What many people fail to question though is the wisdom in proposing in the first place. Answers to the following questions will tell you if you really should be going down on a knee for someone.
- Do you want to wake up with this person every day until the day you die? This is too deep a question to be easily answered, unless you intimately know the person in question. Do not make the mistake of getting engaged simply because you fear losing your shot at a married life.
- Do your goals and values align? For instance, is she a highly practical person who values financial stability over your overbearing passion for travel and food?
- Who picks the ring? Different people want different things, and that includes
who the diamond-studded ring gets picked by. Given that the decision is a permanent one, it should carry inputs from both parties.
