Hey guys/gals

So I'm going to go guns blazing, no guts no glory style and ask this girl to marry me.

I know the ring is important, and I have an idea about the size it should be, but in case I'm wrong would it be able to adjust easily?

That being beside the point.

I'd like to hear what you guys did to get the YES. I'm about 50% on this that she would actually say yes or not

Was thinking I should take her out on the date we had the very first time that made her fall for me (not going to tell the whole story now but anyway)

What to do to sweep her off her feet and get her to live in the moment and not think about the crap divorce her folks had and that she might be too young (21) to get married and and and and etc...

No I'm not willing to make her drunk for this

Stories / advice please :D

Sorry about going off topic already, but aren't you just a youngster yourself? Or am I thinking of someone else.
 
I'm only ever going to ask 1 woman to marry me... when she comes back to South Africa that is ;)
There is NO other woman who deserves me ;)

I doubt Charlize Theron would come back dude, thats a lost cause
 
dude firstly, dont buy a ring

buy a cheap ring, then take her to a designer to get one designed and let her choose what she wants

going into a store and buying a ring is so random, my fiancee loved this and has her own ring that nobody else will ever have

take her out to dinner, also remember it seems like something easy to do but believe me when the moment comes and you start thinking about how you are going to do it your heart races and you get so nervous

i found a few drinks helped me alot

Well I'm not the most romantic of men, but what I can say is that for most woman there is no such thing as too romantic or soppy. My advice (forwhat its worth) would be to steal an idea from her favourite chick.

Cool idea.
 
dude, good luck!
Marrige is an awesome thing, just make sure she isnt going to change - what I mean by that is when people are that age they arent 100% set in theri personalities yet and can sometimes change for the worse...

As for the ring size that can be adjusted, just try not to get a very complex band as the resizing can make it look badly designed if too much has to come off/get added on.

Proposal, all I can say is be flexible!!
I had mine all planned out and was on route until my aircon seized and took out the waterpump/powersteering belt with it :(
If your plans arent going teh way you want them then just pull back for a second, relax and re-evaulate. Its a once in a lifetime(hopefully) thing so rather get it right!

Would you say you were 100% sure she'd say yes? I was thinking I'd give her the option to design the other ring, and that the engagement one was one I chose...?

Cheap? How cheap? and if I do that and not flash a nice ring, how'd I get her to say yes?

If she loves you, she won't be looking at the price/worth of the ring! If she is, stay away!

No I doubt its going to be like that but I'd still want to take her breath away you know? especially because I'm not sure what she'll say
 
A couple of hundred for a plaing gold band.

ettubrute is right. If the first thing she considers is the value of the ring then you've just learnt something very important about her.
 
no i mean the ring you put on her finger will be cheap and you tell her she can design her own one

im not saying buy her a cheap ring, its just something to put on her finger until she gets one designed

if you need a flashy ring to get to say yes then your not dating a decent girl man

if she is worried about money and that sort of thing then i hope she is blonde big tits and screws like a porn star

still would not marry her though
