Marriage proposals are really important to people in a relationship because it signifies that they are about to take their relationship to the next level. In this day and age, men put a lot of effort and planning into their proposals and it is understandably a life-changing moment for people in love. But there are some things you need to stop doing after you are being proposed to.

 

Don’t Leave Him Hanging:

You might indeed have so many emotions running through your veins after your man has proposed but as soon as he bends on one knee, do not run around screaming and wailing without remembering that he is still on his knees waiting for an answer.  

 

Don’t Cut His Speech Short:

The gentleman might have been preparing his speech for a long time- do not cut him off with ‘Yes! Yes! Yes! I will marry you!!!'. Do not steal the moment from him as the moment belongs to both of you. Let him pour his heart out as there would be enough time for you to pour out yours. 

 

Do Not Broadcast:

Do not turn yourself to a journalist in the making; the ring is barely on your finger and you are already calling everyone you know in life to tell them of your new status. It makes it look like you are happier at the idea of getting married rather than the idea of getting married to him. Take the time to relish the moment with your partner as you can always share the news with people later on.

 

Do Not Be The Paparazzi:

Enjoy the moment and do not be particular about getting pictures out to the world; let him know that you are involved in everything that is going on. You should not even see anyone else but him at that moment.

 

Do Not Ask About The Ring Price:

Let your partner have this one; do not go harping about the price of the ring because you might end up getting disappointed if the price is way below your expectations. He made plans and executed them despite the nervousness he must have felt in a bid to ensure everything turned out great for you. If at all you have to ask due to curiosity, then let him tell you when he is ready. Do not feel bad if he never tells you.

 

Just be calm and enjoy the moment!
