Proposing to your girlfriend is something that hopefully you’re only going to do once! Hopefully!!! Before you propose to your girlfriend, read these tips to give yourself a little advantage!
1. Lawyers only ask the question if they know the answer! So should you! If you think there’s a chance she’s not going to say “yes” then you probably haven’t been seeing her long enough!
2. Only make it a public proposal if you’re extra certain the answer is “yes” otherwise you risk making your happy day the most humiliating experience of your life!
3. You really have to surprise the girl! Eliminate any chance of her finding out by only enlisting the help of trusted friends who can keep quiet.
4. Always personalize your engagement proposal! You know her better than anybody else so this should be easy. Never carbon copy an idea you read on the web or in a magazine!
5. Always take a knee! It’s old, corny and cliche but its how she always imagined her proposal would be since she was a little girl so don’t disappoint her!
6. Guard the ring! Never risk losing it as part of your ingenious engagement scheme by giving it to the Cat to bring over or burying it in sand!
7. Keep good eye contact! She’ll know that you mean it this way and also show confidence which she’ll find attractive!
8. Ambiance is important to a successful proposal she’ll always remember! Most girls would rather have candles, moonlight, good food and music over a public proposal in front of people she doesn’t know!
9. Timing! If you would like a long proposal then propose in the spring! You could go for a spring wedding the following year! If you propose in the winter then it could be a very short engagement before you tie the knot!
10. Just relax! It’ll go fine just as long as everything is planned like a military operation! This is your big moment, good luck!
