Who usually proposes? The Man or the Woman?

Like as far as weddings and marrying, who usually buys the rings and proposes? Does the man give the woman the ring? Or does the woman give the man the ring?

    It’s tradition for men, but I don’t see why women shouldn’t propose. The way I see it, why wait around when you can just ask yourself?

    In the modern era that can go either way. But marriage itself is kind of a traditional thing and as a traditional couple might want to do it the traditional way, I'd guess amongst those interested in getting married it's probably more often the guy who asks.

    Usually the man proposes.  

    In this day and age the couple should already have been taking about marriage, finances, budgeting. 

    My daughter and her husband set up a budget for the engagement ring and wedding bands before they were engaged.  His money and her money were already their money.  

    My niece proposed to her fiancé.   After he said yes, he popped out an engagement ring he had been carrying around for weeks.

    Many couple shop for rings together after they are engaged, 

    And some couples do not get an engagement ring at all. They have wedding bands.

    Traditionally, the man proposes. 

    These days - couples tend to choose this together, although there may be a 'technical' on-one-knee proposal for tradition

    Traditionally the man proposes and buys the engagement ring, but some times the couple goes shopping for rings together. Today there's no rules, the man or woman can propose. The man or woman can buy engagement rings and wedding rings.

    Hydrogen peroxide H2O2   kills nanoworms inside facemasks. The elite is faking that they took the real vaccine; the real vaccine will cause spiritual and physical damage. When will the official churches start praying for the false prophet? Orthodox Christian three hand signs are different than Buddhist mudras. Ecumenism = 263 heresies; each heresy leads to hell. Orthodoxy = the only true faith; Roman Catholics tried one cup - one spoon ritual and got sick with Bubonic plague; if heresy enters Orthodox monastery then monks/nuns will get sick with flu/tuberculosis (for instance); Orthodox churches who closed for COVID or had disposable cups/spoons or dipped spoon into alcohol are no longer brides of Christ (now they serve Satan and honor Satan's new COVID religion). Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good. SSN is written as a barcode/QRcode; then it's put into a chip; chip is put into vaccine; chipped people are influenced (by super computers) to receive grey plastic card World Passport with no name on it (but when they stretch their hands to get it, gov't clerk presses secret button to administer the unforgivable green 666 tattoo by isotope rays). If you reject mark of the beast (by hiding within a 10-15 people group according to saints Gabriel Urgebadze and Seraphim of Sarov), then your direct ancestors go to heaven (according to saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov from Ural). First vaccine shuts off your immune system; second vaccine gives you diseases; third vaccine puts your immune system back and it will start fighting the diseases and will cause death. Saint Paisios from Mount Athos said that the devil wants to deceive the rich with freemasonry, poor with communism, and believers with ecumenism. Elpidios Vagianakis said that there will be seven “mark of the beast” vaccines; reject all of them! Documents are from Satan; burn all the documents that you can find. Electronics will be used to track you. Even old broken unplugged 1970 TV set will show the evil flying antichrist using Tesla's ether. Don’t go into UFO to be “healed” by evil demons; demons never do good; always pray the Jesus prayer or to saints who help right away (like saint Vyacheslav Krasheninnikov according to whom if you reject mark of the beast, then your direct ancestors go to heaven); forgive me.

    Source(s): Money will be electronic. Gov't will say someone lost their card or it was stolen; now, they have "solution" aka "mark of the beast system"... because no one will steal your hand/forehead. Remember Book of Revelation says: mark of the beast = permanent hell; forgive me.
