Dear Advisor; Should She Propose?
Dear Advisor,
My boyfriend and I just celebrated three years together. I want to ask him to marry me. My friends say I shouldn’t. They say that only desperate women propose marriage. Are they right?
Nervous in New Jersey
Dear Nervous,
Your friends are not right. Today it is fine for a woman to propose to a man. In 2003, the Korbel Champagne Company conducted a survey. They asked, " Should women ask men to marry them?" Sixty-seven percent of Americans said yes. The survey asked women, "Would you propose to a man?" Almost 50 percent of the women said they would. They also asked men, "Would you accept a woman’s proposal?" Almost 80 percent said yes. Thirty-one percent of women know a woman who has proposed to a man.
Experts generally agree. Dr. Linda 0’ Connor has a radio talk show about love and marriage. 0’ Connor says that women who propose are usually educated and self-confident. In addition, their boyfriends usually like strong women. However, advice columnist Susan Fine argues that even women with a lot of self-confidence may need some help with their proposals. Here is her advice. First, the proposal should not be a surprise. The relationship should be serious. She also advises women to do two more things. They should write out the proposal and practice it before they ask for their boyfriends’ hands in marriage.
How would Susan Fine answer you? If you and your boyfriend are happy, do not pay attention to your friends. And don’t invite them to the wedding.
