We've been together for 1mth and a half and its seems as though she completes me. She's always been there when i needed her. And now i realize she's the one for me.

I am sure you should listen to the ladies on this one, as they can give you the woman's perspective.
However, don't let them con you into believing you don't feel what you feel. A lot depends on where you are with your life. I was 33 when I met my wife, and established in my career. I knew in 6 weeks that she was the one I wanted to marry. And, I let her know that in no uncertain terms. However, we were to be separated by the Atlantic for a year, so I didn't propose to her until the following year after an epistilatory romance. We eloped 12 days later in Salzburg and have been very happily married since.
You feel what you feel, You don't know how she feels. I wouldn't waste money on a promise ring -- save it for the real one. But perhaps you can put your feelings into a letter and let her digest it when you are not there. A simple note sent with flowers telling her how much she means to you, but that you will wait for her to determine the next step. And then, WAIT for her. She may need some time (or not). If you are adult enough to want to get married, then you are ready to understand that not everything is going to go your way; nor hers -- there must be compromise. But if you are a man of your word, and you let her make the next move without demanding that she be ready now, you may discover that you are not alone.

Congratulations. Isn't funny how you just know you have found the right one. I met my husband on April 5 and married him on Aug. 7. In 1970. So even though you have not known your girl friend a long time you can know how you feel. I would not propose quite yet if you haven't told her you love her. Take one step at a time. Tell her how you feel. If she feels the same way she will be able to tell you at that time. If she does and with Christmas not far away you will know what to get her. Give her an engagement ring on Christmas Eve when it is just the two of you. A little candle light, a private dinner, a little wine make it real romantic and memorable. Good luck and I hope you have what my husband and I have had, many wonderful years together.

Are you sure this is the one for you? A month and a half is not a very long time to know someone. If you're absolutely sure she's the one then tell her just that. Tell her you love her and want to spend the rest of your life with her.
But be very, very sure. Marriage is a serious step. It doesn't always turn out right under the best circumstances. Think long and hard before you jump into something and end up regretting it later.

Too soon. I've been with my guy for 2 mnths and just found out today he's a lying cheater. I felt like he was soooo great until this morning. Besides that, no one can "complete you". You have to complete yourself and let her add onto who you are as a person. I know everything is all lovey dovey now, but that phase ends soon. She may not feel the way you do. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's DEFINATELY unlikely that she'll be open to a proposal. Either way, good luck!

I think a month and a half is a little soon to propose. I would bring up the topic of marriage and see how she feels about that. My hubby and I were ring shopping by our 6 month anniversary. I would make sure this is something she is ready for before you ask, you don't want to scare her.

Come one dude! Its been a month and a half !!!! Do you want to scare her?
Okay look. .... Keep these thoughts to yourself. Im sure you guys havent even had a really huge fight yet to test that so called love that you are feeling.
Dont rush things! Love takes a little time. Hold out at least for another few months! !!

It is traditional for the man to propose in a suit, down on one knee, with a diamond ring in hand at a dinner for both families.
Good luck!

Dont rush into the idea of marriage, go another 6 to 12 months and if you still like the idea, you should have saved enough money to make her knees buckle under the weight of the ring you offer her when you propose.

You could get down on one knee and propose
but you have only been together for 6 weeks? i would say tell her exactly what you told us, and see how she responds. 6 weeks is a little early for a proposal, but there is nothing wrong with talking about marriage.

a month and a half is not enough time to know each other.just enjoy her company for a while and then think about it again if she's the one....If you're really sure to yourself that she's the one who wants you to spend your life then propose her a marriage..gud luck
