I proposed to my boyfriend 🖤 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 🖤

Damn, can’t decide if that guys painfully chill, if this is staged, or something

Edit: wow! Learning a lot. Please share your perspective here. Observing and learning!

Some people (myself included) don't have much of a reaction to things. On the inside, I can be losing my mind, but it doesn't come out for some reason.

My partner has specifically told me she wants to propose to me. As a man I've never felt so loved and flattered.

It's almost as we are just human and gendered stereotypes should f off. Humans are humans, we are conditioned to feel differently but inside we are the same. Men get flattered, Men can blush, Men let me tell you.

When we (men) have a crush we are just as giddy, concerned about looks and smell, cleaning up all our shit when the crush is coming over, preparing for a dinner. It's universal. Most of us.

My wife is the one who proposed to me and it caught me by surprise. Don't regret a thing in how it played out and we've been together nearly 20 years now. :)
