Hi,
I have a couple months left before I start shopping for an e-ring and I'm trying to think of what to do propposal-wise, but this time I want something heartfelt and simple. By "this time" I mean I've been through this once before with an ex when I was in my young 20's. Now that I'm in my 30's and not proposing to somebody who's in the "magical princess wedding" mindset, I feel that a "big event" proposal isn't what I'm looking for. Dressing up like a knight at Medieval Times or having "Will you marry me?" spelled out on a billboard isn't doing it for me. I want to do the asking, in classic fashion with me on one knee and whipping out the ring box as I'm asking, and I'm not looking to make a spectacle of it. That said, I want to make it a little more memorable than doing it in the middle of her living room without any romance to go with it. Having some real-life stories of such simple proposals would be nice to read and help me come up with an idea or two of my own, as well as point out what really stick out in a lady's mind when it comes to these things.
Thanks a lot!
