Learn from him... NEVER propose in front of people.

ME: "So, we probably ought to get married, huh?"
HER: "Yeah, I guess so."

Re: Sucks To Be Him


Ouch! I kinda almost feel really bad for the guy. She could've atleast saved him some embarrassment & told him yes for the time being.

When I purposed... I did it in front of all my family, her parents, and many friends on Christmas Eve. We have a big Christmas party, Santa comes & hands out presents to the kids, and he pulls out the last one & calls her over on his lap. She was clueless. When I did it, she along with every other woman at the party cried. If I would've watched this clip before that I don't think I would've did it that way.

Yes, surely it was his fault.

Might have been a blessing. Can you imagine being married to a woman so fickle?

Re: Sucks To Be Him


My wife (girlfriend at the time) and I were living in an apartment at the time when she proposed to me. It went like this:

Her: We've been going out a while and living together for 6 months now, we'll be getting married or your outta here.

Me: OK.

We've been married for 20 years now.

Its hard for me to admit, but.........I realize its always my fault. This is years of experience speaking.

Young guys this is the first rule you need to learn. Makes life much easier.

Re: Sucks To Be Him


Leo, I was being happily single both times. Getting hitched certainly wasn't MY idea. Women somehow need to be attached to something, kinda like leeches.

I don't think it's entirely the womans fault for wanting the attachment. I think that the girls mother has a lot of influence on them and they are forever pushing the marriage angle onto them. And if you notice, as soon as you get married the Mom-in law tune changes over to "So when are you going to give me grandchildren??"

The roughest period in my marriage was the first two years when we were getting the money management problems out of the way. She also wanted to keep up her bar hopping ways at the beginning, then she didn't come home one night until the clock struck 2 am, I had put a padlock on the outside of the door to illustrate a point. She was pissed, screaming an yelling at me from the cold outside. And I explained how things were going to be from the toastiness of the warm inside (it was wintertime). Needless to say, she learned that night how a married woman should act. And that was as much training as she needed. After the 2 year training period each of us had with the other we get along fine. One of the better judgments I made in my lifetime. Ask my Mom, she'll tell you so...

Re: Sucks To Be Him


Maybe she was so happy she peed herself or something, and had to leave
...or maybe she was at the game with her other boyfriend

That's a pretty good effort on the guy's part for that stunt
