OhMyG0d:
why the bitterness oozing from you?
What you termed archaic and old fashioned was once the NORM.
So, because someone knelt down for his girl to make proposal, we should just accept that as the ONLY way or everyone should just follow same pattern and never innovate their own?

I've seen where a guy proposed to his lady by inserting a ring into the bread she will eat. She took a bite and holla, there was the ring ring in her mouth... Brought it out and wanted to flare up with the waiter, before her guy calmly used same ring to proposed.

If everyone proposal is Outstanding, then, i think i should innovate and Stand Out among them.

No be someone started Pre-wedding Pictures posting? It was dumb then, but ALMOST everyone out there have caught its Fever.
Don't mind these girls. They usually take things like this so serious forgetting that the important thing is for the marriage to be blissful.

If I have no other option and the only way I can propose to my woman is through the phone, I sure as hell will and it is expected that she understands due to the situation on ground.

And as for the kneeling part, it's just funny how these girls set unnecessary rules or protocols to be observed before telling your woman you wanna stay with her forever.

While I'm not condemning such methods, room should be given for different other ways for a proposal to happen. I wonder if a girl will throw away years of courting simply because their men didn't do it the way they wanted.

That would be pure foolishness. undecided

Tricky.

Let me give a Scenario. Anne and Peter were just close friends before Peter travelled out to the U.S.
They both kept in touch, and talked from time to time. They wanted to date but chose not to because of distance.

Anne later had a boyfriend but she just couldnt see a future with him. She told Peter after a while that her boyfriend has been talking about marriage recently and she wasnt sure about accepting it.

Peter finally saw this as an opportunity to propose to Anne since he was coming home soon after his studies. In order for Anne not to accept her Boyfriend's proposal, he decides to propose via phone call.

In this scenario Ladies, do you still find it awkward/ unromantic knowing well that Anne would accept his proposal now?
So true, events/situations/circumstances differ... perfect scenario.

"Many years back, a man proposed to me over the phone. To make matters more baffling, he proposed via text message. I was weak.

I later asked him if that is how men propose to women in his village and his response was "My father proposed to my mother through NIPOST". And he meant every word." Lol - (Chioma said)

So ladies and gents, can you make or accept a phone proposal? Lets Discuss

I bet some will still say YES over the phone when he's so rich and you have more to loose if you say NO
Re: Is Proposing Marriage Over The Phone Silly? by DedeNkem: 2:22am On Dec 03, 2016
If the guy is in different country, yes, it's acceptable.

If he is in the same country as you, then it's wrong. Nothing stops him from doing it in person.

Oh my goodness i'm just planning to confessed my feelings to chinoenye through phone call since i am not so sure whether she would make it on sunday or not (see me)...she usually kept telling me she can't see me on sundays because of her strict mother, with this trivial i decided to have second option by proposing to her on phone!
