Not To Ruin The Surprise, But You’re Going To Get Proposed To Today
LatestAccording to a survey of 7,000 people in the UK, Christmas Eve is the most popular day for marriage proposals, which makes a lot of sense as a matter of romance and convenience. The holidays make us all romantic and dreamy, and in addition, we’re already meeting up with family, so we can share the news. It’s a win-win situation!
Valentine’s Day came at a close second because apparently being assailed by commodified tokens of love has given couples a bleak enough outlook on society to know they’re probably better off weathering the storm together—a strength in numbers thing. (Valentine’s Day, maybe you can be number one when you drum up a hit holiday anthem crooned by the incomparable Mariah Carey. Just a pointer.) Interestingly enough, more women prefer a Valentine’s Day proposal to a Christmas Eve one, although popping the question on the anniversary of getting together is also pretty popular.
