Ivan Vassilievich Lomov’s character in Anton Chekhov’s A Marriage Proposal(also titled The Proposal in some English translations) is fundamentally a comic one. In the play, he is seen attempting to work up his nerve to propose to Natalia, his neighbor's daughter. They are not well-acquainted, despite being neighbors.

Lomov is 35 years old, and a nervous hypochondriac, who is socially awkward and prone to anxiety attacks. As is gradually revealed over the course of the play, he is not particularly romantic, and his proposal has more to do with the economic advantages of of combining their families' adjacent properties than with any particular degree of love of Natalia or desire to get married. His efforts to actually propose keep on getting derailed as he and Natalia get in various arguments, but with some help from her father, and despite a major panic attack, he does successfully succeed in proposing and the proposal is accepted.
