TV Marriage Proposals

     I had to blog about this article because I think it is simply ridiculous.  ABC is inviting viewers to submit their 100-word love story online for a chance to win a nationally televised marriage proposal.  Two "lucky" couples will be able to share their proposal during a commercial break of ABC's The Bachelor.  The event is part of a "Marry Me Monday" promotion that is brought to you by Jared the Galleria of Jewelry.  The deadline for the essay is December 27th and the episode will air January 31st or February 7th. 
    This article is silly and just makes me want to shake my head at our culture.  A proposal should be an intimate and special moment between the two people involved.  It isn't meant to be made into a big spectacle that is nationally televised.  I personally would be upset if some guy tried to propose on national television.  That is neither romantic nor intimate.
