Is A Marriage Proposal Lately Meant To Be A Suprise?? by tyconcepts(f): 6:36am On Oct 07, 2014
I don't get the hype and the "whoa" face ladies make at the sight of engagement rings lately.

After dating for 2-4years doing things married people do normally, you expect to be asked "will you marry me" at a point so why the make-up surprise face at the question?

You have a point tho' but doesn't "feigning" surprised at the question makes it look as though he is doing you a favour?

I think this trend is more subscribed by the ladies to maintain modernity, glitz and the hype while in the actual sense great percentage of ladies eagerly awaits such moment then fake it to high heavens in their fantasy of "surprise".

I concur with your sentiment on this issue wholeheartedly. Men may employ dynamics to the engagement to spice it up but usually their female lover already knows what she'd expect.

Seagold you get me totally. If a relationship is altar bound, the signs are there and if its the other way round, the signs too are obvious, before being asked "will you marry me" ladies know its headed in that direction already. Well obviously the "surprise" is just to compliment the spice effort the guy puts in asking.

If it isn't a surprise, it isn't a marriage proposal. It's a birthday gift or whatever. Psychos.....

i think its a show of happiness and fufilment. I mean, if after dating for 2-4 yrs and he chooses some else there is nting you can do. So if he propose you should be suprisingly happy.

I agree with you that one will know that the relationship is altar bound but you cannot be too sure when you don't know what's going on in his minds.... I agree some fake it because they don't want to break from the norm and in order to boost their would be husband's ego

Surprise in the marriage....YES
The fake or must look surprised for the engagement....NO

I mean if "na chop am clean mouth" then we shouldn't be counting years but months but we are counting years then the engagement is always expected.

When belle don show for most of them.

surprise, huh?
Re: Is A Marriage Proposal Lately Meant To Be A Suprise?? by Nobody: 12:42pm On Oct 07, 2014
I think it has to do with the fact that some ladies weren't actually expecting it at that particular point in time, place or with all the drama, so it could be surprising and then a mixture or both surprise and happiness, shyness even...
I believe people who shouldn't show surprise are those who have a kid or 2 already.

Are you 14? Ok let me dignified with a comment.

Courting precedes engagement. In courting, a lady already knows where the relationship is headed and has started discussing family life and expectations with her groom so what actually happen afterwards in form of engagement is immaterial. So why will a lady feigned ignorance of a cause action?

What should be a surprise to a lady is when a random guy meet a lady he'd been admiring but never went close or someone he'd been in a platonic relationship with and pop the question "will u marry me?" and she accepts if indeed the feeling is mutual.

This fallacy of feigned ignorance should be discontinued! Our ladies faking everything since the days of Judas Iscariotgrin

God bless you for being straight to the point..

It is called deceit, dubiousness, foolhardiness that after phu.cking each other for over 2 or 4 years, one person goes on his knees asking to marry another person whom they have discussed over several love making sessions that they would marry, " Will you marry me " ?

That is what we are saying...

Unless the babe is begging him secretly to marry her and he has not made her to understand that he has accepted. That's where i expect her to be surprised at the ring..

But I don't buy those glitz..

When my man asked me to marry him on my birthday (September 7th 2014) I wasn't surprised, I mean why should I be? We practically plan with the word "our" long before the statement. Besides he didn't even ask the question, he said it as a matter of exactly so no shyness, mix of surprise and happiness et all....If you can expect it then we shouldn't be counting years baseless....#Myopinion
