It signifies desperateness for a lady to propose.

I may be a little traditional but I think the guy should propose and not the girl
undecided

If the lady is financially stable than the man, why not? God do not say men should be the only one to propose.

29th of February of every leap year the ladies do purpose marriage to their fiancee, but in general its not a sign of desperation, girls/ladies do realise that they go for what they like and not wait for the guy to make the first move, we are not living on trees or in the cave, time waits for nobody,

Ladies, are you tired of waiting around for your man to propose? Society says that it is the man’s responsibility to take the first step. But really, what are you waiting for? Break the mold and get what you want…the ring! And of course, the man. Here are some ways that you can propose to a man.
The first thing you need to do is put society’s viewpoints on the back burner. If you really want to marry this man but he is taking his time in broaching the subject, gather up your courage and ask for his hand in marriage. If you two are meant for each other, you will get your wish.
All of the emotions that a man goes through when he is getting ready to propose hold true for women. Asking for someone to marry you is a scary question filled with either acceptance or rejection. Since you should know your partner pretty well, take a gander at what his response would be. Some men do not feel comfortable with the woman proposing and this could make things very uncomfortable.
If your man is a Renaissance man, he may be open to the woman proposing. If so, move forward. Your proposal should be a memorable occasion. Create an environment that you will both enjoy and have fond memories of. Perhaps you have a favorite restaurant or park that you like to go to.
Take a trip to your favorite location, slowly approach the subject. Talk about all the wonderful things you love about him and how he completes you. Remember to talk from the heart. So many times we use pre-written speeches but this can sound contrived. Look deep into his eyes, grab him by the hands and pop the question. If you are the type that likes a little flair, get down on one knee much as he would have done. Smile honestly at him the entire time. It will show that you are confident and sure in your decision.
So, if you’ve been waiting for that ring for eternity and your man doesn’t seem to be making a move, if the time is right, go for it. There’s no reason that a lady can’t go after what she wants.

Well. It really not a forbidden thing. Just that a number of considerations are necessary.
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by izeek(m): 2:28pm On Sep 17, 2009

she knows what she wants and is going for it.

just that in this parts she is seen as loose, most expecially when the relationship dont last long.

Needless to say, it is not about her needfully doing the needful that is the problem, but how the needful is needfully done! grin grin grin

Well, I got that rude shock, and I can surely say, I was startled. Still mulling over it. . . . If a lady truly knows what she wants and values a man, she should go for the man.

Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by elelem(m): 3:28pm On Sep 17, 2009
I dont think there is any thing wrong with a lady popping up the question if she so desires .
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by henryhemon(m): 5:23pm On Sep 17, 2009
it is called maturity,it is not a bad thing.
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by MissyB1(m): 5:36pm On Sep 17, 2009
E'hugh!!

You people sef!!
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by henryhemon(m): 5:50pm On Sep 17, 2009

If I bump into Colin Farrell for the 1st time and ask him to marry me,
I'm immediately seen as a matured person even tho I might have spent all my life being and acting like a tot? undecided

There's a difference btw Bravery and maturity.

Neways, t's Your opinion . . . .atleast, there's freedom to that. smiley
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by henryhemon(m): 6:13pm On Sep 17, 2009
@missy b,
She might not ve bumped into him,she must taken time to study him before she made her move.
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by MissyB1(m): 6:21pm On Sep 17, 2009
I understand that. What I'm saying is . . . . . .
Knowing what You want and going for it doesn't equal maturity. Bravery? Prolly.

No qualms tho . . . .Carry on wiff the topic as I wouldn't
want to derail the thread any further. smiley
Re: Is It Right For A Lady To Propose To A Guy? by Fiona0007: 9:50pm On Sep 17, 2009

It's probably not how a lady wants if she can help it.
