Engagement Rings – The Leap Year Challenge
Engagement rings are traditionally offered up by the blokes when they pop the question, but leap years offer ladies a chance to turn the tables.
Tradition dictates that the man does the asking when it comes to popping the question. Proposing marriage is a nerve-wracking, if joyous thing. Conventionally, the men dig out a ring of their loved one to find out the ring measurements before shopping for the all important engagement rings. But on leap years on February 29, all that changes – it's the one day in the calender that ladies are expected to whisk out the engagement rings and propose marriage to their men.
Engagement Rings at the Ready
Because it's only one day in the calender, women who decide to invest in engagement rings and take matters into their own hands will have high expectations. Proposing marriage is always a dramatic moment, often thought-through and well-planned – and never more so than on February 29. But what if you're a man dreading February 29 because he fears his partner will whisk out the engagement rings? Or if you're a woman worried that her fella is desperately expecting a proposal?
Engagement Rings and Avoiding the Question
Not all men are ready for commitment when their partners are. And for those scared their girlfriends are all armed with engagement rings on February 29, there are a few things you can do to avoid the unwanted scenario of being proposed to, only to say 'no'. Engagement rings are expensive and married life a huge commitment – so don't feel pressured into saying yes because you're scared to hurt her feelings. There are some simple evasion techniques that can be deployed on the day.
- invited for dinner, simply refuse to go.
- If you sense a conversation is turning romantic or leading up to a big moment, it's wise to hijack the moment before the engagement rings are whisked out and there's no going back. Say something incredibly unromantic that you know she'd hate.
- As well as dinner, avoid the obvious indicators such as last minute trips to romantic destinations.
- If a bottle of champagne appears, there could be engagement rings not far behind. You can always say you're not feeling well and make your excuses.
