Are you ready to ask your partner that big question? That’s exciting! It might be difficult to know how exactly to pose the “will you marry me?” question. That’s why we’ve written this article to give you a few different ways to get ready to pronounce your love.
“Will you marry me?”
This is the classic line. It’s worked hundreds of thousands of times so there’s nothing wrong with going for something tried and true. It’s a traditional line that gets right down to the point with no nonsense. After all, you’re just asking for them to marry you. It’s really quite simple!
“You’re the one I’ve waited my whole life for”
This is a cute one. It shows you only have eyes for them. It lets them know that they are the special person out of all the millions in the world who you’ve set your heart on.
“I want to grow old with you”
This proposal is particularly sweet because it focuses on the other person’s personality above any other quality such as looks, money or fame. It lets them know right away that you foresee a long, healthy, happy relationship with them. Someone you grow old with is someone you can trust and someone you feel completely at home with.
“I can’t imagine my life without you in it”
With this line you let your partner know that they are a very important person. In the wrong situations it can come off a little bit clingy, but maybe you’re both so deeply in love, that a life without the other person is unbearable to think about.
“You light up my life like no other. Will you be my forever flame?”
Why not open up with this poetic line? It could sound a bit cringy, but we think it’s a very sweet metaphor. He or she gives you that warm glowing feeling like you’re always at home.
