Tips for getting your Boyfriend to the Altar
He may be Mr. Right, but how do you get him to the altar? This can be a challenge, but with persistence and careful strategy you may just be successful at this. The following are tips for getting your boyfriend down that iconic aisle.
Do special things for him
You want to have a positive relationship with your boyfriend. You can often do small things that can make a big difference to him. For instance, make his favorite meal. Buy him tickets to his favorite sports game. Let him choose the movie to watch. Give him a massage. It doesn’t have to be about spending money but instead about being thoughtful.
Let him know that you are interested in marriage without being too overwhelming
Sometimes a man might not propose not because he doesn’t want to marry you but because he is not sure that you want to marry him. Giving a proposal is a difficult thing and many men are scared of rejection. They may be afraid that you are going to say no and have it affect your relationship as a whole. Sometimes there are ways that you can subtlety hint that you are interested in getting married. It might be to talk about someone else getting married wistfully, to look at engagement rings or so forth. Of course in some situations you might just want to have a frank talk about it. Let him know that you are happy in your relationship and would be pleased if it went to the next level. If there are issues or reasons that are stopping him, then you can discuss these. A lot of times, men have a fear of commitment. You can do what you can to ease his fears. Do not be too strong, and sometimes it is just a matter of backing off and giving him some time.
Propose to him
Just because you are a woman does not mean that you can’t be the one to propose. How he will respond to this will decide on what kind of guy he is. Some men would be thrilled and like it while others might be more traditional and want to be the one doing to proposal. Try to think about whether this will actually work but it is definitely something you could consider.
If you want to get your man to the altar, then there are steps you can take. Consider the above ideas to help you accomplish your matrimonial goals.
