Gender Roles Proposal

I think that it is definitely a problem that some women think a marriage proposal should be a complete surprise. It is important to be on the same page as your significant other. I also think people hold a lot of high expectations when it comes to proposals. I think a lot of men would be completely caught off guard if the girl proposed. I think some would feel disappointed that they didn't get to buy a ring or plan a romantic engagement. I go back and forth on whether or not I think it is the man's job to propose. Really I think it just depends on the couple and whatever they feel. As long as the two people getting engaged are in love then that is all that matters. Not so much the ring or how it happened, but the decision that they will spend the rest of their lives together. My grandparents got engaged on my grandmother's birthday, and my dad proposed to my mom on his birthday.
