You know, in hindsight I don't think I would have liked to have been asked. In my case it would never have been a problem because my SO would be the type to make stronger and stronger hints. That never happened. But given that the planning was doen by her and her mother, the asking and giving of a ring was the only part I had control over. I really enjoyed that part.
There something to be said for being chedder headed and in love.
