Proposing to my girlfriend

32 replies

Wildee01 · 12/08/2014 16:50

So I want to propose to my girlfriend but i don't know how.. We're coming up for our 1 year anniversary and we haven't had the smoothest relationship and a fair bit has happened in the past year but I love her and I want to spend the rest of my with her and her son, I want a family and to be married to her. I'm pretty sure she'll say yes as we were engaged before but I was a idiot got scared and called it off

I just don't know how to do it, any help?

I agree - sorry but a pizza topping doesn't say "I'm serious this time!" haha. Although it is quite sweet and cheesy (if you'll pardon the expression!) if all is well otherwise (ie no broken engagement) x

Surely a proposal idea should be something personal between you and her? Not someone else's idea of how it should be?
How did you propose last time?

My ex-h proposed to me when we were both off our faces on ecstasy. Oh it seemed like such a good idea at the time!

Dont do it! You've only been together a year and you've already had a rocky relationship, been engaged and called it off already, all in a year?

Trust your initial instinct which scared you off. This is the time when its all petals and moonrockets, yet it seems more like nettles and something else not nice thats associated with space.

Id say give it some time. If you both love one another, and your love is real then your love will be able to wait another year or two.

If you are going to ask, what about "Id like to get engaged again, do you want to as well, sorry about last time, I promise I wont change my mind again".

Hope it all works out for the best.
