I'm a little confused. You're going to propose to someone who doesn't know already that you have braces? Shouldnt you know a person before asking them to marry you??

Thanks KK for replying to jenns on my part :)

it's been a wait of 15 years that i finally got braces... also seeing improvements, and now i do not want to backtrack. I was in two minds though but you guys helped me to make the clear decision. I owe a big thanks to everyone :-#)

I hope you make a decision that makes you happy. Remember, if she doesn't like you because you are trying to improve yourself, you have bigger problems than bad teeth (or at least she does.)
