Marriage Proposal Ideas & Tips

By Anthony Amalokwu

To some, proposal making is old but I beg to differ. I told ladies in our church never to go into any marriage until a man proposes and they accept or rescind.

Wait a minute, do people still propose before they got married in this part of the world? It is common to see women pack their load into men’s houses and they call it marriage. When they are tired, they just call it quits.

Some believe the act of marital proposal is for certain cultures in the western world. A real man must be bold and romantic enough to look the lady he wants to spend the rest of his life with in the face and say “would you marry me?”
Welcome to Marriage 101 – The act of marital Proposal.

Introduction

Research has shown that a lot of people especially believers are not married due to the diverse challenges presented by the act of proposal.
