Proposal Anyone?

Proposal Anyone?

Getting down to the wire and don’t know how to pop the question?

Ask a day early. Use Valentines Day for basking in the glow.

Try and make it a real declarative question. “What do you think about getting married?” That’s theoretical. Go for the gusto.

You may have to ask twice. Proposals can stun on the first try.

If you talk too fast, your Intended may ask you to repeat yourself.

Weather is weather. Don’t sweat it.

Got the ring but lost the box? Any jewelry store will have one.

Is your intended in a bad mood? Hand over the ring or pop the question and watch that change pronto.

Got kids? Get one of them to do it.

Got pets? What are collars for anyway?

If you Intended says, “Yes” before you finish talking, it still counts.

San Francisco Foggy Day

And so it came to pass that Edward planned his proposal.  He chose February as the month and the scene of their meeting, San Francisco, as the place.  He contrived an elaborate fake party with his friend John that even included a fake email invitation.  Edward did not do so well with the weather, however, which was cold and wet when they arrived.    He had decided he didn’t want to propose on Valentines Day, so Friday the 13th it was.  When the rain slowed, they took the trolley to the Marina for a walk along the water, just short of the Golden Gate Bridge, a beautiful beach.  It started drizzling, and there was no one around.  Victoria said she thought it was romantic.
