Hello friends today we are discuss this question, the question is -Why did not Lomov directly ask Natalya to marry him?
Lomov went to Chubukov’s house to ask Natalya’s hand in marriage. But Lomov became nervous when he saw her. He somehow gained courage to ask her, but suddenly they started to argue over the ownership of the Oxen Meadows. After a while the quarrel stopped but again they started fighting over their dogs, without speaking a word about the marriage. This made Lomov overexcited and he started palpitating. Therefore, because of the arguments they had, Lomov could not directly ask Natalya to marry him.
