Yeah, you can do the simple drop to one knee and blurt
out the question bit. Just don't forget to set the mood first. Your lady
will appreciate you even more for taking the time to "set the stage" if
you will.
If your lady is the sentimental kind, why not put
together various things that will remind her of the various events in your
relationship. For example, why not put all the stuff in a box and go
through the contents with her. You can have a "remember when" afternoon
with each of you identifying the napkin you wrote her number on, the card
from the first bouquet of flowers you sent her, and so on.. Make sure to
carefully conceal one more item in the box that you will bring out. Of
course, the last item is the ring. Now's the time to say the lines you've
been rehearsing.
Too tame you say? Why not take it up a step? Take her
on a tour of your favorite places. Make it a day out. Start in your
favorite restaurant, do the things throughout the day that you enjoyed
most while getting to know each other (try to choose the most romantic
ones). How about ending your day by recreating your first dinner date? Pop
the question after dessert.
Not inclined to go out in the foul weather? No problem.
How about creating a treasure hunt especially for her? Start by creating a
note that may simply say something like follow the rainbow to find gold.
Next lay her a trail of something she loves that she'll definitely follow
(in this example, how about skittles). Put a few more notes in between
that say how you feel like, "you color my world". Of course at the end of
the trail when she opens the door, there you are, in perfect position and
saying the loveliest phrase any women can hear.
Of course, you may just prefer to literally ride off
into the sunset with her. Take her on a trip with to a place you've both
wanted to go. As you watch the sun set, ask her to marry you.
It doesn't have to be anything too elaborate, but your
lady will definitely appreciate the time and effort that you put into it.
It'll also help you avoid funny incidents like losing the ring as she
flips open her table napkin, if you think the deed through. In the end,
it's still all about one question and the fervent hope that she'll say
yes!
