If you have the man of your dreams...and he wants to marry you but isnt ready to go on his knees, you'll say "no" just because of that?

I put it to you that that's just one of the lies ladies like to tell themselves and others.

'I can never take this!' 'I can never do that!'

All lies!

Thank u Jaré.. ladies hardly dont know what dey want, wat really matters, wat does not matter...too much self-deceit, fantasies in places they shouldn't belong, crave for norms that is void of logic and meaning.#sighs!

kristina1:

evegran:
I dunno what you're talking about. When i said 'yes' to my boyfriend, his bank details was the last thing on my mind. The first thing, was his personality...that for me covers everything else.

Sounds to me like another lie

Damn! All this long list? ...you only need three things...

1. Make plenty money
2. Make more money
3. Make a very large amount of money

14. Also marry someone that can make good love to you in bed, that one too is important

badoolee:

RAKITIC:
bros na too much of hollywood dey worry them , dats y they take irrelevant tins personal. If i hear say i kneel down for anybody

I swear..we need to ban telemundo and the rest, so many cultural norms that are not worth the hype and fight.

Zeemoor:
Una too dey worry


If you feel kneeling to ask for her hand in marriage is crazy or old fashioned, toss her the ring and ask her to marry you
Lobatan

Your head dey there jaré

00kris88:

kristina1:
But thatz d way itz supposed to be.

Says who?

Chiadanin:
It is tradition just like most things humans practice. Its what the act stands for that matters. Thus it is a state of mind.

It is just a symbol; an act of humility, sighn of service and commitment, trust and loyalty.

I think it is an endearing act.

I got one for u then maamin; would u expect the lady to wear the engagement ring then? If so, wots the point in that? And ru going to wear engagement ring too? How come men aarent expected to wear one. Why r wedding gowns white? We could go on.........

On a lighter note;

Ur definitely going down on your knees IF you want me to wear that ring.

Very funny my love..some things are just overrated this days kneeling down during proposal, engagement ring, white gowns..an so on. But I dont think is worth it.

On a lighter note

I will propose to you on the moon..will I still need to go on my knees there too?

kristina1:
You mean if you want to propose to a gal,you wont go on ur knees?

Why should I go on my knee to beg a girl to wear over a million naira diamond ring I bought with my money just for her to marry me..in a marriage in which both of us are going to be beneficiaries...in fact she is going to benefit more sef. that is crazy Jaré.

Richiy:
Lol. No mind me o. I hugged one guy that smelt like d.ope, it probably transfered to me.

Am not aware that people of the old did kneel to ask a girl for marriage o. What I know is that you go to the girls parents and make your intention known.

Yes some do..but it has become a norm that some ladies be like 'he must kneel down O if he is giving me the ring'..that is too extreme.

Me..kneeling in front of a mortal, what happens to the god in me? ..the only Reasons for me to be kneeling in front of a girl is that am begging to use her head for rituals.

temitemi1:
I kneeled when I did mine

...

Richiy:
Okay.
Being that romantic when asking a lady to marry you is a borrowed culture. So you just do what you saw others do.

I see that u edited ur initial post.. , I was about..shouting

I dont buy that borrowed culture thingy..coz they do it even in the old and native traditions or cultural groups that have not come in contact with the outside worlds.

I have observed that most marriage proposals involves the guy kneeling and asking the lady to marry him..

Is it a way of pleading or What significance does this got to do with romance?

Could this be normal?

Ligxy:
Lol. List so on point, but I need to state that it's not only ladies that possess this mentality, 99.9% of men have same mentality too. Tell your boyfriend you met a stranger in the bus and he paid your transport fare or he paid for your shopping, first thing he'll say is ''I'm sure you gave him your number, mtcheeww, well done!'' Is that not true?

Why will u allow him pay in the first place, na your boyfriend?

tyconcepts:
The war of sexes is never ending and never won.

Individual difference matters a lot.

I have paid bills for a guy.

Be be first to make sensual approach.

I have given surprise gifts even when its not his birthday.

Initiated dinner and footed the bills.

Represented a guy perfectly business wise in his absence.

I have been the first to say sorry even when I wasn't wrong.

The list is endless.....Its my life ......Its my individual difference....It gives me kicks....It creates the change I want to see.....Its thrilling.


The question is who is the guy??

My answer is he is worthy.

Ok that means you are crushing on a guy that is worthy which you probably don't want to slip away from you. (i might be wrong) but That's cool anyway.

Now can most naija girls see themselves being worthy too..without pride making them think 'a potential mugu' or 'stucker for love'?

owolawitola:
My dear, you're the one that needs slap.

Lol.. , so I guess you will go with the other guys line and stop complaining.
