How to get your Leo man to propose
April 13, 2007 by Jeffrey Kishner
Leos love being engaged: the glitzy rock; the bachelor(ette) parties; setting up the registry at Williams-Sonoma.
Granted, a Leo guy won’t be the one with the big conflict-free diamond on his finger, but he’ll be just as happy to be the one buying it. What Leo doesn’t like to give generously?
But he hasn’t made the jump, and you want to get him down on one knee to present you with a small velvet box. How to?
I’d normally suggest you reverse gender roles and propose to him, but your assertiveness in this matter may wound Leo’s pride. Dethroning the king will work against you. Instead, you must inspire him to express his whole-hearted devotion to you.
Fortunately for you, Leo has a big heart, and thrives on displays of affection. However, this extravagant sign does not pick up subtle clues well, so don’t waste your precious time being oblique. Rather, incessantly talk about your friends who are getting married; mention how nice a honeymoon in Greece would be; drag him to Tiffany’s and swoon over the pretty jewels. He’ll want to make you happy, if you don’t drive him crazy first.
If that doesn’t work, get pregnant. Leos love kids.

My leo made a grand splash. He took me to my favorite location and my favorite restaurant on the beach, then took me to ‘lovers point’ on the beach and got down on one knee and asked me to marry him.
But first he announced his intentions to all family members to get their permission and arranged a party when we arrived home.
It was romantic.
I actually wasnt expecting it. I wasnt really planning on him committing..lol. I was glad to live together in sin forever. lol
Sorry, I didnt read the question properly. I guess I was in a hurry to type..lol
Um.. my leo liked me for my differences. I was completely different than his family. I was blond, tall, thin, disobedient, couldnt cook, and completely outrageous. I was detached from material things and loved laughing.
heh, funny how 19 years later those things bug the hell out of him. LOL
“If that doesn’t work, get pregnant.” What kind of crap advice is this? Someone is obviously asking a heartfelt question. A little compassion wouldn’t hurt these blogs. Consider me unsubscribed.
I’m sorry to see you go, Anonymous. “How to get your Leo man to propose” was not a heartfelt — or otherwise — question directly asked of me.
Some of my posts are more light-hearted than others, and my sense of humor may either not translate well on the page, or not be appreciated by some readers.
I found the comment tongue in cheek. I wouldnt think that a psycologist would make that statement seriously..lol.
“If that doesn’t work, get pregnant.”
Our baby was born April 12 … does that mean he’s proposing soon? Doubt it – I’ve looked at our bank account. No money for a ring; it’s all going to daycare now!
“If that doesn’t work get pregnant”
Our baby was born March 20th
I have no expectations of my Leo ever proposing because he has already been married and is sure he wont get married again.
However, I had NO expectations of him ever wanting a baby but he is a jr and 4 months old haha!
My Leo is a great man and someday he may surprise me when my expectations are not there and it is a complete surprise.
I do enjoy this information because my leo and I are polar opposites and he is learning so many things from my aquarius intellect.
Leo & Leo
July 19th, 2009. Four days before my birthday July 23rd, my Leo man popped the question! We were approaching our fourth month of dating.
The question is not a matter of HOW TO get your leo to propose.
Make him want to propose to you! A proposal should not be forced or manipulated. It should be an act that he naturally becomes comfortable with doing.
My Leo Man took me on a hike overlooking an escarpement. You can see for miles from up there. He got down on one knee (shaking like a leaf) and asked. It was the cutest thing I have ever expierienced to date!
My response, “Absolutely!”
Wedding to take place, summer-fall 2011
Wow, after 4 months a ring? Nice… How did you make him WANT to propose you Della?
In my case, he told me he wanted to marry me on date, er, was it number 4? or 5? Don’t remember, because I didn’t really believe him at the time! That was one decisive man! We moved in together after dating for 3 months and did the formal engagement (with parents and all) in 7 months from our first meeting. Although we had been looking for rings together to get my taste in rings, I preferred it to be a surprise, so he bought me a lovely, very simple, but great quality ring which he gave me at a cafe, so even the lady at the counter and several other people had the opportunity to admire it and congratulate us (ah, yes, typical Leo show-off LOL). Now I wonder what’s in store for me for the wedding…
