The act of proposing is just an act of promise, it's symbolic. Where the work is, is when you carry the responsibilities of a proposer. And I'm 100% sure that's not something your friend wants to carry.

So after she proposed to him, will she also pay his groom price, then sponsor their wedding, then pay for honeymoon, have a house for him to move into later on? And he probably will bear her surname?

The act of proposal is basically a man saying, "I owe you marital responsibilities". I will provide for you, care for you, love you, and see you as a part of me. Its a statement that carries weight.

Since men carry the burden of performance, he has the responsibility to propose, it's it him declaring to you that he is willing to be your performer.

Men are like drivers, and women are like passengers. You'll only enter a bus that is going to direction you want. So a man's proposals is like saying, hey, I'm going to Abuja, it's better than Lagos, are you onboarding?

Then as a woman, you decide if Abuja is better than Lagos, or Cotonou, or Paris. You choose from your options and pick the best. This is the natural dynamic.

So if you propose to a man, it's like a passenger forcing the driver to go Enugu when he is not ready, or don't want to go there. Also you don't want to put the wrong driver in the steering.

If you understand my alalogy, then proposing is not your job as a woman. Refrain from it. You may ask him where this relationship is heading, to determine your next step.

Why can't she simply discuss marriage with him and see his reaction? If he gives negative vibes or I don't care attitude she should jejely move on.

I'll say yes, then she'll go and see my parents and collect marriage and groom price list.

She'll bear 100% of the marital expenses in both the traditional and with wedding respectively.

After the wedding, I'll remain the head of the home and she'll bear my name.

I don't have a girlfriend but if Nigerian vagina person proposes marriage to me, I will see it that I'm being targeted for an an evil attack and that is when I will get a visa and leave this country for good. I can not leave my current career and turn myself to wild dog's trainer. Unlike our mothers, the street dogs we have now are better left alone, no need domesticating them. Just fucck your turn and move on.

Labake1, ask your friend (even though I know it's you), when she proposes to him, will she also pay his groom price?

Bear the cost of the wedding?

Handle all the financial aspects of the wedding?

Or she will just place expenses on someone that wasn't expecting it or is not even ready for it?

Is that the plan?

Kid dating kid. Waiting be propose or not propoose. Where's the communication...there are many ways to pop out a proposal question" what could likely hold a guy from getting married after meeting the family. The response will determine your next move, except you are not dating your friend.

I'll say No.
Don't try that, real life ain't what you see in movies and social media.

There are better ways to this.
Have you discussed when you guys want to marry at all because that's what courtship is about and not only meeting each others parents.

Bring up wedding discussions with him.
Be close to his friends to get better hint on possible moves.
Talk, talk and talk.

Most proposals you see online are just to please society and peers because most are done after fixing wedding dates.

A man doesn't have to propose before you get married, just a western culture. (Thou I regret not doing so because I found out my wife wanted it)

I'm tired now , coming back to add more details
