She knows I want to propose, she wants to plan it. Is this a trick and I should do it? She is always the planner but not sure if this is something she really wants or not

My gf ain’t no poor. This has to be done right
There's no way that a girl who is adamant about planning your engagement and it "has to be done right" isn't anything but seriously high maintenance.

Not meaning this to be a smart arse. I went through a divorce too. But I cannot even imagine falling in love and wanting to marry someone that wanted to plan her own engagement with me. Like literally, I can't imagine a bigger red flag. If she couldn't even allow me the pride of choosing her ring and choosing how and when I wanted to ask her to spend her life with me?
I'd start preparing now for your second divorce.

Then she is controlling. Better nip that in the bud early. That is ridiculous

I can't see any logical way she's just a down to earth, laid back type of girl.

Of course the A&M fan wants to have his "gf" propose to him
Posted on 10/26/22 at 2:24 pm to fareplay
No. Don’t do it. Take some time for yourself, and do things how you want.
If she wants to control how you propose, she may want to control everything else. It may seem okay right now, but a few years down the road it might not.

I think I read earlier where the OP said something like, isn't this supposed to be her day?
Ummmmm....no. It's honestly not. The engagement is not her day. I would argue that it's more the future groom's one day in the relationship.

My only request when a proposal conversation came up was don’t propose to me on a major holiday. I can’t imagine wanting to plan my own proposal.
Seek pre-marriage counseling if you decide to go through with this. Please.

this is a good idea. just be sure and ruin her planned Instagram post by surprising her with a small diamond
Posted on 10/26/22 at 2:33 pm to jamiegla1
Along those lines, he OP should plan the most epic engagment ever but get her a meh engagement ring.
I wonder how that would go over with the OP's fiance. From the sound of things, not good.

There are worse reasons to get married than FOMO, but it’s still a very very very bad reason.

A&M being added to the sec was the worst thing to ever happen to this site

OP is posting all over this board, but ran like a scalded dog from this thread.

I’m female .. would never have wanted to plan the proposal. Imo, which counts for nothing, that’s just not a good sign. Did she demand a certain size ring as well?

you are bragging about not being good enough for your gf's dad?
Never change, OT!
