Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by r231(m): 9:57pm On Sep 13, 2010
Why do some men propose to their "girls" in public places? Restaurants, "Parties", sports stadium or cinemas! Why?

Its just too risky, especially when u ve no 100% clue what her answer will be.

Ladies! Would u say "YES" to the Guy just to save him a major public embarrassment?

Why wud I deceive myself by saying 'yes' when i meant to say 'no'? It is only romantic if the gal is ready to say yes.

Dude like you are in my head grin I was thinking the same thing. Very risky I must say very very risky.
I must say some guys have balls.

In response to the topic, no I wouldn't say yes if I don't mean it. To save the guy the embarrassment, I may say something like
"Not here darling" or 'are you kidding" but I wouldn't say yes to save his face.

A man should generally use wisdom and not pop the question in this way unless he's sure.

It's not hard to be sure. If you've been courting a girl and she [b]WANTS [/b]you to pop, the question, you'll know.

@ Poster: No offence but i won't propose to my fiance in a public place and knowing her, she wudnt
like it either. For me, i just think it's aprivate thing and it isnt the public's business to be aware of it.
Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by Nobody: 9:42pm On Sep 14, 2010
@poster
what you wrote is exactly the reason why some men may try the "stadium filled" type of proposal. they think:"she cant possibly turn me down in front of all these people". bold move!

as for other public places like restaurants etc, i guess its difficult to find a deserted romantic public place to pop the question.

apart from silly stadiums proposals, i doubt "being risky" is something that should come in your mind when proposing, unless your ego is more important than a lifetime of happiness. . . . . . . . . if she says no then you move on.

Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by Nobody: 10:01am On Sep 16, 2010
Who proposes to a woman in a Satdium? There is nothing remotely romantic about that. If anything, its embarassing. Infact public proposals are embarassing! Be it in hotels, restaurants e.t.c.

maybe they really just want to show off or maybe it's just a bad idea they thought might be cool!
Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by Omolola1(f): 10:27am On Sep 16, 2010
Public proposals is sweet! but then if i wont say yes, 2 save him d embarasment i wuld just say, Sweets, let's get home

I think it's ridiculous to show off with a public proposal.

It's more romantic if you have the biggest diamond ever and a woman who seeks for attention. However, if she is the type to be private, she will be embarrassed and the last thing you need during a proposal is being an embarrassment to your new fiancee.
Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by iice(f): 5:57pm On Sep 30, 2010
Save him public embarrassment? Is he not old enough to know the risk?
I think some of these public proposals are romantic, some are show offs.
Not for me though. My title to an island is a good way for him to go grin

I will love public proposal, places like Times Square NY on a New Year Eve and u know what that means. and Niagara Falls. But I think is necessary we are sure of our partner before proposal call it secret, public or private.

i wouldnt say it is a show off but i would say it is about showing her how much you love her that you can got down on your knees in the public, i think woman love it

Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by degubi(m): 7:11pm On Sep 30, 2010
To propose to your girl in public means that you must have know that its something she would like, and she has being looking forward to you popping the question. Whether its romantic or show off its really not my business, the important thing is that the question was asked and the appropriate answer was received.
Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by julianH(m): 7:14pm On Sep 30, 2010
@ Poster! You mighty not know this but the truth is that MOST men dont "PROPOSE"
when they are not sure of what the answer will be.

Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by GL(f): 9:21am On Oct 01, 2010
i won't say 'yes' to save him from embarrassment, cos he'd have embarrassed me already by proposing publicly. but then, any guy that i'd be considering saying 'YES' to would know me well enough to not propose in public.

it doesn't matter were u are, all u need is will u marry me, u will just hear a loud yes, with current ratio of man and woman non will say no

Re: Public Proposals- Romantic Or Show Off? by InkedNerd(f): 9:30am On Oct 01, 2010
I don't mind if their done in public or not so it being romantic or show offy mean nothing to me. As long as its not done at someone's wedding then I have no problem with it.
