I know everything about my boyfriend proposing to me this month, including the ring, when, where, etc, and I'm really excited and happy about it, but I feel like I've taken some of the fun out of it for him by knowing all the details.So guys how important is it that the proposal is a surprise? Does it even matter? Reply to this Question

 I proposed to an ex and she knew all about it. She even helped prepare her dad for my asking for his blessing. But we had been talking about it for a year and a half by then, so the only surprise was when. It worked for us, and there were still tears when it happened.

 Never mattered to me. Some people are just more theatrical than others. Some people unwrap their presents before Christmas. They don't need to be surprised to be happy. Obviously your guy knows that you don't need this and would rather be involved than surprised. It's a good sign that he is willing to do it your way.

Why steal his thunder? Pretend you don't know. Cry when he proposes and give him the longest kiss ever. He'll remember the day all his life. Since you already know, the fun is already spoilt for you. At least let him have some fun.
