    Why are you in such a rush??? Have some humility, girl! Maybe I am old-fashioned, but I have NEVER heard of a girl proposing to a guy. What difference does it make if you wait til the summer and he proposes. It is a long standing tradition for the man to have the "honors"...relax and wait. It will definitely make it more special for BOTH of you......

    Are you going to want to control everything?

    how is it odd to propose to a guy, gay guys do it all the time but seriously all those that say its odd wake up the world changed a long time ago so get used to it, and you don't have to propose where a lot of people are there you know and you can do it anywhere you feel most comfortable doing it and don't rush into it by the way because he said he was going to do it and by the way how did you find out he wants to do it in the summer

    Seeing that your boyfriend has said he wants to do it this summer - just wait.

    For you to do it could really ruin the occasion...

    The reason that guys do it, is because women become impatient when they think they are in love.

    My boyfriend said he was going to propose and i was considering asking him myself when i had been waiting for a few month with no ring in sight, but it would have ruined it.

    I would always have wondered if he really wanted to marry me, or if he just married me because i insisted on getting engaged...

    In the end he proposed, in a perfect setting with the perfect ring - he really spent the months thinking what he wanted to do.

    It's becoming more popular for women to propose to men. There is even a day dedicated to it, February 29th every leap year, which you'll have to wait for another 4 years to do it if you wanted to do it on that day! But you can propose any day. But if you know he's wanting to propose to you, he might have it all set up in his mind, how he is going to make it perfect for you. You have to ask yourself, as you know him better than we do, if he'd be upset that he didn't get the chance to ask you or if he'd be ecstatic that you asked him.

    I think he would be happy that you're making the first move.

    If you want to do it, you go for it girl!

    Why shouldn't you be able to? I hate the sexism that guys should always make the first move with stuff like marriage and everything.

    Do it at home, cook him a romantic dinner and then do it when he is least expecting it - it will be a really lovely surprise for him and I think he'll really like it, but you better do it soon before he proposes first!

    YOU GO GIRL!

    I proposed to my boyfriend on the top of mount snowdon.

    In your case if you know he is planning to ask you this summer, I would wait for him as he may have something planned.

    This is 2009, I'm a man of the times I live in. Yes, it would be acceptable to me. But I don't know your boyfriend. You know him better than I do. How dose he feel when you suggest something to him?

  • 1 decade ago

    no its not wiered lots of girls do it but if u know he wants to do it in the summer do u really want to de-masculate him and take away the one thing that he wants to do for u? instead what u should do id get something really sweet planned like houndreds of candels and maybe some sexy sleepwear( if ur sexually active) and make ur engagement night a night to remember
