· | Play Santa Ask a local department store to let you play Santa for a day. Have your girlfriend's friends take her to the mall and convince her to sit on Santa's lap. Once she arrives, give her the ultimate Christmas gift. |
· | Make Every Day Count Make an advent calendar and have a sentimental memory or reason you love her behind each door. Hide your proposal behind December 25. If you're Jewish, apply this idea to Hanukkah gifts, with each day building up to the most important gift of all. |
· | Spell It Out Write out your proposal in Christmas lights on your house or with rose petals in the snow. |
· | Count Down If you're at a party, work your proposal into the crowd's big countdown to the New Year. Right before everyone starts screaming, "10, 9, 8..." say "I want to tell you why I love you so much." After each number is called, quickly tell your sweetie a reason. When New Year arrives and everyone is hooting and hollering, simply whisper "Will You Marry Me?" |
· | Enlist Help Attach plastic antlers and a red nose to your dog. Put the ring on a ribbon around the dog's neck and send the mutt to wake your mate. |
