Re: Proposals 101
No, of course not...she was downhearted like i was, i wish her all the best, but that's all in the past.
Re: Proposals 101
Have you moved on with your life (mean you found somoene else)? If not then dont let ego come in between. Is that so?
Re: Proposals 101
I'm not one to hold a grudge, and no i have not found anyone else.
Re: Proposals 101
then whats the harm in politely ping-ing her to see if things improved or not?
I hope you dont mind my saying or advice or whatever. :)
Re: Proposals 101

Re: Proposals 101
There isn't...but i already know where that road will end.
I hope you dont mind my saying or advice or whatever. :)
Don't mind at all.
Re: Proposals 101
That assumes you know the girl’s dad or can scheme a way to approach him directly without the girl finding out first…
And the random ambush of the girl’s dad starting with “Hi, you don’t know me, but I wanna marry your daughter…” is going to end badly…
Re: Proposals 101
yeah, get to know the dad through the grl … be at friendly terms with him… then ask him in a gentleman’s way , without the grl knowing 
random ambush == the end !!
Re: Proposals 101
Trying to be friendly with a desi girl’s dad without either the girl or the dad realising that you’re positioning yourself to propose… 
Re: Proposals 101
yar people are Not dumb ok… they get the idea @ u r positioning urself… its just that u do it in a decent way dont go about telling the girl @ i m being friends with ur dad coz i want to ask for ur hand .. so u just be nice to everyone who’z related to the girl ( and be nice to every one else too ) just shoe that u care and do care for them

Aww Orpheus...I really admire your strength dude...thumbs up to you and good luck finding the one who was actually intended for you :)
Re: Proposals 101
wat about the rest of you? who do I have to ask? 
Re: Proposals 101
oh well. Good luck dude. But I always say, nothing is done until its 'done'.
mad_scientist, I agree with ahsan225. People are not dumb. but I only agree with one thing he said, that you need to be in parents good books too.
Alas in my case, thats not an option. I will later know what parents think etc.
How about a simple innocent question, just a innocous one liner, on phone or email?
Re: Proposals 101
no phone no email ... i think face to face works the best ... goes out to show u are confident enuff :) and if that is not an option, u shud go fr the phone.
Re: Proposals 101
For some putting that into practice is all too difficult.
Re: Proposals 101
Buy a box of her favorite chocolates, write your proposal message on a nice nice paper or card. Put the card in the box, wrap it with some pretty paper and ribbons. Leave it on her door, ring the bell and leave.
Later call her and ask her what she thinks about the gift and did she like, etc etc....:D
Re: Proposals 101
it may be so, but then its no hard n fast rule for it u can go anyway u want and "A good partner is worth gold " and gold is always dificult to get isnt it so ??
There is always @ LUSSI’s idea for those who find it dificult my way 
Re: Proposals 101
Thread reminds me of how one of our classmates(Malang Bacha) proposed another one. We nicked him "Malang Bacha" bcoz he was fond of watching Pashto movies in Ritz and Moonlight cinemas of Lahore (Lahories will knwo what it means) and he made no secret of it. However his beloved was skinny and after lot of thought, he finally mustered anough courage to propose to her. Funny thing is that this was teh first time or may be the second time he talked to her. So malang bacha approaches her in the corridor of biochemistry department and proposes, and she says: "Utaaroon Joota"
