• You can hint about wanting to propose to see what her reaction would be.

Most time when a man proposes the anticipated answer is always a 'Yes'.

But that is far from the truth.

In the recent past, we have seen men left humiliated after the women in their lives turned down their proposals.

Below is a list of things to consider before proposing.

1. How well do you know that person

It is not possible to know a person entirely, but there are basic things one should consider before popping the question.

Do you know any of her family members, what she does for a living etc?

2. If you are both interested in getting married

A proposal is one step towards marriage.

People date for different reasons. For some, it's for financial assistance or societal pressure among other reasons.

Before you propose be sure that your woman wants to spend her entire life with you.

3. Whether you are on good terms or not

Some men propose even when they are not on good terms with their baes.

They do this with the hope of being forgiven, sadly things don't always work that way.

4. If she includes you in her plans

Sometimes we ignore red flags such as someone making everything about themselves despite being in a relationship.

Before proposing ensure your woman uses 'we, us' when referring to future plans regarding your relationship.

It means she sees a future with you.

5. Why she loves you

Only propose to a woman who would still want to be in your life whether you have something or not.

If a woman is only good to you when you have something to offer, run.
