With Valentine's around the corner and Cupid aiming his arrows at unsuspecting couples, love is in the air - which could lead to that little question running across the minds of lovers: "Will he/she pop THE question?"
"I hope that he doesn't ask me, but you never know," said Jen Roberson, a mass communications major. She would like to go somewhere romantic and sweet for their date. "But we'll probably go somewhere cheesy," Roberson said.
Even the cheapest and simplest person can set the mood for a romantic date. According to www.loveyou.com, Valentine's Day is the No. 1 day to get asked the big question.
Jenny Smith, a broadcast sales and marketing major, said she hopes for something "out of the ordinary and spontaneous" from her boyfriend.
"We've talked about getting married before, but I don't see it happening soon," she said. "We want to wait 'til after we graduate."
According to Tim Heaton of the Rocky Mountain Family Council, who has done research on the subject of young marriages, "Teenagers are much less stable and successful in marriage on the average compared to first marriages of persons in their 20s."
"I think that this Valentine's Day will be a great one," said Crystal Pembry, a special education major.
"If I could only make him ask me on the 14th, that would be the perfect way to ask.
"I just don't think that'll happen this year, though, but you never know."
