What'd you Expect on Here? wrote:
Don't do it on her birthday. That's just lame - it's one of the few days of the year that is supposed to be about her and her alone. This makes it about both of you. Instead, do something crazy and original, like get your cock pierced - with the engagement ring as the piece. Then propose to her when she's about to go down on you. She'll unzip your pants and see the ring and it'll be awesome. Then, after she says yes, you can get a b.j.!
Whatever you do, don't hide it in some food...most of the time, the ring will just get eaten and you'll have to sift through her shit to find it. If you like that sort of thing, it's cool but if not, you better just stick to the cock piercing.
No need to thank me for the advice. I and the rest of this board would, however, appreciate updates. Especially on whether you gave her a facial.
Oh my god that was so f***ed. (But funny)
What do you think? Good idea? Bad idea?
Good idea, because then you don't have to get her a birthday present also. I mean, if you are going to propose anyway. I'm not passing judgment on whether your engagement and subsequent marriage to this person is a good idea. Just that you'll save yourself a few bucks by making the engagement ring also her birthday present.
I save get a really large box and wrap it up and then fill it with tons of those annoying styrofoam popcorn things and place the tiny ring box in there somewhere. And make her dig around for a while to find it. And after she does I'll bet you'll get some.
If she is anticipating/expecting a proposal, don't do it. It will seem too "planned". Wait until a day or two after her b-day and do it then, when she least expects it.
If this is pretty much out of the blue (she doesn't expect it) then I say go for it!! :)

If you two end up divorced for some reasons, then she will associate her birthday with something perhaps that ends of negative. Pick another day.
you could try asking her out first, stalker.
Let's get this right.
You're soliciting MARITAL ADVICE on LetsRUN.com?
Go back and read that and then consider the relative merits of enlisting the dating advice of a preponderence of 15 year old males who spend their Friday nights at home posting on Letsrun.com about how they saw Rashid Ramzi sticking a needle into his femur in their dream.

Now there's a great line of thinking: Plan your proposal so that when the two of you eventually become divorced, it will be less emotionally scarring for her. I can't think of a better mindset to enter a marriage with.
that sounds great. You should also do it at a Triple-A baseball game, maybe the end of the 4th inning between "Race the Bases" and "Dizzy Bat"
or you could also use a Powerpoint presentation
That's a great idea. If she accepts, you should have the wedding on her birthday, too. Then, once you're settled into the marriage thing, you can forget her birthday and your anniversary in one fell swoop. It's economical.
Her birthday isn't February 14th, by chance, is it?
I think that it's a good idea, you can take her out to a nice romantic dinner and she will think you are doing it for her birthday.
9 replies and no-one has remembered to tell "j. belt" that the secret is to propose with Powerpoint. Slow day round here obviously ...
umm, yes someone already said that. It wasn't funny then either.As for the original post if you think that she is really wanting you to ask then do it. If there is even a slight possibility that she might say no then don't do it. If she recently asked you to go on the Maury show don't do it.If you two have already discussed it and she seems excited about it then do it. It will be the best present she could ask for.

I proposed to my wife on her birthday.
She asked if she could think about it.
She obviously agreed eventually but I really could have used a good power point presentation to make my case and get a "yes" right away.

Are you kidding? Why doesn't he just bag the whole idea b/c it could possibly end poorly. Might as well spend his whole life alone and sad.
It's already a special day for her. Wait and create another special day.
Do not, I repeat, do not, get married. Fifteen years from now when she's more interested in anything else on the planet instead of sex, you'll thank me.

Girl's birthday? So you're proposing to her mom?
It may be cynical but one thing to consider is that if you propose on her birthday and then you two don't get up getting married she gets to keep the ring because it was technicly a "gift" but if you propose on a different day it is part of an agreement contingent on you two getting married so you get the ring back.
