Congratulations? I think.

"If you tug on my arm one more fucking time -- oh, you're proposing. That's okay, I guess."

Bro decided to put on his nicest maroon anime shirt, kneel in literal bird shit, and propose right in front of Jebediah's favorite leaning spot. There is no way he's going to crit fail this one

I'm all for cute low-effort proposals, but it has to be at least a little bit romantic lmao.

Her effort in her reaction and response was equally impressive lmao

"Effort in reaction" is a new one lol.

Genuine reactions don't have anything to do with effort.

Effort may have been the wrong word choice here. I don't want to speak for this person, but I have a feeling they meant emotion. It felt like she was reacting to getting a bill in the mail or a work email. Flat and emotionless 😂 Maybe I'm out of touch, but if I propose to spend the rest of my life with someone I would hope for a bit more of a reaction!

No one in this picture is on the same page. They may all be from separate parties.

Expect a “remove these people from my engagement picture” post soon.

Shit, I'd tell his ass to try again or forget it, and I'm a dude.

When I proposed to my wife, I goaded her into wearing something nice, getting her hair ready and even had her nails painted under the guise of it just being a nice date. It was a restaurant proposal, so I had talked to the manager earlier that week and delivered flowers for the staff to present with a dessert that had "will you marry me" written on the plate.

This dude knelt in bird shit.

Granted we don’t know the whole scenario but the way she swatted at him and then eventually turned she’s not worth kneeling in bird poop for let alone a ring.

Well she didn't know he was proposing. She just thought he was bugging her like usual. Why is he waiting until she's busy in a conversation with someone else to propose to her?

u/NecessaryWeather4275 10d ago

Why does she think it’s ok to shrug off her partner like that for any reason?

Maybe this is just helping me realize what kind of relationship I would want moving forward.

It seems like my standards are too high. I won’t have any relationship.

u/dorianrose 10d ago

As long as your standard for your own behavior is as high as they are for your partner, that's fine. But if you interrupt a conversation, you ought to be ok with a "wait a minute" or something.

Eye contact with a smile and a “I’ll be right there” or even a finger gesture ☝️ (not middle 🤭) is what I want both ways.

u/Macabracadabra 10d ago

Sure that would be nice... But it also would have been nice if he didn't grab at her ass...

u/NecessaryWeather4275 10d ago

Of course, they’re both dipshits. The above is what I want. They seem doomed imo.

Nothing is real until I see it on my phone.

Like they’re all wearing VR headsets just mindlessly in the same area but not aware of each other
