Marriage proposals can be ridiculous and standoffish sometimes, as we can witness and conclude in Anton Chekov’s play “Marriage Proposals.” Regrettably, our society lives in a time when marriage is more fixed on photographs or materialistic items, than about affection and consideration. Furthermore, nowadays, marriage is more of a man’s responsibility in which rings, where the proposal will be, and making it all look nice for photos instead of it feeling heartfelt from what the lady likes. I believe that communication is crucial in any relationship, and that marriage should be explored initially, with the pair deciding how to propose. He demonstrates how, regardless their arguments or circumstances, individuals would rather not hash out their differences and put it behind them to be proposed to. Marriage proposals are not antiquated in my opinion, but many people in today’s youth believe they are dumb and unneeded. A conventional proposal is not an unpleasant act in my opinion and should never happen in the world today. Many individuals consider it a beautiful gesture or a noteworthy event in a partnership. Some disagree those conventional ideas are pointless and ineffectual. However, it’s great that people could interact and debate it with respective spouses and find a solution that works for both companions. Marriage proposals are still common today. Everyone has their own idea of the ultimate proposal.

Hello Angelica
I like your argument. To add to your materialistic argument, I think some people would not consider a proposal complete without taking a photograph, which is sad. I believe that a proposal should be genuine and it should not be overshadowed by such things.
hey angelica! Loved your comment! and i feel like we have the same point of view of seeing things.
Hi Angelica! I couldn’t agree more, people today are sometimes more worried about how the proposal looks rather than how the marriage is going to look. The priorities are all wrong.
