<p>Ahh…I remember aeronave that in Facebook. Simple beautiful. </p>
<p>One question: Why didn’t he stay with her when they left the court?? He just kept on hugging her to pose pictures and leaving her to shake hands of fans…</p>
<p>Nice BUT if I were in her place, I wouldnt marry the guy. I feel a proposal should be in an intimate setting and a public proposal is pressuring the girl to say yes. The girl would have to say yes. Otherwise, it will be all over social media that she dissed him. I would say yes then find some excuse to bow out a month later and return the ring. IMO, the public proposal will be first of many requests the guy will ask from his spouse in front of other people just so he can get a yes–requests that should be done in private so the couple can discuss the pros and cons. Instead, he will play the good cop and every time the spouse says no, shes the bad cop.</p>
<p>I would assume, krlil, that if he’s proposing he probably knows her well enough to know whether or not she’d like a public proposal. </p>
<p>Do proposals really come out of the blue? Do people still propose after not having really discussed marriage? (I’m asking, I don’t know, not in my experience.)</p>
<p>ETA: Apparently he was so nervous he put the ring on the wrong hand. I didn’t even notice! doubt she did either lol</p>
<p>I don’t think there’s any mind-reading involved at all. I would hope that if you’re asking someone to marry you, you’d at least know whether or not they’d prefer something big and flashy or small and intimate. </p>
<p>I’m with Roman on this. I know my kid and his SO have looked at rings; after all, she’ll be wearing it, so it should be her taste. (No, not engaged, still living on opposite coasts.)</p>
<p>@Krlilies We are only seeing a small snippet of their relationship. We have no knowledge of how long they’ve been together, what they’re future plans are, and if they’ve takes about marriage before. Mind reading isn’t necessary. Generally, and hopefully, throughout your relationship with someone you get a taste for their preferences.</p>
<p>Lol HarvestMoon. Maybe, she sang Single Ladies to him a few months ago. It was just weird seeing her trailing behind him while he gave high fives to the audience.</p>
<p>Anyone else remember the one where she DID say no? It was some kind of sports game and the "Will you marry me X? " was posted on the jumbo screen and then it flashed to them with him kneeling down with a ring. At that point, she grabbed her jacket and purse, shook her head no, and walked out. </p>
<p>Jonri, I did see that proposal and my heart broke for that young man. I thought the girls handling of the whole matter was in poor form. The poor guy is probably still recovering or worse yet scarred for life!</p>
<p>I have to assume that my proposal was public as we were on a beach that is ordinarily pretty crowded at that time of day, but to be honest I don’t remember a single soul being there besides us! My parents were spying from their balcony and said people stopped to watch and take pictures and I have absolutely no memory of anyone else even being there.</p>
<p>Actually, once I saw the ring and realized what was happening, I was so distracted I didn’t properly hear him say “will you marry me,” and I made him say it like ten more times. I think I actually said yes and didn’t just take the ring, but I am not sure! I asked him a few minutes later, “I DID actually SAY yes, right?” and he couldn’t remember either. It was one hell of a moment that just washed over us and overtook us, I guess. You would think I would remember every detail but it was just so much to take in at once, I couldn’t even take it all in much less remember it.</p>
<p>I would think a stadium full of people would be a little different, but I imagine probably not that much different. In that moment you are the only two people on earth. At least, that’s how it was for me.</p>
<p>Definitely depends on the individual. I would hate a public proposal and I think my daughter would as well. My best friend’s daughter loves to be in the limelight and a very public proposal (well organized my her now husband and with lots of family in a surprise appearance) was perfect for her.</p>
