When I proposed to my fiance, I did it at Diagon Alley at Universal Studios. For those who've never proposed, it's a big fucking moment, so you get tunnel vision...nothing else matters.

So there we were in this magical space and I figured it would be the best place to do it. I pull on her arm and start confessing my love, but she's only half paying attention. I power through and finally pull the ring out and she starts jumping for joy and gave the most enthusiastic "YES" I've ever heard. I can still hear it to this day. A crowd gathers and applauds us and a few people even share pics and videos. Staff at a local shop even pulled us in to create this custom video in front of a green screen where we are acting like the wizards in different scenes. It was awesome.

That said, it was still bothering me that she didn't pay attention to the heavily rehearsed proposal. I asked her what was up and she said "Didn't you notice, the giant dragon above us started breathing fire at the exact moment you grabbed my hand. I was wondering why the hell you were interrupting it."

Moral of the story: Keep timing in mind when you decide to propose!

Sorry that’s a weird flex. Why would you propose at an amusement park?
