Engagement Ring/ Proposal : You Do or you Don't

[icebreaker27]

when i proposed to my then soon to be wife she's thousand of miles away from me.... i never really gave her a ring or something until we are married, and i'm glad i did it... and now almost 9 years na kaming kasal with 2 kids, so far so good....but i never stop courting her, i always give her 1 or 2 boquet of flowers everytime i go home. And to think about it, all the ladies in my past that i gave a ring doesn't really end up to what i'm expecting...tsk...tsk...tsk.

Anyhow, i'm just saying this kasi part of it due to my not so well to remember experience  but the major reason is that i believe in love ....which is the most important than any material things around. Material things can be lost, or broken. It can't really hold a relationship to a heights because it is just a symbol na hindi niya pwedeng isuot araw-araw kasi in this world today, delikado especially yung mga super expensive. Ring for example is just an expression and symbol of commitment to one another but it can never bind you together like a marraige contract. After the engagement, you and her still have a choice to continue or broke apart. I'm not being negative but merely expressing reasons for you to weigh.

My point is, just do what you're heart tells you to do but don't force yourself if you can't. It may influence her decision at that moment but it will not last forever so it doesn't really matter kung gaano ka-expensive yung ibibigay mo sa kanya, ang importante is to show how much you love her, and i'm sure if the lady really love you and want to be with you, nothing matter most than you. I'm not saying for you to be cheap with her or be something practical but weigh your options carefully. Kasi for example you gave something expensive to her but you have to double your effort in working para lang mabayaran mo or makaipon ka ng pambili and because of that napabayaan mo naman ang relasyon ninyo so what's the point of giving something expensive if your most expensive person lacks your attention? And how about the marraige, malaki din ang gastos doon? But If you have the ability then give the best for her, it's something worth remembering of course.

sir groundhog...salamat sa advice...hahaha

mukhang ang dami mo ngang experience sa girls???
well, sana isa lang ang pinagproposan mo...haha haha
 

Hahaha... sir aga one time lang ako nagproposed the problem is i did exactly the opposite of what I have written here. Big regret in my life di ko pinahalagan yun proposal.
My wife loves me no doubt about that but I didn't reciprocate by showing it to her from the start.
Pag may nagtatanong how I proposed parang napapahiya sya at ako kasi ng parang balewala lng ginawa ko.
I just hope with this advise I could influence yun magpropose pa lang not to make the same mistake I did.
