I think it’s acceptable for a girl to tell a man her ring size and show him designs she might like. The guy still has to be the one who makes the decision on what ring to buy. You should take what she likes into account, but it’s the man’s decision because it’s the man’s expression of his love. Also, don’t pay attention to any of that salary crap. Spend what you’re comfortable with.

Does it involved being “pegged?”
I’d say no, but it’s 2022 and you should did what you do IF that is what you want.

She sounds like a control freak. Randomly pop the question and if she gets mad rather than thrilled then tell her to frick off and don’t marry her.
If she wants to stage the photo you can do that after and have a friend waiting to take the pic

It was funny when me and my fiancée got engaged. At her favorite 5 star restaurant with a private booth. I’m nervous as I get up to walk around the table to her, knee hits the table almost knocking the glasses over. She says watch out. Then looks at the menu paying me no attention. I walk around to her and start to get on a knee and she is still looking at the menu and says “what the frick are you doing” I say “look at me I’m trying to propose to you” then she got all excited. She wasn’t expecting it. It makes for a good laugh now

This is a big red flag. A marriage proposal should be a private, intimate thing. No future MIL taking pictures of a fake surprise to go on IG.

Why would you want to know you’re being proposed to? Weird. I was completely shocked and it was wonderful that way.

I’d assume she’s being quite honest that she does in fact want to plan it. But you should put your foot down and refuse though. You will look tremendously weak to everyone observing, and probably will to her as well in her subconscious.
This. Tell her you want to surprise her but you’re open for “suggestions” on ideas that would make her happy. But I’m betting she is shallow and is more worried about social media than the OP which is a problem. Ours was private we didn’t even take a staged photo but I knew she preferred private and not a huge public scene. We had professional engagement pics done months later

Same. Did it in the foyer the day we got the keys to the home we bought. Just us two. No photos. No friends of mine knew ahead of time. I was a tad drunk from brunch with girlfriends beforehand

The way I met my fiancée was me and my best friend stumbled into a nice local restaurant hammered drunk and sat at the bar. I was so drunk I was eating salad and tuna tartar with my fingers and told her she looked pretty in the shirt she was wearing. Somehow she gave my dumbass her phone number

"She" it's OK to say your boyfriend.

You might want to consider her coping skills when life is NOT Insta-worthy.

RUN - you do not want this kind of control freak controlling your life.

I find that really odd. That’s kind of the guy’s thing and he gets to see her surprised/happy. She will have a whole wedding to plan after.

Hey, congratulations either way!

You are already Pu**ywhipped. Man up!
No woman will plan her own engagement… how will she complain to her friends after?

Agreed, it just shows how superficial people are. Gotta get them likes!

Yes but I meant size of diamond .. should have been a little more clear.
