I wasn't!
-
No...but he'll never know (I'll take it to the grave) that I was kind of hunting through the house and found a box...
It still took him 6 months after that (which was 3 months after he bought it) to ask.
-
No, it was romantic
-
I wasn't. My husband said it was to how he wanted to do it, though!
-
No, it was perfect for us. But everyone kept asking about it and always looked disappointed when I told them the story. It was hard not to feel bad about that, even though I was happy.
-
I didn't really get a proposal, but not disappointed!
-
No! It was really fun. It was a scavenger hunt and it included my family and best friend.
-
I was
He did it in the morning and was only in boxers. We
had gone on a weekend trip and it was our first morning there. I was slightly hungover and not feeling well. I asked him for ibuprofen and had just popped somein my mouth. He came up behind me and was kind of awkwardly hugging me. I turned around and he was holding out a ring. He was nervous and he choked! He said he just wanted to get it over with because of his nerves But I was sort of sad I didnt get a big romantic proposal with the down on one knee thing. Totally happy I married him though
-
I wish that I could have a do-over, in that I really thought DH was going to propose that night and midway through the evening I said something along the lines of "I really thought you were going to propose tonight." Well, it turns out he was and I'm kind of embarrassed about how I acted. I wish I could have just relaxed and let things happen.
-
Not disappointed
-
@Leialou: So fun!
-
Nope! It was simple and private, just like us!
-
It was amazing!
-
Not at all! After ten years together he still managed to surprise me! Even my family knew and their blessing. Which if you know us you would know how significant it was.
-
It was great!
-
No.
@Aria: Even though I liked my proposal (and it was traditionally romantic-- sunset, beach. etc) I still don't like when people ask about it! It feels very personal and I always feel like they want more theatrics than I'm inclined to give with the story or something.
-
Not at all! It was very simple and romantic...just the way I wanted it. I told him if he ever proposed to me in a stadium or in front of a bunch of people I would say no! (Of course I was kidding...sorta.)
-
Not at all - it was beautiful! Very unexpected and I have pictures of it too
-
Not disappointed, no. It was just us, in bed and very sweet. I really don't even remember what he said, but I said yes (obvi).
-
@lawbee11: haha, I told DH the same thing! We went to a Yankees game the month he proposed and I was terrified the entire time. He ended up proposing on our trip to Myrtle Beach.
-
It wasn't romantic in the least and I wasn't even sure he was proposing, but it was perfect because it made for a lifetime of jokes.
-
Nope! It was on the deck of our suite on a cruise ship in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico at Sunset. I think I'd have to be a real bitch to be disappointed by that!!!
-
@spaniellove: when my cousin's husband proposed he just started talking about how she means a lot to him and he has really been happy during their time together, etc and she burst into tears and asked him if he was breaking up with her! So you're not alone in your proposal confusion!
-
It was on Christmas morning, which is my FAVORITE THING EVER. So, no.
-
Nope! We were talking about it allnsummer so I thought he wouldn't be ablr tobsurprise me and he did!!
-
Yes, I was a little dissappointed. I wanted a just-us proposal, but my mom was included.
-
He went all out and it was fantastic. Despite all of that my favorite part was when he said, "I'm tired of calling you my girlfriend, and I want to call you my wife." Cue the tears.
-
Our proposal was perfect even though I fell in a ditch just moments before lol.
-
A little. Only because I was being a super bitch and in a horrible mood and he took me for a hike that I didn't want to go on and seemed like it lasted a million years. I was storming down the mountain after we had gotten to the top (where he was going to propose but chickened out after seeing the amount of people there) and he just stopped me randomly and got down on one knee. So, it was good, just not how either of us expected, lol.
-
Not at all.
I look at it very fondly, because for all his confidence and wanting to do things extra-special for me "because I deserved better", I will always remember how it went down completely wrong, in a good way. How it wasn't the all out expensive dinner and one-knee Question, how the ring was the absolute best he could afford and he still felt it wasn't good enough, how I had to reassure him through my twin's public Question and engagement first, and both my sisters' marriages first.
He is my one and only forever, and I wouldn't have had it happen any other way.
-
I was not disappointed by the proposal I said yes too. However, I was less than thrilled with several drinking-induced, no thought what-so-ever, shouted from the couch while I'm in the kitchen "will you marry mes?" over the years. We planned to use a family member's ring. Walk up stairs and get it so I know you're serious.
-
No, but I didn't care about a fancy proposal. I think most people would be disappointed by our "proposal story".
-
I'm disappointed that he did not go down on one knee, but otherwise it was a very sweet proposal and he got me the perfect ring.
-
No. It was perfect. The thing I'm disappointed over is that my "friend" let it slip when he was going to propose to me, so I wasn't surprised.
-
It wasn't overhelming but it was sweet and I'm still happy I said yes!
-
@avivoca: Ugh, I'd never speak to them again.
I was very happy with my proposal! I fell, got clobbered by a labrador, and can't even remember if I said yes. It was perfect.
-
Gosh no, he went above and beyond to plan the destination proposal and it was amazing.
-
Slightly, I knew it was coming because we went on "walks" at two different places and then ended up at home. I had a strong suspicion it was coming, an then when we went home I was like "huh guess not." Then he just went into our room and called me in there and was down on one knee, he said he got too nervous to do it at one of the "pretty" locations. I was more disappointed because I told him , my only request was I wanted pictures of it and we didn't have any.
-
@Espion: We are not close anymore, that's for sure.
-
Yes. It was my fault though. We were supposed to go out to dinner in the city and he'd planned to recreate our first date and propose. However, before I could change to go out, I got a bad news letter in the mail, started crying, and said I didn't want to go out. He then told me, "Crap, I had a big evening planned...I was going to propose." I said, "What?! Why are you telling me this now?!" I was even more bummed out. He finally talked me into a walk at the local nature preserve/swamp...and he ended up proposing there. I was still in a bad mood, but he did get down on one knee and we had a nice dinner at a local place after. But yeah, it totally felt like plan B. I kinda wish he'd rescheduled for another night.
He did it in the morning and was only in boxers. We
