Marriage is more or less irelevant this days,it is a fading man made institution,just like religion,oyibo man traditions.

What is relevant is understanding and compromise.The moment you are with a person,be and give your best,married or not.Any thing short of good is unnecessary.

Hmmmm,

I wonder  why people place so much value on less important issues, Eg. How are guy proposed, The kind of Ring for the Wedding, How the honey moon was spent.  All these things will not guaranty a successful marriage.  There are people who proposed in the most romantic manner and environment, even with the most expensive rings and the best honey moon ever. Where are they today? .


So how the proposal was made and all that should not be the major issue, but how to make the marriage succeed. Well the guy even tried to call on phone to propose. I could propose with text message or email, LOL.


or haven't u see movies where they even write it on paper and the lady accept with joy? Nigerian women sef, una too form, wetin them go do  for una, na too much movie dey worry una.



Your even lucky u are living in this modern age where a guy has to propose, in the days of your parents,O the guy will just bring drink and the parents accept, the next thing your called from the kitchen and your told, ( THIS YOUNG MAN HERE IS YOUNG MAN SITTING HERE IS YOUR HUSBAND).

In todays world where the ratio is 600women to 1man, you even see a man that is willing to propose and u don't like the way he did it, ok, don't accept him and see when another man will come around, may be you might be the one to be proposing .

proposin on d phone is nt jus about 're-inventing d old 4 d new' bt about other factors like distance,job issues,location e.t.c. amongst other things,

By d way u can nt begin 2 propose to an 'ultimate stranger', u hav 2 hav been getting along 4 quite awhile before u start thinkn of signing d 'dotted lines' of committment,

I would personally subscribe 2 anything that WORKS!, besides, proposing is jst a step, 4 d relationshp 2 succed both parties must b ready 2 make it work,

Anyway,if u are oportuned 2 see her face 2 face why nt?, bt if nt, before using d 'phone method' make sure you're well acquinted wit her and u intend 2 'follow up'd phone method with a vist 2 consolidate things,


THERE IS NO USE 2 STOP BEING CREATIVE AS LONG AS UR CREATIVITY PRODUCES MAXIMALLY 4 You!

wishn u d Best!

hmmm, I would say most ladies don't want to see things from a different perspective,

I personall see nothing wrong in proposing over the phone, depending on the circumstances,  all depends on thye personal values of those involved.

I am a living testimony,

dated my college buddy for 'bout 6 years, we had our issues, broke up but still remained very good friends,

when it was time to get 'responsible',   the natural drift was to her, yeah i did propose over the phone, and we were married legally withing 4 weeks, had to fly to lagos over a weekend to do the paper works and the traditional rites,

She never joined me till bout 4 months later, we have since been living happily together thereafter, (counting 2 years now!)

I would say the hype bout marriage proposals and the ceremonies is unnecessary,  folks in the diaspora are more quilty of this!,

The whole essence of marriage is to have a partner, a friend, the processs leading to that is not the most important,

On the lighter side, how many ladies in the house will really mind being proposed to on the phone by some 'she' truly' loves?Huh food for thoughts !!!

Plus creativity is an issue here.

Poposals are human creations, create them right for your babe. if your creativity takes you to the phone, be creative about it and let her go to the rooftop with how crazy you drove her.

[b]I don't think marriage proposal has any lay down procedure. What matter is whether the parties involved  are in love or not

No be small something O!

The main question is if he proposes the way you have always dreamt of, will you accept the proposal. If your answer is YES, then there is no issue if he proposes through a 'walkee talkee'. But if your answer is no because it is through a walkee talkee, then your answer should always be a no. Cause you may never know, the method he will use may not always be what you have always wanted.

My husband proposed to me over the phone, because he was abroad. I believe that as long as both of you love each other and know that the other is genuine, this should not be a problem.

To be honest I would have preferred a face to face proposal, which he did at a later stage. But of course, I said YES over the telephone,LOL!!!!!!

We have been together for 9 years now and love each other more as each day passes.

Sometimes, we should cut other people some slack. You don’t know why the guy proposed on phone, shame fit dey catch am!!!!!!!

My husband & I live together now, it was just that we were in different continents when he proposed. And we had been dating for 2 years. NOte the word 'was'

The main question to ask is 'why do I feel bad that he proposed on phone'?
a) is it because of what people will say
b) is it becuase of my mind set of how a proposal should be made
C)is it because this is the way it  is done in my family, village etc
