How would you ask someone to marry you.

Saw a commercial today of a couple eating some chinese dinner then at the end when she opened her fortune cookie there was a ring inside, thought it was kind of cool.

My goodness Kenn, I had no idea you had four children! I never intended to deem you as a young punk, but my concerns for others get the best of me. I praise you and your great soon to be wife and wish for a bright future for your children. Be safe! :thumbsup:

Thanx Innominate, thats heaps nice of you man, no offence taken I still enjoyed reading ur comments and if I was younger with no kids I would agree with you.:thumbsup:

We'd gone out to a romantic dinner the night before and he'd been acting funny and nervous for two days. I think he was planning to ask at dinner the night before but lost his nerve.

Christmas is a good time to ask. For one thing, if there's a ring involved, everyone can look at it at Christmas parties. Jewelry always makes a good Christmas present and engagement makes for good holiday memories. And if you ask around holiday time, it gives you plenty of time to plan a spring or summer wedding.

aw thats so sweet!! and you made me laugh with the 'you can show it off at xmas parties'

man i cannot wait to get a good guy who will hopefully propose to me. with a georgus rock. of course i dont care much about the ring but a girl can dream of a 10k d flawless diamond cant she?

Congrates Bro hope everything goes good

take her to a public place... really populated, and work around (ever so slowly) to marriage.... you know like 10 questions or so... starting with "do you love me?" don't semi-fire 'em off.... space 'em out over dinner ina really nice place.... order a bottle of wine/champaign, toss the matride (sp?) a 20, to put the ring on a saucer or something and place it infront of when sh'es not paying attention atm.... maybe even have a roll over it... if she doesn't grab for it, ask her to hand it to you.... by the time the initial 'wtf' is overdrop to your knee.... and you know th erest...

make your own lines originally is a huge plus....

but like:

<name> i think we're very close, so i now have the confidence for this.... i dream of you almost every night, and th eonly nightmare i ever have is you not in my life.... i want to wake up feeling every morning what i do now, i want to spend my life with you... i love you more then words can express, and material is nothing, the ring is for tradition... the real treasure here is the love and dedication you've given me, will you give me a chance to return it 10 fold as you deserve? will you marry me and love me forever?
