A Laid-Back Proposal At Home She's the type who can do without the bells and whistles of a crazy, over-the-top proposal. This type of woman would prefer a quieter, more intimate proposal because she's a private person in general. A public proposal might embarrass her or make the moment not feel as romantic. Whip up a romantic dinner for two, turn down the lights and propose to her at a place she feels the most relaxed -- at home. You can also switch it up and propose to her at a spot that's important to the two of you, like the place you first met or had your first kiss. Find Your Perfect Proposal Idea
