How To Propose To Your Girlfriend

With luck, this will be the only time you get to Propose To Your Girlfriend! You only get one go, so you need to make sure you get it right! Because believe me, when its done, she is going to be explaining everything down to the last detail with everybody she knows; from how you fooled her into thinking you really were away on a business trip right down to how your voice quivered when you popped the question!

Because I care so much…I’m about to tell you exactly How To Propose To Your Girlfriend, as well as some school boy errors to avoid.

1. You should not be surprised by her answer! If you think there’s a chance she might say NO, then you’ve not being going out with her long enough! If on the off chance she says YES then you probably don’t know enough about her in the first place to be asking! If that makes sense?

2. Surprise her! Don’t tell her a week in advance that you’ve booked a hot air balloon ride over the grand canyon! You’d be amazed how many guys are this stupid!

3. If it’s a public proposal then be extra sure she’s going to say yes! Having your proposal brought up on the score board at a half time Football game could be the most humiliating experience of your life

4. Personalise the proposal! If she loves to go camping, then propose to your girlfriend during a camping trip!

5. For heavens sake, look after the ring! Guard it like it’s your precious! Don’t risk losing it as part of your engagement scheme by burying it sand or giving it to an idiot waiter on minimum wage to bring over!

6. Get on one knee! Literally! It’s old and cliché but it’s the vision she’s had of her proposal since she was a little girl, so don’t ruin it!

7. Actually have a ring to hand! Which will show her that you’ve actually gone and planned the whole thing and you’re not just asking her to marry you on a whim!

8. Practice your proposal! Run through every eventuality in your head, know exactly what could go wrong and have a back up plan! Even practice saying the words to your friends, the Dog and to the mirror! Sure you’ll feel stupid, but better that than having her tell all her friends that you bumbled the words when the moment came!

9. Timing is important! If you’re wanting a long engagement then propose to your girlfriend in the spring. You could make the excuse that you want a spring wedding, so you’ll have a whole year to plan (or change your mind). If you want to get the whole thing over with then propose during the winter!
