Here's an article saying students at one college don't think a woman should propose. I was kind of surprised to think college students feel this way. I think it's kind of old-fashioned that only the man should propose. What do you think? Here's the link:

For those of you who saw the movie Blindside, the couple at the center of the movie did an interview and he was asked when he first realized that the wife was going to run things even though he was a successful businessman. He replied, "When she handed me the ring and told me it was time to propose.''

Personally, I wouldn't... But I don't find anything wrong with. It really depends on the people in the relationship.
ReplyDeleteYes, it does depend on the relationship.

while on the surface -- it seems like it wouldn't matter?
ReplyDeletesomehow it does
In my experience NOTHING will encourage a man to consider marriage until he wants it
nope
NEEDS it
and once he needs it -- He will do whatever it takes -- including -- breakup with you to go find the right woman to marry (if he's ready to marry & you're not the girl)
you hear that all the time -- a guy is with a woman for 7 years -- she always wanted to marry -- he wouldn't -- they break up and he marries some girl he's known 6 months.
asking a man to marry is fruitless.
we just have to let them know that we see them as a long term prospect -- and say yes if we want to
That being said? -- marriage? you can keep it.

Good point about a man has to want it. And you sound down on marriage? Can you share why?

Sadly I have to agree with the first two comments. My first reaction was of course a woman can ask. But really.. not so true.
ReplyDeleteStrange that it is still so one sided.
Yes, interesting it is so onesided in an era where women are being more upfront about what they want and need.

I proposed. Of course it's a longer story than that. But we were in one of those relationships where we'd been together for 7 years and I was ready to get married, and upon reflection, so was he.

Yes, after seven years, he probably needed a nudge.

I wouldn't but personally thinking there is nothing wrong in a women asking. Depends on their relationship.
