Proposal sickness happens when you have written so many proposals for clients over a ridiculously short period of time (some of which are usually written over a weekend), any further requests for proposals that you are tasked with writing results in 'proposal sickness'.
This in turn leads to a rather angry disposition, which can sometimes end in furious swearing and avoid techniques which can include snack eating, spotify playlist making and mindless playing on Facebook...
Proposal sickness is like writers block but its more about the annoyance of too many proposals which can never be written during office hours, than a block on the words to write them with.

CK had written 5 proposals over the Valentine's weekend..and then proceeded to face further refinements to some of those proposals from clients on Monday and Tuesday...and so by Wednesday when faced with more new proposal writing, she experienced proposal sickness and just couldnt write any more.

When you have tried every other strategy to get that filthy blozzer you've been crying out for so your only last option is to get down on one knee and give your life away.

WHY
In a society where Engagement Proposals are heavily pressured for one sex to orchestrate a grand gesturing production to their significant other (S.O), the ‘PRE-PROPOSAL' acts as the antecedent event that can lead a couple to a successful, happy -and fair- relationship long term.
HOW
A Pre-Proposal occurs when one sex (often the female, or one who is expecting to be Proposed to) proclaims their love for their S.O, and also announces that they are primed and ready to receive a future Proposal.
Like it’s proceeding event, the Pre-Proposal CAN be an orchestrated production delivered to the S.O. Once the Pre-Proposal is presented (and accepted!), the receiving party has 365 days to appropriately reciprocate a Proposal.
Here are the following relationship benefits of practicing the Pre-Proposal:
1. One party alerting that their souls are ready for future potential engagement-acceptance.
2. Both parties enjoy the thrill, joy, stress, schemes, awesomeness of both delivering and receiving a pre/proposal plan.
3. Deterrence of unnecessary Proposal costs and/or embarrassment IF couples are not in relationship compatibility

Ie. Lateefa has known all along that she wanted to be married to John. Societal pressures have Lateefa unsure of WHEN and IF John will be proposing to her. Lateefa also feels like John should be shown how much he means to Lateefa. She prepares a moderately well schemed plan as Pre-Proposal to John, and with much success, John was so happy, moved, and proposedly-informed that he Proposed to Lateefa < 365 days later. #love
OMG She finally Pre-Proposed to him! He's got a year now to drum up something special back to her ;)
He/She’s locked up ever since XXX Pre-Proposed to them.
I was surprised at being Pre-Proposed to since I actually never liked XXX. Now we save X amount in time and money.
That Pre-Proposal was an incredible experience. I feel so loved by their gesture and can’t wait to surprise them with a Proposal of my own.

When a guy knows he has messed up so bad that his girlfriend might break up with him so he pops the question to hook her in deeper in hopes she won't leave him.
Girl, we all know that engagement is a panic proposal, they been together four years and he knows his side chick is pregnant.
That dick thought I didn't know about those other girls! Can you believe he tried a panic proposal when I told him we were done?!

'clarifying proposal' or 'defining resolution' or 'defining proposal' is a summary that is also used to reveal an underlying problem to an obfuscating author such as a conman without giving away awareness (by the victim) of the conman's scam.
I am an agent with a buyer who wishes to buy your property but we wish to carry out due diligence first so we offer a deposit whilst conveyancers are engaged. The con is that the agent takes a commission from the conveyancer then the purchase falls through. The seller does not wish to reveal their suspicion of the con so offers a 'clarifying proposal' being: instead of a deposit let the buyer pay all the seller's conveyancer fees.

Proposing marriage to your partner during a pandemic - often out of haste, panic or heightened emotions.

As Marie walked down the aisle to her soon-to-be husband, she could only blush when the memory of his slimy proposal replayed in her mind.
