So my good friend and long time lurker from this board MottaMunda is gonna pop the question friday night. He's been with the luckily lady about 2 years and feels she's the one. He's still not sure how he wants to do it. Lets see if anyone here can come up with the ultimate proposal. Has to be something that can be done short notice. Good Luck MM!
if i remember correctly it was at a club. and she might have been drunk.. lol. Now that i think about it this idea better be damn good. she wont be drunk again.
Go to a video store. Pick up the movie "Hitch", and ask her if she wants to "get that in the past tense." Guaranteed to work on dorky English majors with a pun fetish.
oh, uh never mind then. When I proposed to my high school sweetheart i set up an elaborate plan where I would geet her to come to our old high school. I then had a plan to get her up to the exact classroom. exact chair, exact time of day where we met so I could propose there. This plan involved 6 or 7 people, including people that worked at the high school. Notice I said "plan". Ya she woke up late, called me and asked if I could pick up MickeyD's Breakfast for her... Ended up doing somrthing else...
You could always put it on a "Slim Jim", and toss it over to her. Course, I tried that, and the marriage didn't last.
Get a fake finger from one of those costume shops and put the ring on it. Then, go buy some Wendy's chili and have her find it while she's eating it.
Do NOT: -Try it at halftime of a game. That doesn't always work out. -Say, "well, I talked to my tax accountant, and he thinks we can get married this year without getting hit too hard." -Wait around until you get in an argument, wait for her to get unsettled about the whole relationship, ask her if she still wants to marry you, and make her pick yes or no (she'll say yes to keep her options open, without realizing that this is it, the actual proposal). -Sneak a ring onto her finger from behind when she's not looking.
The "Sneak a ring onto her finger from behind when she's not looking." sounds downright hilarious. Although it would probably work a little better if you do it while she's sleeping.
Maybe at the zoo, in front of the lions or something. Instead of saying "Will you marry me?" he can just pop down on one knee and say as romantically as possible: "Roarrrr! Roarrr! Roarrr!! Grrr! Roarrr.....Purrrrrr!"
For what it's worth, I saw lions at a zoo once doing something I probably should not describe in detail on this board. Let's just say it was not very romantic.
The best marriage proposal ever comes courtesy of Rocky: "I was wondering if you wouldn't mind marrying me very much."
Alright, after thinking about it for about a good 25 minutes and wasting work time, I've come up with something 'doable' given the time contraints. This was a bit of challenge for me to see if I could come up with something creative on short notice. Keep in mind, I don't know your friend, so I really don't know if this fits his or his lady's personality. Anyways, here goes my shot in the dark (and I expect to be fully flamed by everyone, cause I'm a cheese ball). After work friday, tell her that you've been having a real long day at work and that you're kinda bummed and you just kinda want to get smashed, but you just want to unwind with just her and you. Go to your favorite restaurant/bar, order food and lots to drink, but the thing is you have to find some way not to get drunk and messed up, but pretend that you are; she's got to be the designated driver. So fast-forward and there you are, pretending to be all messed up when you're really not, and the nights over and she's driving you home. She helps you get back to your place and helps you into bed, but as you fall into the bed try your best to drop that wedding ring box in such a way that she totally and unmistakenly sees it fall out of your hand. Pretend to be almost totally knocked out, but keep your eyes on her to see if she picks it up. If she picks it or simply just stays there, don't get up, and from the same position as your were on the bed (I imagined you'd be lying on your back), say coherently to her something to this effect: "You know you've been taking care of me all night and listening to all the things that I complain about...and although this is one of the things I love most about you, I just want you to know that you've got it upside down...." Get your sorry butt off the bed, get down on one knee and look at her straight in the eyes so that she knows for a fact that you're not drunk. "I want to take care of you for the rest of my life and if I'm lucky...you'll let me do exactly that..." Pop the question, hopefully she'll say yes, turn on Clapton's Wonderful Tonite and conceive the first of your many babies (name one of the kids Boo will ya). Now, this will only work if she sticks around after you 'accidentally' drop the wedding ring case...but the beautiful part of the plan is that if she bolts outta your place...the next morning pretend like nothing happend....and go back to the drawing board. Whew...as you can see I put too much thought into this to now throw this post away...anways people flame away!
