If a man asks a woman to marry him and still doesn't trust her or still doesn't really know her then he's an idiot.
You don't ask someone to marry you unless you really love them, care about them, have established a solid relationship with them and know that you want to spend the rest of your life with them.

I wouldn't even say 'yes' to a man if he was still basically a stranger. Nor would I marry him if he didn't trust me and felt that he suddenly had reason, or the right, to interrogate me.

Aside from that, normally when you're in touch & dating for a while these kind of things come up by themselves. In a natural way, not by someone demanding answers.

Maybe it's a generational difference, can also be a cultural difference.
To me how you portray things and what you seem to find normal feels very rigid and very mental, totally not from the heart.
I'm not into a calculated mental relationship. I want a love relationship with bonding on all levels.
Some of these levels (I believe there are 4 or 5) are emotional, spiritual, mental.

well to me I suggest knowing each other very well before going in to marriage is the best like asking some questions and getting to know each other better

IMO


If a Man is asking a Women to marry him I think he has a right to ask personal question as to what is important to him! ....


So if a man decides he wants to propose it would mean a woman has to tell him everything he wants/demands to know???

No offense, but what century are you living in?

Him deciding to propose does not suddenly make the woman subservient. It does not give him the right to demand anything.

And what I'm missing in the picture you paint: where and when does the man tell the woman about his history?
Why he divorced, how long he's been single, how many women he had sex with over the years, how often he dated and so on.

I as a woman find that important to know.
I don't want a man who's a relationship-hopper, or who's had a gazillion one night stands, nor a serial-dater. Also not interested in a man who's never been married.

Where's the part in your picture where the man opens up about his past dating/relationship behaviour?

Or do you think it's okay for a woman to have to tell him intimate stuff and marry him without knowing what he's been doing?

The thought that a woman has to justify how many different (sex) partners she's had is really extremely old-fashioned!

I as a woman don't want a man-wh*re nor a commitment-phobe.

Get with the times. It's 2025, not 1725!
