ok this is the deal. imma ask my beautiful girlfriend to marry me. i have it planned to go to atlantic city (casino's for those who dont know) and we are having dinner there also. not sure if dinner will be first or last thing we are gonna do. but this fri is when we are going and i have the ring and imma ask her that day. so i need some help from the romantic people on how i should do it. i know it should be from what i think i should do and from my heart but i need to know what you guys or girls would do. thanks!

What sort of person is she? And what are you comfortable with?

If she is really shy, something large and public is likely to embarrass her, whereas if she's outgoing, she will probably be flattered.

Here is one suggestion though - do something original and unique to the two of you.

He said romantic people, Oz

He already met her and (assumedly) bedded her, I think your advice is no longer needed, Oz.

Do something utterly outrageous and unexpected.

Oz · #6 01-04-2005, 08:58 PM

I stand corrected.

Nah. You were right.

Make sure the scene is suited to your girlfriend's personality. And definitely make dinner the last event of the night

Make it sweet and romantic...Personally I wouldnt want it in like a crowded place...In public is ok...but not crowded. Make it meaningful, and say something sweet. Depending on the weather, I hear its nice over there...try taking her on the beach. The boardwalk is dead this time of year but I'm sure you can find somewhere nice to do it. I dunno....I don't know how I want to be asked, but it doesnt matter as long as its from the heart.

Hmm...my idea. Book the Honeymoon Suite of one of the best hotels in your city for the night. At the end of the evening - desert for example, get the kitchen to organise something special ahead of time. Maybe bring out the ring on her desert?

Anyway, after she gets over the shock and emotion and calms down (2 hours min. - go somewhere and talk), tell her what you have booked.

Whatever happened to the good old fashioned "Babe, I'd be honoured if you cooked my dinner and cleaned up after me for eternity!"

No wonder the sheep in NZ have it so sweet.

Romantic restaurant in the city, walk around for a nice place for coffee (arranged) and pop the big question. Then back to 5 star hotel...

AC isnt like that...the casino's are real nice and the boardwalk can be interesting, but not in January... I'm sure you'll come up with something good.

Put the ring somewhere like a camera case and ask her to get the camera out, shell open it and the ring is sitting there then say something sweet like, hey if i didnt love you would i have spent thousands on a freakin ring?

Or toss her the ring and say, "Hey woman! you gonna marry me or should i go pawn this and gamble some more?"
