You shouldn't propose when you're under significant pressure from external sources, or if you feel it's an obligation rather than a desire. Avoid proposing too early in a relationship, before you've both discussed your future goals and values. Critical moments, like amidst personal crises or significant life changes, are also inadvisable times, as the decision should be made with clarity and mutual enthusiasm, not as a means to solve problems or during a period of intense emotional turmoil.
