The actor admired Dahl throughout his younger years and was thrilled when she attended the premiere of Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix in 2007.
Speaking to the Daily Express, 19-year-old Radcliffe explained: "She was at the fifth film premiere and kissed me on the cheek. I turned round to her and said: 'Thank you, because you've given me closure on my adolescent years'."
He added: "I got a note from her congratulating me on how I'd presented an award at the BAFTAs. I think we know what that means - she wants to marry me!"
Dahl started dating jazz singer Jamie Cullum in March 2007 after they performed at a charity event together. The pair are now engaged.
Radcliffe's new movie Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince will be released on Wednesday.
