Proposals

There was a discussion on the radio today about how over the top wedding proposals have become.  I remember how a "will you marry me" on the jumbotron at a sporting event seemed like a big deal.  

The DJ talked about how expectations to outdo the latest and greatest for proposing has gone over the top.  But is that really necessary?  Do women want all that?

It got me thinking about my own proposals.  I cannot remember the first one. Does that mean it wasn't memorable?  I remember the second,  and the third.  I know all I ever wanted was the simple question. I didn't need a whole to-do.  I'm too simple for all that hoopla.

Maybe this new trend is has to do with expectations, and/or the value placed on things over people and feelings.  Just my opinion.  Or else I'm just too old to get it!
