10 examples of failed proposals

Even if the proposal is prepared with the utmost effort, it may lead to failure if it is not close to the feelings of the other party.
First of all, let’s take a look at past examples of what kind of proposals fail.

①Proposing when the future is uncertain

You need money to get married, have a wedding, move house, and raise children in the future.
Not all women think that money is everything, but there are things that make them uneasy about living together in the future, such as when their income is unstable, when they have just changed jobs, or when they have debts. It can be said that there is a high probability that a marriage proposal will lead to failure.
Many women will say yes to a proposal if you show your determination to shoulder the future of the other person, not only in your feelings but also in your attitude.

②A proposal that ignores the other person’s type

There are many men who think, “If it’s a big proposal, I’d like to have a lot of people cooperate and make a big surprise.”
However, if the other person is shy or doesn’t like to be the center of attention, a big proposal may actually make them feel uncomfortable.
Conversely, women who usually like surprises will definitely be pleased with a proposal like a flash mob.

③Proposal with half-hearted words

In everyday life, even if you intend to propose to someone by saying things like, “I want you to cook for me every day,” or “I admire that kind of couple,” the other person won’t know that it’s a proposal. In some cases, it fails.
There are also women who, even if they know that they are her, refuse or refuse because they want a more firm proposal, such as “Let’s get married.”
Therefore, try to convey it in straight words, not half-hearted words.

④Proposal for practical reasons

A proposal with a realistic reason such as “I’m going to be transferred soon, so let’s get married” will make the other person feel uneasy, asking, “Do you really want to marry me?” you may end up
In my mind, I’m thinking about marriage with my partner, and even if I say that because it’s the right time, it’s meaningless if it doesn’t get across to the other person.
First of all, be conscious of telling your partner that you want to get married.

⑤Proposal that was too nervous

Proposing is a nerve-wracking experience for many.
Therefore, even if you have various plans, you may be too nervous to go according to the plan, or you may not be able to have a lively conversation.
As a result, the other person may wonder, “Why is the atmosphere different from usual?”
There are many people who have decided to redo the proposal.

⑥Proposal on the premise of living with parents-in-law

Bringing up the idea of living with your parents-in-law along with the proposal, such as “Let’s get married and live with my parents” or “Let’s consider nursing care and build a two-family home”, is one of the proposals that can easily lead to failure.
Even if the other person has the intention to marry, it will be difficult to give an immediate answer because they cannot imagine living together.
Also, as with a job transfer, there is a risk that the other person will feel uneasy, saying, “You don’t want to marry me, but do you want me to take care of your parents?”
Let’s explain the story of living together on another occasion, and first tell your feelings that you want to get married.

⑦Drunk proposal

Many people want to create an atmosphere by drinking alcohol when proposing.
However, if you propose after drinking too much alcohol, there is a risk that the other person will suspect that you are doing it on the spot.
Also, if the other person is too drunk, there is a possibility that they will not remember the courageous proposal.
It would be a good idea to be careful so that you both drink in moderation.

⑧Proposal without mood

Mood is one of the most important elements in a proposal.
A proposal in a noisy environment such as a pub, a proposal while getting soaked in the rain, or a proposal in a hurry at the closing time of a theme park. I guess.

⑨Proposal from above

Even women don’t like proposals that look down on the other person, such as, “Can I marry you?”
Since you are going to spend a long life together from now on, let’s propose with words that will make the other person happy.

⑩Proposal by phone or LINE

Proposing without looking at the other person’s face, such as by phone or LINE, will not yield good results.
You can easily convey your feelings, but the other person will think, “Is a proposal such a light thing?”
Since it’s a big proposal, let’s tell the other person how you feel face to face.

How to make a proposal successful

So what should you do to make your proposal a success?
Here are some tips for success.

Reminisce about her memories

When proposing, it is effective to research the ideal situation and ask friends how to propose, but even if you do the same proposal, it is not always successful.
The most important thing is whether or not the other person is happy.
So, first of all, let’s recall the dates that she has been pleased with so far.
If you propose to her in a way that suits her tastes, you are more likely to please her.

Perform a Romantic

Many people think it’s a little embarrassing to make a proposal, such as making a reservation at a restaurant where you can see the night view, or preparing a ring or a rose.
However, there are many women who long for such classic situations, and it is no exaggeration to say that a romantic presentation increases the success rate of a proposal.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime proposal, so why not be brave and make a royal proposal?

Choose easy-to-understand words

There is a high possibility that the proposal will fail if the other person does not understand your feelings, such as a proposal that uses roundabout words or a proposal that conveys a realistic reason.
The first thing you should tell your partner is that you want to get married and that you like the other person.
Even if it’s embarrassing to say it again, try to convey it in straight words.

For example, “Please marry me.” “I will cherish it for the rest of my life.”

Don’t Surprise Too Much

If you are going to propose, many men want to surprise the other person.
However, whether or not she is happy with a surprise proposal depends on her personality.
In particular, be careful of excessive surprises that involve people around you or attract attention, as some women may become embarrassed or disillusioned.
Surprise can mean a variety of surprises, such as secretly preparing a bouquet and handing it over, or decorating your home with balloons.
It is important to prepare a surprise that is suitable for the other party.

Prepare a gift for a proposal

When proposing, it can be said that preparing a present at the same time as thinking about the place and words is a key to success.
Many women want to keep the keepsake of the proposal forever.
So, at the end, I would like to introduce you to the gift you want to give in the proposal.

Engagement Ring

A box pack using an engagement ring is a dream of many women.
For that, you need to prepare an engagement ring in advance.
The size and design of the ring should be considered when choosing an engagement ring.
The size should be based on the size of the ring that the other person is currently wearing.
There are stylish, cute, and simple designs, but if you choose the one that suits your partner’s taste, they will be pleased.

Bouquet

Bouquets are one of the most popular gifts for proposals.
A bouquet of roses, which you don’t get many chances to receive, has a special feeling and will be appreciated when you propose.
When giving a bouquet, the trick is to choose carefully the language of flowers, colors, and number of flowers.

Summary

The best way to make a proposal successful is to think about the other person.
Think about the other person first and plan your proposal, such as “What kind of personality does the other person have?” “What kind of situations does the other person like?”
