OK...how the hell do I pop the question to my girlfriend? Ya know...the.. "will you marry me?", question. I don't wanna do anything cheesy like put the ring in her champagne glass or anything like that. Any ideas that aren't too typical?
How about this: a jack-in-the-box toy. Custom made just for her. OK, this is a shameless plug for my business- this is what I do. Handcrafted, portrait jack-in-the-box toys. They are wooden, working, musical boxes. I sculpt a portrait of you from a few photos, hand paint the wooden box with things that mean something special to the two of you, and you can even choose from about 20 different music box tunes. When it pops up, it's you with the ring tied to your little hands. Fun AND unique!
Now, you can literally POP the question! www.popartcreations.com I am a one-woman show, and will work with you to come up with something awesome for the box. Good Luck!!! -Heather (Pop Art Creations).
Take her down to the beach at night and while your looking at the moon get down on one knee and say a poem and give her the ring.The poem could go like this: her Name how sweet the sound I once was lost but now I am found I once was blind but now I see Her name will you marry me? Give her the ring as soon as you finish the poem.
Depends on the time of year I guess, and mine may be extra cheesy. Anyway, I take a lot of pictures, so I combined mine with other peoples and....
I made a picture album with pictures from all of the memorable moments of our dating history, under each one I wrote why it was memorable. This was her Christmas gift from me to her one year...on the last page of the album was a picture of a diamond ring. At that time, I pulled the ring out of a pocket in the couch next to me, got on one knee and the roller coaster has been spinning since.
That leather bound photo album was a hit among her friends and family from that day to well past the bridal showers, I felt good about that part...
I had the best idea ever. If you've seen knocked up, you know he proposed to her with an empty box. Well, I think you could do that, except have the ring in your pocket and then while she's sitting in that stunned silence, take it out. She'd be first elated that you asked to marry her, and then that you got her a ring being a completely separate surprise. It'd be pretty good. Maybe a little cheesy, but cute and not cliche. I might use that one, except that's not going to happen for a few years yet. =P
Take her for a walk in the park one early evening, just around sunset. Some time along the walk, stop, look her in the eyes (with the ring box in your hand) and slip the box into her hand while telling her that you love her and want to spend the rest of your life with her and ask her if she'll marry you. Make certain there are no other people around, it's a private thing between two loving people. What ever you do, don't ask her at a restaurant in front of a bunch of other people (or family). It's private - keep it that way, so no one feels pressured, obligated or hurt. It's inexpensive, too, so you can splurge on the ring!!
Of all the things that bother me the most about human relationships, I suppose the fact that people allow life to turn them into angry children affects me most. This is because the issue becomes two...
I have often wondered about the communication breakdown that almost inevitably occurs between a man and a woman when they start dating. From the time I was in Elementary School, up to the present,...
