I...um, I'm speechless. This guy....funny, he's a funny guy. He's got game, lol. I wonder if she went heading for the hills after seeing this, or if they got married on top of a mountain and had lots of kids and started a traveling band. Anyway, thought I'd share.

    Why go through all that effort making a 3minute long video, instead of just asking "Will you mary me?"

    I'm sorry, but the whole proposal concept is just so absurd, don't u people debate and talk marriage progressively over time? What's the big deal about one silly question at one particular time accopannied by a stupid ring u dump all your savings into?

    I totaly agree with britoca. Wht spend all your lifesavings on a ring, when you can buy a much cheaper ring and then maybe later use it as a downpayment on a house?

    Yea, popping the question isn't very prudent...maybe more romantic, but if they don't want to marry you, they will say no regardless of how you propose.

    yeah, I come from a culture of the concept of "popping the question" doesn't exist. People just talk about it if they need to talk about it, like they would talk about any other issue, and if they both agree about it, they just both agreed to marry each other, etc, then they tell family and friends, etc, obviously, but the whole thing with the "BIG QUESTION" is just seems like utter excessive romatic fantasy. And ti always has to be "so special", etc... The people ride the peak of marriage, idealizing it all the way right from that first "big question" to "event day", putting it way up in a pedestal, everyone daydreaming, anticipating the perfect wedding, and then they get there... and it's just life as usual, as it always had been... and then comes disappointment and statistics...

    Hey congratulations to those people whose marriage works and they find themselves happy, seriously, but I see this excessive buildup of anticipation, of extasy, of unrealistically idealizing the whole concept to a point where one slip leads to a lot of frustration and disappointment in the long run. Then they come around and they ask "did u like it?", "did I look happy?" completely wrong questions... Did YOU like it? Are YOU happy?

    "Popping the question" is usually a romantic formality done after actually talking about marriage, I don't think any guy just comes out of nowhere and asks his significant other to marry him without having some kind of indication she wants to do so in the first place.

    That being said, if your marriage came of having a "sit down" and negotiating the thing in a mature, rational, (and dull) conversation, it seems to me that your marriage is going to be equally mature, rational, and dull. Marriage without romance? Marriage without being so in love that you want to do crazy things like the guy in the video? No thanks, I'll take my crazy romance and affection over your rational approach anyday.

    And plus, statisticly speaking, there's a very good chance that your marriage is going to suck and end in divorce anyway, rational sit down or not. I say enjoy it while it lasts, and get some good memories out of it.

    We have been together for 18 years and married since 1999. We have been to counseling and had our share of hurdles. But I think she would agree with me that we are closer now than ever.

    I think Hollywood and celebrities in general do marrige a great disservice with their constant partner swapping and using marrige like an excuse for a party rather than the solemn commiment it is. Still 99.99% of stars are so shallow I guess the whole concept of making a promise to someone and keeping it would be pretty hard to grasp for them.

    This notion of "irreconcilable differences" is just lamer speak for "couldnt be bothered working it out"

    Its a shame because the relationship you get from working through hard times together is far deeper and more rewarding than the basic instinct lust that people mistake for love in the first 12 months. I only know because Ive seen both sides now. At 25 y/o if anyone said to me "youll be married and youll enjoy it" I would have slapped them. But thats the beauty of ignorance, you always have a chance to work through it.

    I'll agree that marriage is very much about compromise, and that a marriage takes work from both parties involved in order to last. In my own experience, my marriage failed due to the fact that my own significant other realized after a year and a half that she wasn't ready to spend the rest of her life dedicated to one person. Which I suppose in retrospect was understandable, we were both very young at the time, and I don't think that she fully understood the gravity of what she was commiting herself to until after the fact. Of course, I'm not one to completely lay the blame for our falling out at her feet. But the point is that ultimately she was simply unready or unwilling to work it out, to come to some kind of accord, and it was this unwillingness which doomed our marriage to failure.

    I'm not saying that there aren't marriages that last, nor that I won't ever get married again. But it is a fact that most marriages just don't last these days. Why? I'd say its because divorce as such has become socially acceptable. Maintaining a marriage takes maturity, commitment, and in most cases a healthy dose of romance. I think its something very special when two people can actually perform this balancing act and stay together for years of their lives. But the truth is, most couples can't. Fifty years ago, these couples would probably stay together, "for better or for worse", because divorce as such was frowned upon, and was an option taken only in the most miserable of circumstances, if at all. Now that divorce is socially acceptable, people feel much more free to "call it quites", indeed some people even seem to look for excuses to do so. Is this a good thing? In my personal opinion no, I think that the social acceptability of divorce has in general cheapened the institution of marriage. But then again, I wouldn't want to see anybody miserably trapped in a marriage they didn't want to be in. The high divorce rate is a reprecution of the liberalisation of society in general, one can either accept it as such, or oppose this trend of liberalisation in its entirty. I'd say I tend towards the latter.
