Simple check on Google would have given you the meaning of propose and that would have save you from this embarrassing post of yours.
The man is 100% correct. Since you don't understand the word propose, let me tell you in simple language what the man said.
Stop introducing people who have not make their intention to marry you to your parents. Simple as that. Propose in relationship means, telling a woman that you intend to spend the rest of your life with her.

Haha..

Proposing is it our culture?

you are the gullible fooool. What that clergy man has said is the bitter truth. Just that you are one of those who for no reason take delight in abusing clergymen. Riffraff

Ok

Mynd44:
Wait, are you not supposed two ask for permission from the parents first?

What kind of thing is this?

permission to knack abi permission to propose to her? Because even if you go to her parents the girls parents will still ask if she has accepted to marry the guy. So propose b4 seeing the parents.

Some of us whose parents already disapproved of the relationship even before seeing the person should now do what Omo confusion dey this world no be lie.

LMAO. Funny pastor. Na why I no dey take relationships serious. Guys, double date no bad, according to this pastor. You fit dey follow as many ladies as possible, she is also allowed to do so. When una marry, you continue from where you stop. Mad pastor

teeste:
Pastor , stop confusing them.
If a man is asking you out, inform your parents. Pray about it, if okay, tell him to come with his folks to see your parents. That's how to go about it!

No! wrong approach. Most men asking a lady out these days just want to chop and clean mouth not that they are ready for marriage. A lady should tell a man to come see her parents ONLY if he has shown commitment and ready to marry her by proposing. So simple.

Esthered:
My mum used to ask to know my boyfriend and I didn't take anyone to her but she said it was for security reasons primarily amongst others.
The one I took to her now my husband was after proposal and we met our parents same day.....

That's how it ought to be.

spiceadole:
As long as you are not sleeping with anybody, you can have as many dates as you have time for.

Feel free.
Meet people.. interact.. make friends.
Keep your boundary.
A serious man will propose and meet your parents.

God bless you for this reasonable comment.

That's my Pastor. Gateway International Church.

Emir8:
What of if you proposed and the parents say no. You have to seek the consent of the parents before proposing. This pastor is a fake one. Foolish talk

nooo. You are not seeking the parents consent bfor proposing. It's you and their daughter dt wil agree or not.

we all are raised from diff homes. each family/home we come from have their own principles and values they choose to adopt or follow or the way they do their thing.
For a conservative(strict) kind of family,the pastors opinion maybe right for such type of family as it applies to the way they do things. so dt the family will know who their daughter is attached to. more like security reason and a sense of commitment nd seriousness on d man's side. Dou you can stil take an intendin marriage partner home wit d above reason in mind nd after proposal, it may not still lead to marriage.

While in a liberal(warm and jolly kinda)family, the pastors opinion may not necessarily count. The gal may take the man home as her guy even bfor proposal. since she knows nd understands how her family relate well with visitors.they may welcome the man as human first and as a frnd to their daughter nd may nt necessarily dig deep to ask their daughter if d man Hz propose or not.

They are some ladies dt even invite the guy home even bfor proposal.

The kind of family is wat in most cases determine ow the order should be.

He's correct

Why would you take a man that has not told you he wants to marry you to your parents?

If he has not declared his intentions of marriage then there's no point introducing him.

You want to introduce boyfriend or someone who asked you out for lunch repeatedly?

plenty confusion.

What if he hasn't proposed and the parents ask to know her fiance?

Munzy14:

You're right.
Very dicey as my parents could have said no, we don't want you... and then I question the essence of taking him to them but he wanted to show commitment. Upon meeting our parents, we started courtship officially. We started talking in October as we knew each other from school but weren't friends, met parents in January, introduction May and wedding December.
Good afternoon sir.

Thank God your parents approved from both sides..They seem to be liberal people.

To me I don't see the need taking my gf to my parents, except if she is the chosen one, though my parents will love to...

As for meeting her parents I feel it is not necessary except if We are moving to the next phase which is fiance/finacee then marriage.

I dated a lady whose people were not happy I didn't come around to say hi and Introduce myself...Even when I visit and spend days with their sister coming giving excuse to come be with me..

Well after a while that relationship didn't progress, but opened my eye to know more about how some families will love to see who is dating their daughter....I also learnt some mothers are extremely curious to know the man in their daughter's life.

I also learnt parents use style to state the type of DIL or SIL they will love to have..Such things must be a coded guide in choosing the one.

Good afternoon!

He's wasting his time advising women.
In fact, some of his ushers will end up in the beds of their boyfriends immediately after that same power packed service.
Some will continue to send nudess even after that powerful message.
