To be honest I don’t understand why women act surprised and mushy when a man proposes to them. I mean you have been dating and in all of those two years you guys didn’t discuss marriage?
If you did, why the overly histrionic displays when a man goes down on one knee to stain his trousers with Naija dust? I don’t know how relationships go, see I am a Pope but I would think if I were ever going to get married, I would have discussed marriage a hundred times with my prospective wife.
Type of marriage, prospective period of marriage, number of kids, kind of education for the kids, honeymoon location, choice of city to live in, number of palmwine glasses I’d get per day, who gets tv rights when it is Arsenal vs The Promise. I mean the whole gamut.
So point is, if I am getting married to a girl she’d know a full year before the proposal. So why the surprise package? Abi she no believe me before ke? Why the occasional tears sef? Are you shocked that someone you dated for years is asking you to marry him?
Anyways, before I started dating Chinenye, I asked her, will you marry me? And she replied with a sweet smile on her face, of course you know I’d marry you, you leave me no choice.
See? Me I done skip proposal and engagement ring o. I have even done the math in PKE – Palmy Kegs Equivalent.
