Are you wondering whether it’s okay to be the
first one to propose marriage? In fact, in most relationships a woman initiates
marriage talk. There are many men who are afraid of marriage, since it involves
lots of practical aspects along with planning (both socially and financially),
so they will bide their time even if they’re committed to the relationship.
Check out a few ways to ask your boyfriend to marry you.
1. Ask him why he hasn’t asked you to marry him yet
First of all, ask your boyfriend why he hasn’t
asked you to marry him yet. Make sure you get a specific answer to your
question, since it may clarify his standpoint. If your guy tells you that he
hasn’t considered possibility of marriage, then ask him if he’s committed to
the relationship.
2. Don’t be so dramatic about it
Really, girls, the last thing you want to do is
to go on your knees and ask him to marry you in a public place. It’s quite
normal for men to do such things, but coming from you it will make your
boyfriend go as red as a beet. It’s better to discuss this topic when you’re in
a private place.
3. Don’t be too needy
If you display any form of neediness or
dependence, your guy may find it repulsive subconsciously. The guys don’t like
the needy and clingy girls. And you should stop the needy behavior before it
ends your relationship. So try to play hard to get, but make sure you don’t
overdo it.
4. Be playful when you ask him about marriage
It’s important to keep a playful attitude when
you ask your boyfriend about marriage, even if you’re nervous or edgy about his
reaction. You can say something like ‘When do I get to call you my husband?’ or
‘So Mr. (name) when are you planning to marry me?’
5. Let him know that you want to get married
Many men start thinking seriously about marriage
when they see that the woman has made up her mind about it. So go ahead and
tell your guy that you want to get married and settle down. Who knows? Maybe
6. Don’t pressure him too much
Ladies, if you want your boyfriend to run, keep
pressuring him to get married. If you put emotional pressure on your man it
might backfire later when he’ll blame you for problems in the marriage. Try to
put some indirect pressure by telling him that your parents are looking forward
to see you married as soon as possible.
7. Talk about the practical aspects
There are a few practical aspects of marriage to
be considered that you may not have thought of. There are social issues, such
as meeting with the families, and financial issues such as getting a house, a
car and other necessities. Maybe your boyfriend worries about one of these
issues. Don’t ignore the practical aspects of marriage, discuss it and help him
feel comfortable about it.

you? How are you going to do this? Share your thoughts, please!
