How to Propose Successfully
1. Keep it simple: Do not make your suggestion too detailed. If the proposal process is too complicated, there is a good chance that something will go wrong. Make it a secret moment, between the two of you. You can save a big splash of declaration of engagement. If you guess the wrong thing about your partner's intentions, you will be disappointed, but at least you will not be embarrassed in public.
2. Talk about it in advance, in the usual way: Do not make a suggestion to a partner who may not be ready to decide. Instead, ask questions a few weeks ago, such as "What do you think about marriage?" "If we were married would you want children?" and "Do you think we can make the marriage work one day?" The straightforward answers to these questions are your green light that you can ask.

3. Ask sincerely. Tell a little story about how you found out you wanted to share your life with your partner, then add "So, are you going to marry me?" in the end.
4. It is normal to have an engagement ring, but it is not your choice — your partner may have something completely different in mind. Prior to the suggestion, during the "pre-talk" stage, stop at jewelry stores if you are in a mall and ask "Which engagement ring do you like?" This way, you can find out what he likes. Don’t overspend, however, no matter what the jewelry retailer says about a few months ’salary. Contact someone you respect, if you are not sure what you can afford. It’s also okay to choose a ring and buy it together, but save a real suggestion to get amazing.

5. For a real suggestion, find a setting that has meaning for you as a couple. If you have a good time at the zoo, take your goal there to lift. If you both love rock climbing, climb your favorite rock, and when you get to the top, answer the question. If you have a favorite restaurant or bowling alley, that is the place you can use. The park of the place where you run, or always go to talk is beautiful. It is far more important that the place be meaningful, memorable and private, rather than detailed or expensive.
6. If you plan it well, you should be rewarded with a "yes" and a great kiss. If that happens, you can take her out for a delicious dinner or go out and tell her parents.
