No offense Chris, but you'll be a lot better off waiting until you find the woman you want to propose to and letting what you know about HER guide you to this answer. Woman are all different. Some love surprises, some hate them. You can't know the best way to propose until you know the woman you are proposing to

awwww, that's so romantic. eventhough I'm at the other end of the marriage spectrum, there's just something so sweet about watching the people getting engaged - there's the hope of a happy ending. good luck with it!

Take her up to a local city's space observatory, and while she's looking at the stars through one of the telescopes, sneak up beside her and slide the diamond engagement ring into her line of vision. Once she sees the ring, look into her eyes and say, "I'll give you the moon and stars, too if you want. Marry me." Oooh, that would be so romantic!

This is a time when some goofy stunt is typically a bad idea. Because what you're trying to do is impose artificial layers of drama atop what is already one of the most dramatic moments of one's life. Here's what you do:

1) Choose a nice restaurant or a romantic spot.
2) Wait until she's nice and relaxed.
3) Kneel down.
4) Open the ring box.
5) Ask.

And, lest you think this is hopelessly stale and unoriginal, let me present Exhibit A and Exhibit B:


Exhibit A



Exhibit B




Here's some more:

I think I fail as a chick in this area, because all of these complicated proposal scenarios do absolutely nothing for me. If you've been seeing someone for long enough that marriage is on the table, it's not a surprise, really, and I don't need a giant ring and a floor show.

The second one involves slapping? I've seen the first. It's just so painful to watch.

Well it won't be all that original if you have to use someone else's ideas on the internet.

Like lovesmountains suggested, wait until you know the girl and you'll have a better idea of what she's appreciate. Not everyone would be blown over by what you might think is a creative proposal.
