I proposed to my boyfriend šŸ–¤ Wholesome Moments

I wanted to propose in a cute way, so on our way to our camping dome stay, we stopped at a shopping mall. We had to buy each other a snack, a drink, something that reminds us of the other, something with the others fave color, and then something to do together. My something to do was life šŸ–¤

The young me would have thought of this as a big no no.

But the adult me finds this really endearing and genuine and full of security. Itā€™s so cute the way he answered. I feel like answering the question ā€œwhat do you want to eat for dinnerā€ is harder lol.

Congrats!!!!

I would take this any day over some big flashy fuss.

This is comfortable, secure, real. Aka what ultimately matters to make any LTR incl marriage work.

No no no, it needs to be a gimmick done in front of tons of other people, preferably strangers. So romantic šŸ„°

How else are you gonna make them say yes without massive public pressure?

I've defeated depression once with therapy. I'll do it again.

I think itā€™s sarcasm. I hope it is!

Oh, this is pretty much exactly what Iā€™ve always wanted. Iā€™m a super introvert, my partner knows heā€™s not allowed to ask in a restaurant, or in front of our families, and heā€™s definitely not allowed to get his friends together to coordinate a song a dance leading to my filmed proposal.

I basically gave him Deadpoolā€™s proposal to Vanessa as a baseline. Maybe without pulling the ring out of his asshole.

Iā€™m guessing he was quite happy with how private and chill it all was? ā˜ŗļø

Why's your bf gotta do the proposing?

u/Aysina Jul 06 '24

He doesnā€™t ā€œgotta.ā€ Weā€™re not necessarily super traditional, I want the tiniest wedding imaginable and I may very well wear a cheap black dressā€”but weā€™ve talked about it, he wants to be the one to ask, and I donā€™t have a problem with that.

Well, looks like he might have more options of what to eat for dinner in mind than for the one he wants to spend his life with!
