Is it true that if you bend down to tie your shoe laces on a bridge over a canal (especially in Paris), you will make your girlfriend cry?

[ThisDudeHere]

Why do girls cry over that? He's just tying his shoe, not cutting onions.

I did a google before opening your question and got the background - Poor girl was about to give her proposal acceptance speech she has been practising for years

That's NOT a canal, it's the Seine river

Here's the famous Canal Saint Martin in Paris:

It's much smaller

[Hollywood-Glam]

Oh I see, she thinks he is going to propose :smirk:
I guess it's not always true, for the girls who don't easily get emotional.

[Luci92]

Ahhh god, at least wait til he pulls out a little velvet box before you start crying!!

[BaileyisDarcy]

Because it's the same pose as a proposal. Basically just women jumping to conclusions.

[ThisDudeHere]

What should guys do in this case?

[BaileyisDarcy]

Just stop and say, I gotta tie my shoes, and probably put both knees down, not just one.

To be honest though, any girl who just starts crying because her guy got down on one knee? wow. Wait to see if he's ACTUALLY proposing before you let out the waterworks okay? He could just be tying his shoelace. No need to be presumptious.

[Shrooms]

But how can he tie his shoes if his BOTH knees are down?

[BaileyisDarcy]

@Shrooms Good point, my brain did not give me that problem when I picture that in my head XD

Just tell her you're tying your shoes, and if she isn't listening that's her own damn fault.

[ThisDudeHere]

Isn't it easier to just not jump to conclusions?

[BaileyisDarcy]

Maybe. But its easier to control your own actions than their REactions.

[ThisDudeHere]

Point taken.

Hahaha I'm afraid she may be really disappointed if she discoveres what's really happening :o
You could end up swimming!

[Ygritte_snow]

lol it's because she thinks he's proposing haha

[Shrooms]

Genius!

[ThisDudeHere]

So should guys get shoes with zippers or clippers instead?

[Ygritte_snow]

maybe just warn the girl, like "oops, my shoelace" haha

[ThisDudeHere]

I think it would be easier to just not jump to conclusions lol

[octoberbabe]

A girl will think the guy is proposing...

[ThisDudeHere]

But he's just tying his laces.

[octoberbabe]

That's the joke!!

[ThisDudeHere]

Exactly!!!

[karahiri]

i don't understand crying at all for proposals.

[ThisDudeHere]

And I don't understand it when it comes to tying shoe laces either.

[-MARX-]

Um, if you don't get it, she thinks he's going to propose

[ThatBritishLad]

Hysterical tears are a common reaction to being in Paris.

[Anonymous]

She's having a blonde moment.

[Triss]

Lmaooo that is most likely true

[noheadphones]

I never understood that either.

[iceEverestere]
