my fiance made a scavenger hunt for me in my neighborhood...it worked nicely bc I had NO idea he was in town (long distance relationship) it was really sweet, and it did not require a "special" setting...yet still worked out to be a great story!
Well, I guess I have to be the one to say "Don't do it!" Really, don't do it.
But if you feel like you have to, maybe you shouldn't plan it. Just carry the ring around with you for a few weeks or months or however long it takes. At some point in time when you are together all the stars will align, birds will be singing, and the sunlight glistening off her hair, and you'll just feel that that particular moment is it, and that everything will be OK. It could be a walk in the park, or the middle of the farmers market. It's the what, not the where or when that matters. It's just you, her, a humble ring, and your commitment to her that makes it special.
If it's me gettin' asked, the ring had better not be humble. I think the word "ostentatious" describes what I'm looking for...
