A young Nigerian lady has made a courageous move by publicly proposing to her long-term boyfriend after several years of dating. The heartwarming incident has garnered significant attention on social media, with trending photos capturing the unforgettable moment.
In the viral photos, the lady can be seen going down on both knees as she expresses her love and pops the question to her partner. The genuine display of affection has received praise from numerous Nigerians, who admire her bravery and willingness to break traditional gender norms.
While many people commend the lady for her boldness, there are some netizens who argue that proposing should remain the man's responsibility, regardless of the length of the relationship. They maintain that it is not the woman's role to initiate such a significant milestone.
Afam BuNzube shared his perspective, stating, "Many women are ready to do this. In fact, many of them were the ones who initiated their relationships, but societal expectations prevent them from openly discussing it. Nevertheless, it's an encouraging sight to witness."
Elijah Jnr offered his response, saying, "While men may be seen as the prize, if I were in her position, I would have accepted the ring and reciprocated the engagement. Every situation is unique."
Ebenezer Ibekwe expressed his admiration, stating, "She exudes a sense of pride in embracing her femininity wholeheartedly."
ASA Bathsheba commented, "If women are given the opportunity to propose to men, it is believed that there will be no single man left without a partner."
Maazi Usuwa humorously added, "Veronica, when will you propose to me? We've been dating for 12 years! Look at what your contemporaries are doing.😭😭🙆."
