To be curious about how many times women have been proposed to or engaged?

I find it so interesting hearing about women’s past experiences, especially when it comes to proposals or engagements. Some people are only proposed to once, while others have different stories.

How many times has it happened for you and what’s the story behind it?

Yep Op - if your curious Google it.

Never proposed to, I suppose technically engaged once and married once.

OK adjective/colour/animal name with no posting history.

If it looks like a bot, and sounds like a bot, chances are, it's a bot.
