Hiding your proposal intentions can add an element of surprise and excitement to the moment you pop the question. Here are a few tips on how to keep your plans a secret:
- Choose a decoy activity. Plan an activity that will give you a plausible reason for being in a romantic setting, such as a picnic, a hike, or a visit to a museum.
- Be secretive about your shopping. If you need to buy a ring or other gifts, do so discreetly. Avoid using your shared credit card or shopping at stores that your partner frequents.
- Enlist the help of friends or family. Ask a trusted friend or family member to help you with the proposal. They can help you choose a location, set up decorations, or even distract your partner while you get ready.
- Practice your proposal. Make sure you know exactly what you want to say and how you want to say it. This will help you stay calm and confident when the moment comes.
