I ...Everything I want to say on this has been said. I agree with you. The man should chase, woo and propose. I mean, its his duty to 'FIND' the wife. Not the other way around. But these days, sisters are not smiling oh; u never know... haha<br /><br />- LDPAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898844588434855654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-1884423450396031812012-03-17T15:53:03.160+00:002012-03-17T15:53:03.160+00:00I don't know if this is old school or not, but...I don't know if this is old school or not, but I sure know that there's a reason why the Bible says HE that finds a WIFE finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord. i.e. the man finds the wife...yes the woman may drop subtle hints like the case of Ruth but the finding/asking is the man's responsibility! And I dare say if he ain't asking after a while, "drop him like it's hot"!!! <br />My perception of the whole thing changed when a friend of mind got dumped after NINE friggin years in a relationship.<br />I guess what I'm saying is: definitely, it is the guy's duty to propose, but I will want to know where the relationship is headed from the get go!<br />Used to think, it is a taboo to ask where the relationship is heading...but now...after that friend's experience, I have learnt not to even hesitate to ask...May we not be turned to chewing sticks!

Am I asking for too much? I don't think so. Some things are just wired so and when we try to alter the natural pattern, it don't go down so well. True, some ladies have proposed n its been bliss........but here's my thinking, if a man cant take the lead to propose, when is he gonna wear the pants?<br /><br />http://fountainflows-omoregee.blogspot.comOmoregeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00012192814709955219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-30296457693786769262012-03-14T22:16:17.012+00:002012-03-14T22:16:17.012+00:00Glad to have you back, Writefreak.

However, a lot of men tend to drag their feet sometimes so yes, women should feel free to do a little prompting when the need arises.Geebeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06865221163860159914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-81268753821558301522012-03-08T09:37:12.115+00:002012-03-08T09:37:12.115+00:00I have no issues with a woman proposing, I dont be...I have no issues with a woman proposing, I dont believe it is a right or wrong issue either and wont have a problem with a woman who proposes.<br /><br />Personally though, I wont feel comfortable proposing cos like i said on another blog (i think myne's) I'd feel like "if i have to propose them maybe you dont feel me that way".jhazmynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937354854181520677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-25357528473117981522012-03-07T15:20:46.736+00:002012-03-07T15:20:46.736+00:00Personally, I think you take the sizzle out when y...Personally, I think you take the sizzle out when you find a woman proposing to a man...most times, he will agree to save face, and that is the beginning of the end.<br /><br />ON the bright side, it works out sometimes!Emaleecioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03073712989459399826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-54387599044308183842012-03-07T11:05:22.630+00:002012-03-07T11:05:22.630+00:00Men have been wired to be hunters.

We may kid ourselves, but thats how it really is. <br />Some morder women may argue this from now till the end, but men are hunters and thats how it will continue to be. <br /><br />The world has changed over time and some abnormal things have become normal, like a man not taking the leadership role he is supposed to take, which is very unfortunate. This has made the scale tip and some women do what is meant for the men.<br /><br />Oh well, its life sha.@ilolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18034184376612190658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-255264588551654388.post-34552503725864807522012-03-07T10:42:16.290+00:002012-03-07T10:42:16.290+00:00Well I do think the man should do the asking. Not ...Well I do think the man should do the asking. Not necessarily from a religious angle but from the angle of "how we are structured" Men are built/engineered to protect and provide while women are built to nurture and care. For a man to protect and provide in a relationship (and this does not have to be financial) he needs to have a sense of leadership and in a marriage this starts even from proposal. The man needs to do the asking so that it affirms to him and to her that this is what he wants - this is the woman he wants to protect and provide for. <br /><br />I dont know if I am making sense but this is my two cents<br /><br />I have never believed in the "he is too shy to ask" theory - he simply doesnt want it enough... if he does he will ask, if he doesnt he doesnt want it....EsteribyEniihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556806485824552877noreply@blogger.com
