It always best to show highest etiquette and manners, when puling out the engagement ring on a **** love routine. You only got once chance to win her over. Don't let us down, bud.

EDIT: You can also just tie it to your ****, then tell her she has to use her mouth to get it off, or else you prenupt the whole relationship.

Here's the best advice I can give:

Don't do it.


If I could put everything in a typical marriage into a video, you would see why you should not.


Just keep getting the milk while the cow is free, and if the cow wants to be more like a real cow, then you dump the cow and get another one. Cows are evil, you see, and once the cow is "bought", it then knows it can start milking you and there's nothing you can do about it without lawyers and paperwork and losing almost everything and becoming an economic mule for at least 22 years (if you and the cow had calves).

DON'T do it. That's all. The laws and courts stack the deck against you. You give up more than a single status.




When life hands you cows, make hamburger.

Dude. Does your gf play EVE? Cause if yes, this is an awesome strategy but you want to make sure she doesn't see this thread.

If no... this is probably a bad idea.

If you want to make a big deal of proposing, center it around something that *she* is into, not one of your hobbies.

And ya know - there is absolutely nothing wrong with just taking her on a nice date and asking. It doesn't have to be a stunt, and it doesn't have to involve other people (and doing so can come accross as a bit weird and pressure-y). If she's into you enough to marry you, you could probably propose at Burger King and she's still say yes, but nice restaurants/places associating with something she's into/a quiet walk just the two of you in a scenic location etc is all you need to make it special.


I support Kittanha's suggestion.

Reality is unkind. Selfishness is the root of all evil and is the root of all failed marriages.

Now I will say this... if you buy the cow, breed the cow, and benefit from the cow take responsibility for your own choices. Buck up... or as they say in EvE HTFU. That is life. You made your bed, now lay in it.

Know what you are getting yourself into. Understand what marriage is and what it requires before you jump into it like a dumb a$$.

Every single marriage isn't bad, that is a negative load of BS that simply isn't true.

I would say that every single marriage isn't easy, nor will it ever be. Put two selfish people in the same house, you're going to to have problems. But if you choose to love one another you can work through it. A successful marriage is one that lasts and is filled with love, not one that is problem free.

How 'bout a engagement nose ring? Cubic zirconia (she'll never realize...) and stuff it into a hot dog Big smile And yyou can make a video of HER finding it. Provided... she doesn't have braces... and you have met her, right? not an internet gf, cuz then you might need two hot dogs (they're all fatter than they lead you to believe). On second thought... braces a plus!

I'm in it for the money

Except that time she got her braces caught on my nipple ring... I'm so happy we managed to get them pried off because that would be a trip to the ER that would be conversation worthy to everyone there

FYI also gotten them caught on her nipple ring, tongue piercing, earring (that one's probably the weirdest one), and hair. Not all the same girl though

Maybe if you spent less time playing the computer and asking a gaming community how to propose to the person you have been with and loved, when none of them have ever met her...well....lol.

Seriously tho, think before you ask.

The funny part is that he wasn't asking how to do anything which seems to have gone over the majorities heads in here. He was asking us to make a short video where we, a bunch of sweaty basement dwelling neckbeards with epic manboobs, say a little proposal phrase and send it to him, to which he would compile them into one movie.

I don't have moobies. If I did, and were flexible enough, I'd never leave my room.

Does the OP still want video of me screaming "Don't do it!!" I could imitate the tunnel scene from the Blues Brothers (ah, Princess Lea with an M-16 - one of films better moments).

I third this -- and I'd like to add a bit of my own 'wisdom' (so written because...well, YMMV on whether or not what I say is 'wise'. :) )

If you want it to be meaningful, don't do it this way. We don't know your girlfriend, and we haven't 'been there' for the Important Moments of the last four years, so it's not going to have the impact you're aiming for (trust me, it won't). This is a moment to be shared between you and her, not you and her 'and a bunch of random Internet people'.

Here's my suggestion:

Take all the photos, and letters, and small things that she may have given you or that you may have exchanged, and make a scrapbook. Start in chronological order, from as close to the first day you met as possible, and make a record of your time together. Basically, make it evident that you've put the same amount of effort into this as you have into the relationship as a whole.

On the last two pages, write your proposal. Draw big, write boldly, and take time to make it special.

Sit her down after a nice dinner, or a movie, and show her the book. Walk together through all of those memories, first page to last, and take your time. When you get to the last page, not only will you have relived the most cherished moments you've spent together, she'll know just how much those moments meant to you.

Good luck!
