Should teenagers propose?

In Indian English, teenagers often talk of proposing to someone when they mean to ask someone out on a date or declare their fondness for that person.

Not so in standard English, where to propose (in the intransitive sense, i.e. when the verb doesn't have a direct object) only means 'to make an offer of marriage to someone'.
