Romantic proposal

So, what is your idea of a romantic proposal…is it all hearts and flowers, the whole package with him down on bended knee, or is it something a little different?

I personally would hate to be a bloke and have the worry of trying to propose and getting it right.  The pressure must be huge!

I have heard stories of many proposals over the years and the intention of the poor guys were to be romantic but the whole thing ended in disaster! (Although they did get to marry the girl in the end)

A friend’s boyfriend took her out for a romantic dinner for Valentine’s night and got the waiter to hide the ring in the special Valentine’s desert that was part of the menu.  Plan was she would find it and fall into his arms!  The reality was somewhat different – she bit into the cake, broke her tooth and she spent the whole evening in excrutiating agony until she could get into see her dentist

Another disaster was when another bloke decided to hang a banner across the front of his girlfriend’s flat asking her to marry him.  Whilst he was hanging it he slipped and fell as she came round the corner and he spent 3 weeks in hospital after surgery on his broken leg.

Maybe us girls are just being plain selfish by expecting our men to think up all these gimmics – after all what is wrong with someone telling you they love you and want to spend the rest of their life with you??  To me that sounds perfect!
