Marriage?

[auser_name]

My and my boyfriend have been really serious lately and I really want to propose. How would I go about asking?

what does "been really serious" mean?

Omg, this is so cute. Do something that you know he'll love, maybe take him out to his favorite restaurant or to some other place he likes and have a good time with him. When you propose, make sure there isn't a crowd. But don't over think it and try to make it perfect, a plan is helpful, but you know him better than any of us do, just do something completely you and he will love it I promise.

Best of luck!

Can you elaborate a bit more? How serious have things gotten?

[West Coast Sheriff]

Have you discussed marriage with one another?
How long have y'all been together? Where do you each see yourself in 5 years?

Perhaps you have a favorite hangout spot/restaurant or good place for a proposal. But make sure you are both on the same page of what "serious" means

I strongly recommend against this. The divorce rate for couples that marry in and before there mid-20s is extremely high. I know that you are in love with each other now and it would be awesome for that to continue for the rest of your life, but we don't know that that will be the case yet.

The problem with getting married so young is that most of what you have been through together is the honeymoon period. To know someone well enough to marry them requires you to go throw the "real stuff". You need to be together long enough to fully understand each other's strengths and weaknesses.

Good luck.
