Propose or not?

But you have to do the asking

I totally agree with you ladies!!! It is ok for other women, but not me!

BTW I wanted to bump this since Joan (Girlfriends) asked ol' boy to marry her.

What Dang I need to catch up on Girlfriends. Hmmmm, I could never ask a man to marry me. I'm just imagining a couple of years after the marriage when a good disagreement happens and he says "well I did not ask you to marry me, you asked me," or "I didn't really want to get married in the first place." Ladies, I have heard men say this. I know someone close to me whose husband threw those words right at her. I know that I could not handle those words being thrown at me so to keep my sanity, I would never ask a man to marry me. Not to mention the fact that in my opinion if a man wants to get married, he will ask. Now that my .7 cents worth.

I feel like if the moment is right, the female should ask the male. What difference does it make? The end result is you marry each other. Right?

I've always wondered what men think about this, so I asked a few and they were like as long as the woman was the right one, why not? I still wouldnt do it though. And we all know Joan is desperate. Hee hee hee...

In an ideal world maybe but men mature slower than women and so our "right time" may not necessarily coincide with their "right time" and if you ask that question outside of the "right season" your response could be based upon fear (fear of losing you, fear of hurting you).
