What's the difference Kneel or no kneel? just grab her hand and say to her " Baby, I know i have a future, but i can't imagine my future without you. You make me whole. Will you be my wife? " Ones she say yes, draw her close to you and get you some sugar Cool  Tongue It doesn't matter how you do it. just do it properly!!



Let your words do the whole kneeling and prostrate thing !

go fix me a sandwich, now that's chivalry for your ass. geez, that lady has been reading way too many fiction novels.  


On the contrary sir, I'm as realistic as they come.
Virtues like honour, respect and love hold no importance any more yet people wonder whats wrong with the world today.

before i get attacked i know women do have their own faults.
but Nigerian men have killed idea of romance (they probably never had it, but thats a discussion for another day thread)
Nigerian women have historically been treated appallingly and have hardened them to the monsters they've become.
And yet there are the precious few who still hold  these virtues, yet they get punished by the cynicism of the Nigerian man.

the poor girl (whom this thread is about, incase y'all havent noticed) probably grew up reading and watching fairy tales. she gets the idea of virtue and honour, but the poor misguided thing didnt understand how it works. and a society where it is virtually non-existant, how was she to know?


boy i really am bored!

i just strongly disagree with your statement,
see i'm one of those breed of women who would never kneel for anything, i deserve to be treated like a queen and i wont settle for anything less.
no hard feelings?

@chinda
i guess u don't seem to understand the mindset of the nigerian gals now, to them its all about the money.
i mean y would a lady  feel bad that her guy proposed to her without kneeling??
 i mean if she truely loves him as she claims, then kneeling should not be a problem, what she should be concerned about is their life together.
guys go get the moonneeyy men and u'll see them kneeling before u asking for your hand in marriage(directly or indirectly)
@hr hotnss
for your mind Grin Grin, if truely u deserve tobe treated like a queen ,,the get your mind straight and forget all these kneeling

@Guys

And please make sure you have that passion in your eyes when you do propose. Teary up a bit if you must. If she sings the tune of your heart, you better do it properly so you don't have to re-do it. The first proposal last a lifetime.  Cool Don't clown it up by acting like a fool. It's one of the few most important times of your life.  Wink

@Chinda

I no be professor oh. I just learned a lot from Big brothers that have proposed to women. I have heard brothers tell tales of "scene proposals". If you know what i mean. I have heard tales from a slap to a kiss to "straight to the bedroom after a proposal"  Grin It's just important to do it right when you finally find that one that sings to your heart. Guys kill the moments with that "Toxic" called pride or ego. Acting like it's a favor.

In an era where guys no longer chase girls instead its the other way round nai one girl dey use her own bobo take do shakara. She go grow biabia. I agree with ma fellow nairalanders she never get ready to marry or maybe she get one bobo 4 corner wey dey decieve am. abi what else?  Such supposed to be taken to meet a very good advicer who can advice her because the way I dey see things the girl go be 'PENTAGON' (Pe Ni Ta Gan - A yoruba word)

@slimzypink

I feel sorry for you bro'. What type of mentality is that? We are not talking about the ratio of men to women. We are talking about that very special person that makes life worth living. Someone that brighten your day despite the rigors of life.  Smiley

You keep that thought, and i guarantee you that it will cost you a good woman. Love knows no pride or ego. Ego is like toxic in the garden of love. Get that into your head bro. Tongue Tongue

My close pal took his fiancee out last weekend and proposed to her if she could marry him.
But the girl refused citing disrespect, that my guy is supposed to go down on his knees to propose.

I want to ask you guys whether it is compulsory that a guy must get down on his knees before proposing.

Disrespect? Oh come on!

As long as he didn't say "I've finally decided to marry you" or "God has sent me to better your life" Yeah, seriously! , I give the proposal 2 thumbs up and NO it's not compulsory to kneel down.  NiceYes. Compulsoryabsolutely not.

@Chinda3

Africans are very romantic. Don't believe the word of mouth. Most African men say a lot of thing they don't mean. I have also realize that men that comes from a polygamous household seems to take women as " Dime a dozen". But most African men are sweet and romantic and protect their woman. Don't listen to this guys, it's just "Shakara" them dey do. I bet you that when they see a woman they truly love, them go dey shake like crayfish. And when that woman doesn't return the affection they begin to stalk her.
