So me and this guy have been dating since 2020. I decided I don't want to be wasting my time and I want to be faithful to someone.

He said we can tie the knot. The problem is, he said he is not going to kneel down to propose to me. I said "fine, it's ok " but deep down in me, I want him to kneel down and propose to me.

It doesn't make sense now! how will we get married without something to Usher the request to be with me forever.

Please what can I do to make him propose to me? Even if he will not kneel down on his two knees, please what can I do to make him kneel and propose to me

It's not necessary to kneel... If he's gonna propose, my boyfriend has to do something insanely romantic! grin

I have a problem with the fact that he told you that he's not going to kneel... He's attached a meaning to the act... And it's weird...

There was no need to voice it out... He could have just proposed without kneeling...

He's probably proud... He doesn't mind that you're gonna bear his last name and so would your children!

He's probably not a fan of 'kneel to propose.'

Well, you could try stand on a table when he's about to pop the question since he insists kneeling to propose is not his thing,

It like when you want to give him food after the stress of cooking, he say he wont eat the food until you kneel and and give him the food.
Ask yourself haba does it make sense?!.
Watching nollywood bollywood and hollywood movies have made you attach a pattern of what to expect from men.
In irony Nollywood movies of men kneeling to propose to women is trying to make men submissive picturing it in a good way.
why kneel and propose to a gurl when you can Bleep her brain out to cloud nine and get her pregnant, if she no go beg or force or rope you to marry her make i know wetin cause am.

He's probably principled. I'm pretty sure your grandpa didn't kneel to propose to your grandma. He probably stood with her under a tree, held her hands and popped the question. And i'm sure they had a great marriage

Why do you want him to kneel down?
For the gram? To feel desired?

In this thing, try to get a bargain.

Don't be ashamed to use your feminity on him

I agree with the not kneeling down. There is no reason to kneel down. However, he does need to put some effort to make you feel special.

Who started this kneeling down of a thing? the person must be very stupid and u that is engrossed with this idea,don't worry continue.

Marriage will teach all of u kindergarten women a lesson.

May be u guys think is nollywood.

U want him to kneel for u as if that is how your dad knelt for your mum.

U guys should continue with this fakism and time only will reveal.

First off, it is very important that you know what you want. You said you didn't have a problem with it so why looking for a why to conspire to force the young man against his will?

Secondly, the situation under which he said that is important because it would give you an idea of the thinking or reasoning behind saying that. Better still, you can bring up the topic casually and ask him why he doesn't want to. If he can clearly explain why he doesn't want to kneel without he/she said, then you got a man and should be happy about that.

Thirdly, If he cannot explain clearly, it may be a peer influence thing and may not be from his heart.

Either way, it is important to note that kneeling to propose is not African but influenced by western systems and philosophies. More and more men are coming to that realization and refusing to do it even in the western world.

What you can do is try to convince him to do it because of how it would make you feel or what it would mean to you(showing how much he loves you). If you are able to convince him, be grateful and if not, you need to be truthful to yourself as regards if a gesture is more important to you than him/your relationship.

My father did not go on a knee to propose to my mother and the chances of me kneeling to propose my wife is less than 10% at the moment.

The more we as Africans discard potentially harmful influences of social engineering from the west, the better for us all.

Just be urself. Don't be too desperate. Although, the guy is a SIMP. He shouldn't have told u that. I.e He kneeling or not kneeling to propose to u. He should have kept it to himself until when he wants to. It should a Surprised proposal(not necessarily kneeling). I would advice that u remain open to relationship. Do not put all ur eggs in one basket.

You want him to kneel so you can slap him abi

With the way girls slap guys this days after they propose, ur guys action is understandable
