Just the Two of You
-
Any time the two of you are alone poses the opportunity for a proposal. For many guys, building the courage to ask such a life-altering question takes time and when the moment hits them you could likely be driving down the road or shopping in the mall. Prepare yourself for your surprise reaction if he plans to take you out to dinner in a nice restaurant, or if you happen to notice a picnic basket in the back seat of his car. These are perfect clues that he has more than a meal on his mind.
A Family Affair
-
With the support of friends and family, your guy will easily be able to summon up the courage to get down on one knee. If the topic of marriage has been circulating, then get yourself ready for a big surprise during the next family barbecue, birthday party or wedding. These are all great opportunities for a proposal and come with a built-in audience to witness the big event.

Vacation Getaway
-
Nothing sets the stage for a perfect proposal like a vacation away from the regular daily routine. Your guy could want the perfect backdrop for this momentous occasion, so be prepared if he suggests a vacation to the beach or recommends the two of you spend a weekend in a private cabin. These types of romantic settings are always a solid clue that he's ready to take the plunge into married life.
Expect the Unexpected
-
The idea of a perfect proposal is one that comes as a bit of a surprise. Don't be so concerned about making sure that you're wearing the perfect outfit or that your hair is done just right. Instead, focus your attention to the thing that is most important: the man you want to spend the rest of your life with. Proposals can come at the most unexpected moments and one of the greatest things is not knowing when it will actually happen. Expect that your guy will ask you to marry him when you are least expecting it and enjoy every moment of it.
