Sometimes we tend to be in relationships for a long period of
time, yet expecting your boyfriend to pop the question and probably no
sign he's going to do pop the question anytime soon.
If you are desperate enough, you can try some of these suggestions.
Become His Mother’s Best Friend
Why are you
spending those lazy Saturday afternoons gossiping with friends and
catching up on the latest gist? Why are you following him to Cold Stone
for ice-cream? Stop that now! Spend your Saturdays with your potential
mum-in law.
Go to the market, make her lunch and arrange her closet. That way,
he’ll notice the bond between you and her. If he is a mama’s boy, you
already have that ring.
Attend Every Family Function
Even if he just
mentions it casually or doesn’t invite you, FIND the venue. That
favourite aunt of his would notice you and start pestering him to marry
you. Don’t forget to dress to kill and buy the Aso-Ebi where applicable.
Cook Your Heart Out.
Don’t waste his money on a
buffet at Protea today and Thai food tomorrow. In fact you are wasting
your children’s school fees on irrelevant dates. If you’re not able to
cook, LEARN! Enroll yourself for catering classes. Furthermore, as our
people say, the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
Let Him Win most Arguments
Ladies stop arguing
and just accept. Men love nothing more than to have their ego stroked,
so massage and polish that ego. Sometimes there could be a particular
issue in the relationship that keeps rearing its ugly head. You argue
and it makes him less inclined to marry you.
Minimize Your Outings
You are on the path to
being Mrs Somebody. Your man can’t propose to you if you are still
gallivanting around town with your “girls” going out for drinks,
concerts and so on. Hang out with them during the day. If you have to be
out at night, make sure it’s in his company or a night vigil. This way,
you are adding more yards to your wife material.
Always Look Smashing
There is nothing more that a
man likes than his woman looking like a 10. What are you using your
salary for? Invest it in your looks. That’s what attracted him in the
first place. If you are into weaves, you can’t slack using cheap
synthetic ones; you must go for Brazilian, Peruvian, or Mongolian
weaves.
If you are team natural, make sure you’ve got it together. Most
importantly make sure your nails are perfectly manicured because you
never know when he’ll propose.
He Must be Your Plus+One For all Weddings.
Forget
that single girlfriend of yours that tags along to weddings with you to
fish for men. Take your potential le hubby! This way he’ll get inspired
by what he sees. In fact get all your friends to start asking “when is
it your turn guys?” You know how that could be annoying. He’ll just get
tired of hearing it all the time and he just might pop the Q to shut
them up.
Catching The Bouquet.
This is extremely
important. At every wedding you attend, you must and I stress MUST catch
the bouquet by all means. You can push, pull weaves, punch your
competitors or even bribe the bride. Just make sure you go home with the
bouquet. If you catch it each time, he’ll think it’s a sign from God.
You Don’t need an 18-carat Diamond Tiffany& co Engagement Ring.
Nowadays,
a lot of guys have it in their heads that they need to invest in a
center stone and who can blame them? Ladies be content. Be it diamond,
ruby, emerald, granite or a piece of Olumo rock.
After all ain’t nobody’s “bidness” but yours and your baby! The whole
point is to have a ring with a rock. Let your guy know you’d be happy
either way. This way, he’ll need less time to save up for a ring.
Buy your wedding dress and deposit for a reception venue!
This
is FAITH and the most important of all. The good book says with God all
things are possible. You need to believe that he is going to propose so
my dear go ahead.
