    I'd been carrying the ring around in my pocket for 3 months trying to come up with my plan. We were at her house watching a movie one day and she started complaining and moaning that I was never going to ask her. I acted all ****** off and told her to get in the truck. She did and kept asking where we were going I told her to the house to get the shotgun I had just bought for her. I had bought the shotgun a few days earlier, I just threw the ring in the case with the shotgun and told her to open it up.

        Surprised that no one has said her dad did it for him, with the help of a shotgun

          I was 18 and she was 21, been together for 4 years at the time. I planned a getaway to Cancun and on the first night we went on a moonlight walk on the beach where I got down on one knee and popped the question. I thought I was being overly romantic, especially for an 18 year old, and even though she said yes I didn't get the teary reaction I expected. I think she was in shock more than anything. We have now been together for 21 years and married for 15 this month.

            Mine was as cinnamon creek. It started out just shooing st the 3d targets outside. I had my two cousins with us. Before we went shooting I got her favorite flowers and favorite wine, I then gave them to my cousin who showed up 10 mins early to hide those underneath the benches (picnic area out there). Also had him take one of those plastic vending machines the little toy container that comes out of for kids. ( she'd always ask me when I'd get her a ring and I would always joke about going to cicis pizza and get her a 50 cent ring) so after doing from target to target we finally made it to the one with the tapes item on the 3d target. At 30 yards you couldn't rrll what it was, so I say " what is that? Bet you I can shoot it!) she said I couldn't and didn't think anything of it. My second shot I hit it, after I shot it my cousin ran over to see what it was I shot. After he got down there (she still had no idea what was going on and was taking to my other cousin while he ran down there, perfect!) he slipped the ring on my arrow that hit the item, and yelled dude look what you hit you'll never believe this! So we all walked down to check it out. I made sure shr was ahead of me and my other cousin behind me record on her phone. She got down to the arrow and saw the ring on the arrow. ( as if I shot the 50 cent ring out of the plastic container thing.) she turned around in all, I then grabbed the ring off and proposed, followed by her favorite flowers and chilled wine in a cooler we had under the picnic area table. We then celebrated. She loved the idea of nothing huge and expecting it to happen.

                    Went all out with my ex wife.. Was stationed in Germany, took her to Paris and hit a knee in front of the Eifel Tower at dusk. Then the ..... couldn't keep her pants on when I went back to the desert. When I propose to my current gf, it'll be something less extravagant. She's simpler than my ex, and I like it better that way. She'll appreciate the simple way

                        I had graduated in December and she was graduating in May. We'd been going to premarital counseling, we'd picked out a nice heart-shaped diamond, all was going really well. I had a friend who's a silversmith make our rings for us. It was a Monday morning, Dead Day of finals week, when I got the call that the rings were finished. I rolled by and picked them up, and about 15 minutes later I was in her dorm room giving her her graduation present. It was a sewing box with some notions and supplies, all stocked up. At the bottom was a heart-shaped pin cushion, and pinned to the bottom of it was her ring. When she found it, she gasped, I dropped to my knee and asked. She said yes, of course, and then we left for our counseling appt. The first one to know was our counselor! Not the most romantic gesture, maybe, but I just couldn't wait. Almost 13 years and two kids later, it's still holding!
