Re-proposal?

mlw, on November 9, 2013 at 7:29 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

If you two had once been engaged, but some things happened that kinda took you two apart from each other (outside people, circumstances), and it has been an up and down rollercoaster kind-of 3 years... would you do a reproposal, or just figure the intention in your heart was good enough? Would other people see it with an eyeroll and cheesy??

Thanks...

    Personally? I would want a reproposal. I mean, I dont know the situation entirely but I would want to KNOW in their heart that a marriage is what they want. But that's an outsiders point of view.

    He always has... I have been burned, and have been more or less the hold-out.

    Honestly and personally, I would roll my eyes. He's already proposed, you've already said yes. If you had some break (but not a break-up) in between but then worked things out and agreed to still get married, then that's just you guys working through things. Now, if you broke up, were apart for years, dated other people in between, and then started dating again for a while... a second proposal might be warranted.

    That said, I don't know the details of your relationship.

    This happened to me. We were engaged but because we were so young started having issues, he wanted to postpone the wedding because he got a job touring with a singer and me with my bad temper told him i was done we needed a break. I knew he would come back and i was right a few months later he came back and re-proposed. My mom was worried about me because i was not upset then she realized that i knew he would come back.

    I think it depends on your situation. H kinda proposed when we were REALLY young and asked me if I'd marry him when we were older. He knew I expected a proper proposal later on, so he proposed 4 years later. but we considered ourselves engaged from the first proposal. we were still togehter the whole time, just waiting til the time was right for an official engagement.

    I've never understood the point of even one formal proposal, if you've talked and agreed you are getting married, so I certainly don't understand the point of two.

    Depends on the situation if he proposed you broke up and time has elapsed then yes he should re-propose just cause you get back together doesn't automatically mean you still want to get married like before. If it is a small break from each other then no re-propsal should not be needed.

    Happened to us! We got engaged then a quick JOP marriage. We were to have a Christian wedding within a year but things went downhill. 3 years later we divorced, got engaged AGAIN a year later and decided to remarry right away again. And immediately started planning for God's blessing. People will definitely comment and eye roll in front and behind your back. But who cares?!! If you let someone get away over people's opinions and thoughts , then you didn't want it bad enough.
