Is it weird to propose marriage to my boyfriend?

If he's a real romantic he might object - my fiance would have been somewhat disappointed if I had proposed ( I was giving him a chance first, if he hadn't proposed when he did I would have). Otherwise I say go for it. However I'd say that you ought to skip the ring. If you really want one, the two of you should go out afterwards to get one (or he may want to get it).

I don't think there's anything wrong with you proposing marriage to him. Who ever said it HAD to be the guy that did the asking.

However, I don't think it's in good taste for you to buy your own engagement ring. You could certainly give him one when you ask him (or after), but to buy your own is a little degrading to him (to me) and it would maybe make him feel like you thought he couldn't get you one or whatever he got you (later) wouldn't be good enough. I'm sure if he says yes to you, then it won't take long before he's out ring shopping or it could be something that you do together. Just keep that ring in mind at the store for when you do go shopping.

I wouldn't. My husband proposed when he was ready (just short of our 3-year anniversary). If I had put him on the spot and proposed any earlier, he would have freaked and bolted. It would have had nothing to do with how he felt about me; he had to reach the moment of readiness at his own pace. And I am confident he would have agreed with the guy above who said that it would be emasculating for me to have "scooped" his proposal -- potentially an unforgivable error. He would have taken it as a statement by me that "I don't trust you to do the right thing, so I'm going to take your testicles right now and force the issue."

No problem at all. My sister proposed to her husband when she was 20 at the races. The same day they met. They met at the races when she was 14 and he was 15 and were dating since. There not late late 20's and have 2 amazing children.

GO FOR IT! GOOD LUCK!

I think you can birng it up to him. you literally ask him.

but no, do not buy your own ring!!! that would be really sad for you. A man who would let he's grl buy her own ring is man who deserve to true quality female in this world, he would be the biggest looser ever.

you need to talk to him, tell him how you feel. and if he is not into talkin things like that guess what, this is part of life. ya are no together just to sat bf and gf. 3 years is a long time. he needs to step up. guys like this normally draw their gf away from them due to such ignorant behavior.

If he wont step up, then you deserve better.

i dont care what you do. if you are looking for permission i dont care. but your boyfriend sure will. he wont say anything but guys hate that. it is emasculating. dont ever buy your own ring. tell him you want a ring and show him which one, and tell him you want the next step, a proposal. his reaction will let you know if he would have accepted your marriage proposal. in other words, it is ok to say you want this from him but to do it yourself is just making a fool of both of you and embarrassing him.

I honestly don't see why not.

You love him and He loves you!

If you are ready to take that step let him know and even if he isn't ready... at least he will know you are and feel more comfortable about doing it later!

And hey, you will get the ring you want lol?!

Go for it. Nothing wrong at all. Have a great life together

no its not weird i think its cute and different i say go for it and enjoy your marriage! good luck

other things is not improtant

happy marriage !
