"When I will meet her, I will propose to her" structure?

I know that "When I meet her, I will propose to her" structure is right, but you never say, "When I will meet her, I will propose to her" structure? Or is there a different meaning or reason if we use the latter structure? Thank you so much as usual and have a good day.

Thank you, and then if someone says, "If I am proven rude, I will apologize to you.", the actual meaning of "If I am proven rude" is for the future, not for now, right? I have misunderstood these kinds of sentences for a long time if it is true. Please enlighten me again. Thank you so much.
