There’s a time in everyone’s life where superheroes are the thing. Whether you prefer The Avengers or The Justice League, or a different type of hero, there’s no denying that this can be another fetish. I mean, if you’re not dreaming of a knight in shining armor riding in and saving the day, you could be thinking about a superhero catching you as you fall to your peril, couldn’t you?
Contrary to what you may be thinking, I’m not suggesting that you have to dress up to get away with a proposal like this. Here are 3 ideas… and only one involves costumes, I promise!
1. Make a comic book. If you’re not an artist, find a friend who is! Put together a comic book project, no matter how small, to help you propose. This way you can make both of you into superheroes. After all, Mr. Incredible needed his Mrs. Incredible, am I right?
2. Be in disguise. If your girl has a Lois Lane obsession and works in journalism, please show up at the office and unbutton your shirt to reveal a superman shirt underneath. Ask her if you can be her superman and get down on one knee. If Superman isn’t her favorite, you can surprise her in some sort of fashion dressed as whoever is her favorite. If this is a thing, there’s no way she’ll say no. Just don’t go hanging upside down off a wall unless you know you can do so safely!
3. Movie Night. Unless your favorite doesn’t have a featured film, you can’t go wrong with movie marathons. You could go so far as to rent out a movie theatre to show her favorite movie, and create a preview trailer with you taking part in the film for your proposal. Does she love Captain America? Watch the first movie, go see the second, and then watch The Avengers! You could go the extra mile and dress up in uniform, and it could just be the 1940s dress uniform, you don’t have to have an “A” on a helmet for this one!
If all else fails, take a lesson from this guy. Not only does his fiance have a ring, but she has something that will remind her of his proposal for the rest of time. Any Iron Man fans here?
