This thread is supposed to be interesting but the kind people wey flood this platform nowadays won't let the thread be reasonable and fun. Just look at the first few comments.

If it was IG or Twitter now, you would read amazing experiences.

We need to do better especially with the Tribalism bullshit 😒

Well, I would have loved to contribute but I never marry/engage
That's NL for you o

That's Nigerian pidgin. Just like you SA folks mix your comment with those strange phrases.

Meaning:

Why propose! Getting her pregnant is the way to propose. Once she's pregnant, the proposal is set

I didn't do the formal proposal ooo. What is our aim of dating if not getting married? We just continued how discussion from the kind of home we want, the extent of sacrifice we are willing to put in, wedding plans etc.

Re: Married And Engaged Couples: How Did He Propose? by Sluacoast(m):
I'm still a single young man. I'm almost approaching my 30s. But I'd love to share with you guys the most romantic marriage proposal I've ever witnessed.

I never believe this dude did all these, honestly speaking. What if things never worked as planned and she ended up turning down is proposal, Well, let me quickly elaborate before I bored you guys with an unsolicited epistle.🤗

Well, I was returning from a church service on a very sunny day. The church dismisses and everybody were in a hurry to go home. I heard someone Shouting at the top of his voice inside the church premises. He said someone stole is money which he claimed were in dollar from his bag. He immediately made an order that nobody is allowed to leave the premises. Did you believe he went directly to this lady. Telling her that she was the one who stole his money. That lady was terrified. People were just looking at them. This was going on for the past 20 mins. She tried to explain that she knows nothing about any stolen dollar. The dude immediately order her to check her bag. Behold, there was a black small shining bag inside her bag. She started stuttering. How come. People almost started calling her names that she's a thief.

Before you know what's happening. A handsome young man walked into the church premises and told her to open the bag. I don't know what got into her but it seems obviously that she has gotten a clear glance of what this is all about. Immediately she opened it. She found a ring and the dude went down on his kneels to propose. Omo, una go fear clapping and jubilation. On a second thought I felt this whole marriage proposal saga was fixed and rigged. It looks kind of fictional but I believe that was an entertaining scene to witnessed. Thank you

Zigzagman:
Note. 73% of men who are married didn't propose to their wives. It's the wife who wanted the marriage.

So get your head out of lalaland and face the music
You are 100percent correct

Really?! This is why ladies slap them grin

Of all reasons, na "accusation of theft" all of them fit plan. Totally unacceptable!
Some persons witnessed the guy accusing her and didn't wait to watch the drama till the end. Some might record half of the event and post that they caught a fine girl that stole dollars in church.

People hide under anonymity here to derail any meaningful conversation you will have. Again, I suspect there are a lot of kids here.

Yes, you're right about some people leaving earlier and may end of sharing an incomplete stories to other people. But this took another turn.. people were happy for them, Some were taking pictures, chanting, yelling. That was such a fun day you know. I'm thinking about doing mine in such way. But not that theft o 😂😂

Re: Married And Engaged Couples: How Did He Propose? by joelsky: 7:20pm On Aug 12, 2023
Hehehe, mine was church-arranged proposal. I visited The marriage committee and told them of my desire to marry her. The committee fixed a date for the proposals after all the necessary interview and tests were conducted and deemed satisfactory.

Prior to that day, I had never approached the sister for any form of discussion related to love or marriage apart from greetings.

On that day set for the proposal, Nov 11 2017, I waited at the church premises (venue for the proposal) with my head full of the love sentences I had crammed. Immediately she arrived, my God! All the words I crammed disappeared. (I'm a very shy person and practically she was the first lady I was able to speak to/ toast/propose to. The other ladies I have had as friends, I couldn't speak to them, they had to be the one to toast me grin) Chai, I didn't know when I told her 'all the words have disappeared'. grin

It wasn't funny, she just replied it is well (and all became well). I just had to speak by fire by force, new set of words I never imagined came that moment.

I can still remember what I said,
... "God is not the author of confusion. I prayed for a woman who I would love, and who would be a perfect helpmate throughout all life's challenges and who would assist me on my journey to heaven and God revealed you to me. From that moment, there was genuine peace in my heart and I have loved you with all my heart since then. I sincerely love you and want you to be my wife."

She didn't say no. But she said she would go and pray about it. However, with the drama that took place before I spoke to her. I already believed she would later tell me a no. To add fuel to my fears, I was supposed to accompany her to the road for her to take a ride. However, her facial expression showed she wasn't enjoying my company, she walked very fast and left me.

Well, I finally got a yes after 3 (three) months. And we have been happily married for 5 (five) years.
Re: Married And Engaged Couples: How Did He Propose? by nwakibe: 7:23pm On Aug 12, 2023
Up till now, I have not proposed to my wife. Three years in marriage already o. We dated for 3 years. The next thing I told her was that I want to come for introduction and collection of list. A week after, I paid for everything. Traditional marriage and white wedding follows a month after. No time for any drama.
Re: Married And Engaged Couples: How Did He Propose? by Nobody: 7:28pm On Aug 12, 2023
Wait, so you got married to someone you never dated beforehuh
