Horta How do Somali Guys Propose to their Girl

[caburiye1]

I have been married but I did not propose at all. It seems like, We were talking about marriage the first day we met. The Question that I raised was, Goorma ayaan kadhiganaah nikaaxa. I am not sure if that is meant to be a proposal. I was not expecting her to Say yes but just gues a date. Cadaanka are going crazy with Proposals.

So how do Somalis Propose?

[SelfD]

I think they all do what u did
I dont think id be pleased with over the top-bended knee spectacle that caadan ppl make. I soon as a i see a farax going down on his knee infront of ppl imma start running.
My affairs will stay private

So basically, Somali guys do not propose but Negotiate a wedding terms correct? The technique that somali girls use nowadays to put marriage into the guys mind is, You don't know what you want out of this relationship. If you say, ofcourse I want us to love each other and continue with what we have, She would say bull shit. Waqtiga igadhuminaysaah. In otherwords, She is proposing correct?

I took her out to eat at our favorite restauraunt. As soon as we finished eating, we went for a stroll along the beachside. Holding hands, I stopped and looked her in her yes and said, "Halimo, my darling, would you marry me ?" She looked puzzled and smiled before saying yes. Her family where a bunch of nutjobs and I got flack from them.

Her is how it happens most of the time:
Boy: I am so desperate to bang you.
Girl: You can bang me by Halal marriage.
Bingo.

A friend of mine once told me...he knew the.girl he was gonna marry the day he was really ill and she was washing his clothes...making food for him...and cleaning up after him...he saw how much she cared about him and right there and then....he said "I want to marry you, would you be okay with that" those were his words...not all Somalis start talking about the marriage thing one month into the relationship. This couple were together for two years

are you talking the past in nomad life styles or now?

now somalis are not in same culture. depends one's culture and tradition/religion life style.

my self i would sent my womenfolks to her womenfolks and check it out, then they talk their menfolks.... that is how we marry.

Maxaa kawadaah my womenfolks talks to her womenfolks. What do women got to do with marriage arrangements? Ma hooyo iyo abaayo ayaa gabadha kuudoonaya? I thought women would not agree on anything unless they are related. I almost had my habaryar and My brides's eedo fight in the wedding when they were arranging xaflada. One said something about the girl being more educated than me and My habaryar said she is uglier than the boy and that you guys got the better deal. It almost led to a whole Her Eedos Vs my Habaryaros into war. Even there had to be a big mediation just to make sure there would be no war at that night in the hall. Luckily, There was My hooyo's habaryar who was Mareexaan and she kind of acted as the liasom between Sacad Women Vs Dhulbahante Women.

I will send her a Xaliimo who does Ciilaan (Henna) art so that she can decorate and tattoo her right hand with 'will you marry me'?
I will wait for her phone call after with an answer.
