Awww, LIB reader proposes to girlfriend, shares the romantic photos

LIB reader Oluwatosin Davies, the CEO Glavvac Constructions proposed to his banker girlfriend Aderonke Olumodeji (who is also a LIB reader) on Sunday June 22nd at the Palms in Lekki, Lagos. Tosin shares the story and photos from his romantic proposal. See all that after the cut. Congrats to them.
Tosin writes...

It was at the Palms Lekki... at the cinema floor, I made t shirts for my friends like 10 that wrote 'please marry my friend', I also made a t shirt for my brother that wrote 'please marry my brother'. Then I made t shirts for her niece and nephew even her niece that is just 8 months old that wrote 'aunty Kike please marry uncle Tosin'. Anyway so I planned with her big bro to bring her after church to the cinema saying they were going to watch a movie. So every one was ready. We all wore our t shirts as she climbed up the stairs she saw guys in white t shirt backing her and people were wondering. Wondering already taking pictures because they knew what was about to happen so she got interested, wanted to see what was happening that is making every one excited.... As she came closer, my friends parted ways like the red sea. Lol. 5 on each side and faced her and low and behold I was on my knees already with the ring all smiling but nervous I must confess. Anyway I popped the question asking her to marry me. I told her I saw in her the bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh that I will love to spend the rest of my life with her. After she yelled YES YES YES I put the lil diamond on it .. then I already made her own t shirt wich read I JUS GOT ENGAGED TO MY BOO. . So after she agreed I gave her to wear. Aint I romantic???? Lol

  29. Wonderful, to many ways to get to a girl.
    People see engagement as a big deal.
    Guys always proposing to girlz in front of the world and when they'll dump 'em, they do it privately, leaving the girl to grieve to death.
    What a world.

  84. And they say Nigerian men are not romantic?! If your idea of romance is running a man's account to the ground, then probably nigerian men are wise enough to know the difference between romance and suicide. Two days and two different romantic thoughtful proposals and they say Nigerian men are not romantic! Pfft!!!!

    ReplyDelete

  92. Dis is so romatic and nice,BUT it has its own negative part.let me share my girlfriend's story with her ex.they ve dated for over 1 year and then the guy organised a surprise BD party @ d beach with all his friends including family in attendance,to complete d surprised BD party he proposed 2 her wit a lovely gold ring and she accepted it,only for her 2 return it d next day evening.she explained 2 me she does not love the guy enough for marriage and she accepted d ring then becos she does not want the guy 2 feel embarrashemnt b4 his family and friends.today she is married. Congrates once again.

  110. What is with the current wave of emotional displays? I just don't get it. Would the love be less sweet if it is in private? Or do people just want to be in the news these days?

    ReplyDelete
  163. You definitely are romantic but hope you will continue to be romantic after you are married, when she's pregnant or when she delays (not willingly) in getting pregnant. Its not about thinking up d best, oscar winning method of proposal, it is how you treat her, her family and children afterwards, with loads of love, care, attention, patience and understanding. Make we no later hear " she dosnt want to get pregnant, she dosnt know how to cook, she comes home too late, she dosnt have time for me" blah, blah, blah. If I hear, oh sorry, if we hear ehn, the God of love and the God of all the people you took to shoprite will flog you one thousand strokes of bulala everyday.
    Thank you for being romantic and popping d question, pls don't break my sister's heart o!
