I’m trying to come up with a romantic date for a date, hopefully at night or somewhere thats not heavely populated so we don’t have to deal with the whole all eyes on me thing. I’m on a 70 dollar budget but i want it to be nice not like the same movie and dinner thing. If anyone knows any good locations they would be helpful too. We’re only 16 so we can’t go out of state or anything. She already has a massive stuffed animal and jewlery collection so i don’t really want to get her anymore unless there creative.
Romantic teen date ideas?

Just to answer brp_13’s question, teen dating has nothing to do with marriage and divorce, i just thought it would be a good idea to ask married people who have been through these things and might have some pointers on what to and not to do, and divorced people who have also been through these things plus hopefully if you have kids you would put a idea that wou would like them or would have liked them to do.

My significant other and I have been discussing marriage for a year now and have been ring shopping a few times. I want something basic, he wants to spend a lot- I’m hoping for a compromise on that.

However, I know he’s most nervous about the proposal. A few of my friends had very elaborate planned proposals and, probably mostly my fault due to telling their stories several times, he thinks he has to live up to it. I told him many times it doesn’t have to be fancy, just thoughtful…. I bought a house last fall and want to get a doggie but haven’t yet- if he just got me a dog with a ring tied on the collar, that would be perfect to me.

Anyone have any stories about super thoughtful or unique proposals? Or any ideas for one? Anything works- if I get some good answers I’ll foward the link for the question to him to read them

Thanks!

Ok for future reference, I was wondering what are some good ideas for a marriage proposal? Looking for something modest but nothing cheap and cheesy either. I’m just trying to be a little creative, your help is greatly appreiciated in this matter

I’m looking for a clever/funny or unusual way to yes to a marriage proposal. Any ideas?

My boyfriend and I have been together for a few years now and have been talking about getting married for a long time. I’ve brought up the topic of marriage several times, maybe too many times, but I honestly think it’s time to really get serious about it. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can give him a not-so-obvious hint as to get him on the ball about asking me to be his wife? I know he doesn’t have the money to buy me a ring right now and I don’t need one, however, he said he wants to do it right by giving me a ring I deserve and I don’t know if I can wait. I love him entirely and want to begin planning to be his wife even if I have to wait a year or two for the wedding. Just a proposal would be nice to know he’s on the same page as me. Please, if anyone has any ideas on how to drop a hint or two, let me know. I’d really appreciate it.
He is expected to start his career this upcoming summer and will be leaving for a really long traingin period that will take several months. After the training, he may have to leave staright for work in another state immediately, we’re not sure yet. I’m supposed to move in with him when I graduate next May. I would just like to have an idea about when we could start planning on getting married when things settle down. Right now, I just don’t have substantial answers. It would be nice to be engaged, knowing we are on the track to be married, even if the wedding has to wait for a couple of years.

My best guy friend is asking his girlfriend to marry him next week and told me how he plans to ask her.
His girlfriend’s family has weekly game nights and he plans to suggest the Game of Life. When he lands on the marriage space (there is a stop sign there) he is going to get down on one knee and propose.

I think this is SO cute and original!
What do you all think?!

Okay I’m going to ask my girlfriend to marry me. She indicated to me that a marriage proposal should be romantic. I agree and I want to make this memorable for both of us. Unfortunantely we’re not in the position to take any trips or vacations so that idea is out. Also I know she doesn’t want to be asked in a restaurant so that idea is out as well. I need your help! Tell me what a women finds romantic….I have some ideas but I need more!

Hello all!
I’m hoping this dynamic community can help me with a marriage proposal. I’m 26 years old and am planning on proposing marriage to my 24-year-old girlfriend sometime soon. We have been dating for 5 years now, and everything is ready. I bought the ring and everything.

But I’m having a hard time coming up with a creative, yet meaningful, marriage proposal. I dont want to just take her out to dinner and get down on one knee - I want it to be more special and meaningful to her than that. She doesnt have that many outside hobbies, so I cant play off of that.

The one thing we do have in common is where we met - at college (which is 500 miles away from where we live now). But I cant think of anything creative to do there….

Any ideas for this helpless guy? Thank you in advance!

So, I’m a Martial Artist, and I have a lady whom I will be proposing too, finally, after 3 years of knowing…

She has, jokingly, said before; she demands that I do all sorts of kicks, and flips, and rolls; landing in front of her, with hand out and ring in hand, as my proposal necessities. I laugh, she laughs…

But I have gotten to the point, where I think I might actually try to do that. Only problem is, I’ve got nowhere that I could do that in person with her there, without it being very suspicious…

My plan is to have gloves, my gi (the martial arts uniform), and foot guards on; and perform my own, personally created, form. The gloves will have something on them that says "The slayers" and the foot guards will have "The breakers" on them.

My goal is to use my feet to take out two people wearing shirts that say "Boundaries" and "Barriers", using "The Breakers". And the last opponent will be wearing a shirt that says "Heart", and I have to use my "Slayers" to attack him. All the while, wearing my gi that says "Love" on it.

So I will be using our Love to break boundaries and barriers, in order to slay her heart…

Cheesy!!!

I planned to get all of this on video, then play it while we’re over at a friends house, with lots of people around. Then, the last movement of the form is a forward roll onto one knee. Then I will say "Now that I have used our love to break down the boundaries and barriers of life, and slayed your heart, will you marry me?"

I also plan on having the video highlight old movies of us together, and pictures, playing to "our" song before the form is shown.

Anyone have any other suggestions? Sound good?
We’re a little on the cooky side I guess. I have said to her plenty of times, I slay her heart daily. She seems to like it…

I doubt she would say no, at this point. She has already talked about marriage, asked for a ring, somewhat jokingly, and told me which rings she likes…

Eric H - I like your idea, but I doubt the club would ever let me do it. I would have to sign all sorts of papers, and go to all sorts of drastic measures to get it put together. They would probably just tell me to go away, unless I was going to pay them a crap load of money…

Perhaps some bozo at the club would try and step in. Who knows… I think there’s one too many variables in that one. I do like it a lot though… I could definitely envision it. Perhaps some other time down the road, I will have better means to do that route… lol…
Holly Jo - Thanks for the reassurance that it’s not too cheesy… lol…

I don’t really care about how people think she will react. I am here to see if there’s that strange answer that has a point to it, that I had not thought of already. Checking with strangers, friends, fools, and sages; to see if I’ve got my ground covered.

Thanks for the input!
Butt sniffer joey… Please go somewhere else to be a grammar coach. Perhaps some foreigners, who actually give a $hit that they aren’t spelling and using grammar 100% correctly, will wish to have you around to help them.

If you don’t have anything nice to say, then just shut up…

Okay, I’m 16, so I’m not going to be getting married anytime soon. But I read this article on the best and worst marriage proposals of this year. I personally want a memorable and special proposal, so I thought of this. Tell me what you think of it.

I would make a CD with all of our favorite songs. I would tell her to go to a certain song that actually has a recording of me telling her about the relationship like, "We’ve gone through the good and the bad, we’ve laughed and cried together" and whatever else. Then it says, "… so I ask you…" then I take out a ring and ask, "Will you marry me?" and the next song is her personal favorite song.

What do you think of it? Too cheesy? Good? Bad? It was just something I thought of when I was on a bike ride earlier today.
Oh yeah, and no one use it! I copyrighted it… after I finished my bike ride… maybe… lol, jk. But seriously.

I have been thinking about popping the big question to my girlfriend.

Any marriage proposal ideas?

To make it cute, sweet, funny or just memorable…

I am looking for a unique marriage prospoal idea? I’ve read all sorts of ideas online but none seem to be that great or unique or romantic. List me your ideas!!!
