Personally, I don`t see why everybody makes such a fuss about proposals. Just beacuse you propose to someone, doesn`t mean it`s the end of the world. You can stay engaged for as long as you want. And in the end if things don`t work out as you hoped you can still break the engagement. Just beacuse you get engaged, doesn`t mean you have to set a date or even set it soon. However, it is true that the couple should be quite commited to each other before one proposes. Afterall, that is still taking the relationship to a new level.
As for who should propose....its a question of personal prefferances really. It is nothing shameful or stupid if a womann proposes. However, im not sure it should be done quiet the same way men propose to women. Also, I personally would have perferred to do it myself. I consider a proposal an obstacle I must face on my own if I am to prove worthy of marrying the woman I love. Also, it would kill me as a gentleman if the woman would have to do all the hard work and spend so much money on a ring.
