glows Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 We were with family at the time in the US, east coast. I was burnt from deep sea fishing and more interested in the boat and fishing. No, I didn't see it coming because I didn't consider marriage at all. It was very nice. Link to post Share on other sites

lana-banana Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 We went ring shopping together, picked out a stone together, etc, but it still came as a total shock. I was completely sure of a date when he was going to propose, but he ended up doing it a week earlier. I went to the bathroom right before it happened and texted a friend "No, I know it's not happening tonight". Oops! Even if you know it's coming, you don't know it's coming, and you cannot be ready emotionally for the moment. None of it feels real. It's so intense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
d0nnivain Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I was way wrong once. I thought he was coming over to propose but he broke up with me instead. 🥴 With DH, I sensed it. I also knew we were going on a cruise & would be at one of my favorite jewelry stores in the world on the cruise. I was going no matter what to buy myself stuff. DH had arranged things but I didn't know the details. His mechanic had already spilled the beans shortly before we left. I stopped by to get his car out of the shop for him & the mechanic said something like "I guess I can give you the car since you guys will be getting engaged soon anyway." As soon as the mechanic said it he realized he wasn't supposed to have ruined the surprise. So nobody tell DH I posted it on here. I did get the night wrong so there was that. Also the elaborate lengths were truly a surprise. My ring came out under dome at dessert & was presented to me on a bed of yellow roses with champagne. He did not get down on one knee because the waves were too rough that night & it would not have been the best move under the circumstances. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Woggle Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 No and honestly I had all intentions of breaking it off at the time but she won my over and got through to my heart. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Daisydooks Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 It wasnt a surprise. He felt he hid it better than he actually did though and I played along. I did tell him I knew a while later but I played along when he was out buying a ring for me and when he started asking questions that lead me to believe he was going to ask that year. Hahaha. I was not at all shocked in the least however, we had also just bought a home together and the timing all came together beautifully for us ❤ 1 Link to post Share on other sites
xxcazaxx Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 I was taken by surprise. Had gone to the hotel next door for a drink and were just chilling and looking at the pretty rice field that I had wanted to take pics of. He had been planning it that trip unbeknown to me but hadn't decided that this particular day was going to be the day. He then said he needed to nip back to where we were staying for his sunglasses. Turns out he was actually going back for the ring. He said that the moment just felt right at that time Link to post Share on other sites
