A Man Down On His Kneels While Proposing Marriage To His Fiancee. by wisyno(m): 10:50pm On Jan 17, 2011
I saw this guy & his girlfriend sitting by a table beside me in a fast food joint on a cool evening. Didn't really give them much attention, until i notice the guy kneeling by the girl, presenting a ring & obviously asking her to marry him. I was not too surprise because i've seen such love scenes in movies, but seeing it live is just making me wonder if it really makes sense for a man to be in a begging position (kneeing down) before his girl, (who is supposed to love him) would agree to marry him. Some say it's romantic but i don't think so. For heaven's sake, girls even desire marriage more than the guys.

Yeah I agree with you. After putting all the effort and money into buying the ring  embarassed, and the relationship, I think she should be the one kneeling down to accept my proposal lol  lipsrsealed.

Best to do it lying down in bed tongue.

Kneeling down, lying down, sitting down, flopping down, flapping down. Whats the difference? The important thing is that she accepts to nag you for eternity. undecided
Re: A Man Down On His Kneels While Proposing Marriage To His Fiancee. by LordReed(m): 3:07am On Jan 18, 2011
It's simple. Women are emotional creatures n dat acting of kneeling down throws em for a loop it registers in their brain differently from a man so the kneel aint ur trip but hers. It will not demean ur position but rather stengthen it.

Marriage is like a business contract for life which shld be mutually beneficial for both partners. U don't win a business contract by begging for it, rather u earn it by showing that u are capable of delivering on ur end of the bargain. What women really want to see is ur ability as a 'man' in all sense of the word and not some undignifying, often confused as romantic way of proposing a life time union. Some guys do dat mainly becos they want to imitate wat they saw in a romantic film.
Re: A Man Down On His Kneels While Proposing Marriage To His Fiancee. by Nobody: 2:27pm On Jan 18, 2011
Well I believe its elegant and traditional. I can't imagine a guy proposing to me and not kneeling down, God I will give him one strange look tongue

nonsense! Tried it once when I wanted one correct chic to marry me. She said I was a WUSSY.

Since then, I NEVER EVER do that shit. If you'll marry me, I dont have to beg for it. It's a two-way thing. We are both in it - enjoy it together or suffer it together.

Guys, take note o. That kneeling down stuff does not please women. It even makes them dislike you sef.

The woman called you a wuss because you are a wuss and not because you got on one knee to propose.

Getting on one knee to propose is a western gesture which is from the idea of being a gentle man when you propose. Besides some Nigerian cultures do worse. Like when you go to a traditional yoruba marriage the husband and his friends postrate (lay on the floor face down) in front of the bride and her parents begging for permission to marry their daugther ( i have seen that with my eyes) Buying cases and cases of yams cloths cows and money for dowry all goes in that direction too. I mean i would rather get on one knee than to be a nally ra ped by buying all that stuff just because i want to get married

Well - Today I Have Had the Pleasure of Reading from a "REAL MAN." I cannot bow to you - because my knees belong to "my man." But I can definitely remove my head-scarve and curtsey.

SAY IT LOUD Mr. Orton, SAY IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN.

My 2 cents - as many times, in countless way, I will be on my knees for my man - the owner of his rib (me).

My heart will melt to see him on his knee [few times - because I don't want him down there much] during our different life-cycle events. (engagements, marriage, etc.)

To see him on his knee [those few times] - will make me gladly drop to my knees [all the time].

And a man that can't understand that or see its necessity in my regard - isn't the man for me.

Knee-dropping isn't about the "romance or the movies," it is about showing your significant other, your life partner that you definitely possess the "rare competency" to be willing to "give all" to the relationship. Giving your time, your pride, your self [being selfless] - walks your talk for you, as you no longer have to open your mouth - because your actions speak louder than your words.

If I am willing and will in deed - wash his feet with my hair (no weave), massage, kiss, lick, etc. his entire body; his dropping to his knee on rare and special occasions should be spontaneous and come from the heart. If it doesn't - he belongs to another and not me.

Girl, did you say lick his entire body? You go girl. wink Just stay away from the anus. That all Imma say.
Re: A Man Down On His Kneels While Proposing Marriage To His Fiancee. by ShyOne(f): 6:26pm On Jan 18, 2011
@ Chima

lololololol - what didn't you understand? lolololol

Sorry, but when I say the "entire body" - I mean the "entire body."  That's why dropping to his knee(s) - shouldn't be a problem but should be instantanteous.

capiche?

Hey how is your day today?

OP.
I 'm with you!. . . .Kneeling down while proposing to a lady means notthing romantic to me,And i don't think i can do it.
Also there are many magic and romantic ways i can use proposing to a lady.
But i'm not saying there is nothing wrong with doing it ,But i just can't!

Countless men have been doing so since Adam and Eve.

If you love and respect the future mother of your children, you should even do more to honour her.

@ rokiatu, saying u can't imagine a man proposing to u witout kneeling simply shows ur huge ego. Wat if he is ur dream man & he wouldn't do dat while giving u the ring? Would u deny the truth & reject his proposal for such a flimsy reason?
Re: A Man Down On His Kneels While Proposing Marriage To His Fiancee. by Onchedu(m): 10:31am On Jan 19, 2011
I doubt very strongly that I will be kneeling down to propose marriage to any woman. Not like I can't kneel, I just don't see the essence.
