  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I would like the choice be left to me and the timming of it to be left to God, but if she felt so strongly that she wanted to take that step she could ask about it and discuss is through and then we'll do it together. But I don't think I would turn a girl down for asking to marry me, if she was the 'blessing of my life' so to speek

if proposals mean a lot to you, that's great, and i hope you have/had a really sweet and romantic one! :)

for me though, they are just a formality and rather silly... but that's also because we did things differently than most 'traditional' couples. we just mutually agreed to get married and decided on a wedding date. a few months later we bought rings.

in fact, i think it was i who first brought up the idea of marriage... so maybe i was the one who proposed! :D

I don't know about that idea. Sure, there are some guys who would appreciate it... but there are others who would be really offput. Especially one that didn't actually know if he wanted to marry you... or even if he did think that he wanted to marry you, didn't want to marry you right now.

Personally, I assume that the reason my boyfriend hasn't asked me to marry him is because he's not ready to marry me. I'm not ready to marry him either, so I guess that it doesn't bother me at all... I don't know what I'd do if I were 100% ready to marry him, and he hadn't asked me. I doubt the answer would be to propose to him. I think if I were ready and he wasn't, I'd either be patient or be single. But that's just me. :)

There is something twistedly wrong with the relationship if the woman proposed.

I would probably never find myself in this situation to begin with. It would have been real clear that I am doing the proposing. So if she proposed I would have a problem because then it would show she didn't listen to me.

In my mind... a woman who doesn't let a man romance her is not allowing the man to be a man. We don't need anymore passive wimpy men in this world!!
