Anybody ever had a bad proposal?

[Anonymous]

Yeah mine wasn't so great. I'm glad it happened, but we were mad at each other over stuff but later he gave me the ring. You ever had a bad proposal?

I dated her for three years. Her Mom, sister and best friend all told me that she was impatient to get a proposal. At the time I worked for Tiffany & Co. in the occupation of making engagement rings. So I made her a custom engagement ring with a VVSI one carrot brilliant cut diamond, a gold ring and platinum setting. It was Valentine's day. I bought her three dozen long stem red roses, three dozen white carnations and babies breath and arranged them in a huge bouquet. I wrote her a poem and then copied it into a home made Valentine's day card using calligraphy. I learned how to make her favorite chocolate truffles from scratch. I made and gave to her, favorite chocolate desert (fudge brownie with chocolate pudding and fudge sauce topped with semi sweet chocolate chunks and cherries and whipped cream.) I took her out to her favorite four star restaurant and got her favorite dish. They had a string ensemble and had the violinist play her favorite Vivaldi piece (Spring) while we ate our appetizer. After that I took her to a Broadway show she'd been wanting to see for months. Then on the drive home it turned magical when the northern lights appeared (Aurora Borealis) and I pulled over and we got out to watch for a while. It was also the third anniversary of our firs date. I couldn't have written a better script. Everything was as perfectly romantic as a guy could make it. I got down on one knee and proposed. She smiled, let me put the ring on her finger, told me it was beautiful and then laughed at me and walked out of my life. That was about ten years ago and I have not dated since. That was the fifth and final time a girl turned down my proposal. After 5 rejections I figure I'm not husband material.

Damn not every girl is an asshole like that.

@iseekpinetrees At my age it's pointless to keep trying, besides, due to age and medical problems I'm no longer able to physically please a woman and I'm not cute or rich enough for most women to over look such things.

[iseekpinetrees]

Relationship needs change over time. As with age as well.

@iseekpinetrees The last several dates I was on, shortly after my last girlfriend left me all occurred within three months and every last woman in question asked me about my penis size and my libido. All rejected me and ended the date within an hour. I completely and permanently gave up after that. My last date was in May 2011

[iseekpinetrees]

well that's straight forward! Lol curious what you said to her

[Leavesbound]

@iseekpinetrees Which one?

I never really proposed to my wife. After the 3 rd time we went out we both knew how it was going to end up. We thought it was cool that we had that kind of relationship and besides we were saving to buy a house so buying an engagement ring was an expense we didn't need. Now I wish I had mad a bigger deal about it.

Thanks for the MHO

She punched me in the face when I asked her because she thought I was joking. One revealed ring later she agreed.

Not the best proposal, but it worked out lol

[exitseven]

great story, glad it worked out for you.

[Ez-Bri-Z]

Lol thank you. It sort of matched up with our first date where she blinded me with my own car keys by throwing them at me in the dark.

I love her dearly, but her judgment leaves me confused at times lmao

sounds like a good symbiotic relationship.

[Starwitch23]

Yeah I did. But, it turned out he wasn't interested in relationship but other goodies. You know what I mean.

I got engaged a few months ago and we both had talked about it before hand. It was more of a negotiation than a proposal. We both knew we wanted to get married, so we just made it official without any big ceremony.

Later, we picked out a ring together.

Oh lord yes there was this on guy I dated early on in highschool and he proposed ti me on campus and obviously I shot him done and even broke up with him what was he thinking we were 15

[Anonymous]

Yeah he dumped me and then proposed to me after I moved out.

That sounds like a red flag for what's to come after marriage...

[dumazzs]
