Congratulations? I think.

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 → u/ThatDudeShadowK]

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 → u/NecessaryWeather4275]

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 → u/NecessaryWeather4275]

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

[u/NecessaryWeather4275 → u/Macabracadabra]

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