I have been dating my girlfriend for 3 years. I want to surprise her by proposing to her and being all fancy for our hangout soon, but I don’t want to move too fast. 3 years should be fine, right??

Anyway, I’ll tell you how it goes!!

Have you two talked about marriage before? Are your long-term goals compatible? I'm of the philosophy that totally spontaneous proposals generally aren't a great idea unless certain important things are already known.

If you have talked about those things, then yeah go for it.

A lot. We both want to move to possibly Japan together and get married. My family loves her and her family loves me.

I would not propose unless we talked about it, but she says often that she hopes we get married and that she wants to marry me.

That seems like a green light to me.
