Have you ever been proposed and you thought it was a joke?

I've been friends with this guy since I was 21. We talked a lot on and off, he had a great sense of humor and always made me laugh a lot and I often joked with him too, he had a great sense of humor so I started seeing everything he said as a joke. We talked about some deep topics and he supported me a lot after my break up, and then one day he proposed to me and I laughed cause I thought it was a joke. He was upset. He then told me he has dated a lot of women and always compares them to me and believes that we are each other's fate and that we get along great and he even loves it that I am silly at times and a bit childlike, he says I am his muse and he has been hurt a lot when I didn't take him seriously and that by now he'd be gone for a long time, if not my childlike honesty and naivety, which makes him think, I've not done things to hurt him, but rather out of not exactly understanding him.
