Should A Guy Kneel Down When Proposing Marriage? by BlackTy(m): 12:34pm On Apr 12, 2008
Hey Guys, This is the topic was discussed before it was discontinued due to a fight.

What do you guys think?? Should a guy kneel down when he is proposing marriage to his woman ??

Personally, i think a guy should be polite and do it right. If it takes kneeling down, then go ahead. A man should have known what his woman want ahead of time, that's what courtship is for !! cool

Like i said before, make sure you do it right because it's one of the few most important times of ones life. Grab your woman's hand, look straight into her eyes and softly say to her "Hey sweetheart, Ever since i have met you i have met happiness. You have brought so much sunshine into my life, my joy has knew no boundary and i just wish we can make this friendship a lifetime, will you be my wife"?? Ones she says yess, lift her up in your arms and get a taste of sugar.

This is only if you mean and not for fools who thinks proposing is a game. NOT FOR CLOWNS !! grin tongue

Not required. . .
If he wants to, good for him and her
If he doesn't want to, good for him but maybe not her

It all boils down to how much he wants to please her.

Why kneel down, are you begging her to marry you? Marriage should be a mutual agreement, she supposed to be begging you to marry her too. If she don't have any feeling for marriage with you, then she is not the woman. Unless, if there is an extraordinary reason why she did nt want to commit, like religion then you can beg. Apart from that a man should be a man and not a weak vessel.

It's romantic to kneel.
All these macho men around here sef.
mine didn't kneel and I still said yes lipsrsealed
It's oyibo custom.

Our typical  ancient African culture back in the days,the woman is not even told she's getting married.
Everything is done behind her back.
They tell the little 10 or 12 year old she's going to help an older woman take care of chores only for her to arrive as a second wife and at night,a 45 year old man wants to kill her with his blokoss.

I t depends on the couple,

The man should know what will "trip" his woman. Some women could not care less as long as the man proposes  wink

Others want the whole nine yards, flowers, romantic avenues, soft music, horse and carriage, etc etc.

So if the guy is with a woman who demands romantic experiences, then kneeling is definitely expected.
Otherwise, guys do what you think is required to get the woman you love to marry you.  cool

, Why does a guy need to beg for proposal,
 

why do some people kneel to greet their elders?
is it because they're begging them to accept a  common good morning ?
No
It's respectful
It's showing honor
that's all the kneeling is.
You men should stop making a mountain off a molehill.

true talk BlackTy,  but not an obligation that a guy must be on bended knees when proposing just to show how he loves her,
Re: Should A Guy Kneel Down When Proposing Marriage? by goodiyke(m): 8:05pm On Apr 12, 2008
well i don't think it is important but it should be romantic in nature.plz don't reject a guy because of not kneeling down.u might be missing ur luck.

Any woman expecting me to kneel before she says YES will have to wait for ETERNITY.

its not a must dat he should kneel down wen proposing ,some people say its romantic,i agree but sometimes words can be more romantic than actions,there is a way he'll pop d question wt very romantic words,dat believe me kneeling will not be as romantic as d words,d words believe me,will be far more romantic dan kneeling, trust me wink wink
