What To Say When Proposing

Have you thought about what to say when you get down on one knee? You’ve got to prepare your little speech, the size of the rock (if you’re getting one), and figuring out the precise moment to do it! I’ve seen people not say a word and give over some words on paper but I’ve also seen people blabber on for ages and completely screw it up! It’s a delicate balance, like two hot dogs on a butter see-saw.

I’ve done the hard work for you though – just use my tried and tested speech below to get the words down and the ring on!

[Name],

Just like you and everything you do, this has been perfect.

Before I met you this sort of thing would have stressed me out but you make everything glow in my little world.

You make me want to be a better person. I realised I wanted to spend my life with you when…

[we spent that weekend on holiday together]

[you helped me out with that thing I couldn’t do]

[you saved me from the jaws of that alligator]

[other]

This is our special moment, and I want to make so many more with you.

Etc etc etc until you run out of words or she kisses you (or leaves. But hopefully it doesn’t come to that, and if it does, it ain’t my fault!)
Peace!
