once, in my two year in college by my horrible ex. boyfriend, he told me that once we got married, i had to drop school.
after that day, i pawned the ring
( i worked to hard to get where i am now, and i will be damned if someones try to stop me.)

One time Exactly one year and one week ago
Just once, but I told him no. I didn't think getting engaged just because I was moving for school and it would show a bond was a great idea at 19
Aren't you married now?
Nope, we just live together and I don't have a ring
Ah ok! I guess I just assumed!

NONE and not planning on it
None yet!!!!!! However, when my SO gets a little tipsy he gets a little crazy....he'll tell me over and over that he loves me and wants to marry me. He even says, if I asked you to marry me right now what would you say? Then I say "you know what I'll say"........."You'll say no, not until we live on the farm".......... "That's right baby. Love you!"

Seven. Three each from 2 different men, and once from DH, which I DID accept!

I'm glad that you could see through those guys, and get on with your life. One of my proposals (actually 3 out of the 7) was from a man who I thought was the love of my life. We were together for 2 years. At the time, I put up with his emotional flakiness, really abuse, and verbal abuse. I guess, since he didn't use profanity, he thought he could justify it, but it was abusive nonetheless. He played mind games on me (and it was a long-distance relationship). One night, when I was visiting his house, he got physically abusive, when I told him (nicely) that it was over. I really, after 2 years of thinking it over, just couldn't move there to marry him, and leave my family; as I couldn't see it working out. I got out of there--and NEVER had ANY contact with him again, even though it broke my heart. It really soured me on dating for awhile!
Once for me, by my DH
Once for me. 12:00 am Jan 1, 2004. He dropped to one knee in the middle of the dance floor right after the countdown!
Still happily together....

I can remember three times.
The first from a guy that I caught cheating on me, and he later married the girl he was cheating with--they now have two kids and are now getting a divorce. His abusive ways drove her to alcoholism. Glad I passed that one! The second was from a guy that I was with for 8 months, until he cheated. The third was from the husband I am currently divorcing because he also cheated. I sure know how to pick the winners!

Hrmn... well once by my ex. Accepting was a bad thing. But I have been proposed to many many times by a very good (and need I say very drunk) friend of mine. I don't think that counts though!
I love him to death - but not THAT much!!
Officially 0 but I am married.
I was pregnant, my (now) husband was talking about going to the justice of the peace and said "I guess that is my way of asking". He did not ask, I did not say yes, and we had a wedding about 4 1/2 years ago.

Officially, once, 27 years ago. We're still married.
Unofficially, once, when I was about 18. Had enough sense to pretend I didn't know what he was talking about (even though he was a total hottie, and I was enamoured, he was a compulsive gambler. Even at 18, I wasn't a fool).

I have been proposed to once by my husband.
Once, when I was 16. Told him I couldn't get married because my mom wouldn't sign papers. I didn't want to marry anyway - thanks mom! He turned out to be a total scum. Whew!
Another guy, we talked about marriage a bit but turned out breaking up was for the best. He was emotionally abusive. After he pushed me down the stairs, I finally realized how wrong it all was. Because it was verbal abuse, I didn't take it seriously. Physical - that I understood. God, that was an awful time. Only time I have ever hit another person in anger. I truly thought I was losing my mind for a year or so. UGH. No wonder I'm single
