What Exactly Should You Do If Your Boyfriend Pretends To Propose To You?

What Exactly Should You Do If Your Boyfriend Pretends To Propose To You?

Published Dec 26, 2019 at 04:14PM EST by Bridget.

We hope you all had a lovely Christmas…well at least one that went much better than the poor soul below. In a very ridiculous story posted to /r/relationships, a 25-year-old woman asks users what she should do about her 27-year-old boyfriend who fake-proposed to her on Christmas. After her story was reposted by the Twitter account @redditships, many tweets were sent begging her to absolutely burn the whole relationship down.

Bf (27m) of 6 years got me (25f) a ring box for Christmas and put a note in it that says "haha you thought" as a joke. I'm not laughing. danxingdasies • 1 hour ago • relationship_advice 94% upvoted Today at my boyfriends family Christmas we were doing gifts. I see a tiny box wrapped with my name on it from him so I unwrap it. I open and reveal its a ring box, l'm kinda confused but I obviously think it's the ring as we've been together so long and we talk about marriage all the time as well as live together. I felt awkward opening the box myself bc if he's proposing he should be giving it to me, right? Turns out it's just a ring box with a note in it saying "haha you thought". I wasn't amused. I was so sad and disappointed. Who does that to someone they've been with for so long? At this point Im not even sure what to do, as he said it was a harmless joke but to me it hurt. Would anyone else take this lightly?

What Will The Bros Think

@irjdjsk Replying to @redditships the thing is: if she breaks up with him, knowing how men's brain work, he'll tell his bros she broke because he didn't propose instead of "I'm immature and she broke up with me because I played with her feelings" >

Always Think About What Jesus Would Do

Adam Smith @adamndsmith Replying to @redditships In times like this I think, "What Would Jesus Do?" and the answer is Jesus would end him and you should do the same

He Is The Worst

Lou Gossip Jr. @princeleron Replying to @redditships It's been time to leave and this is just cruel. Society has shamed women for wanting men to display commitment to their relationships. After six years there should have been multiple discussions about where this relationship is going. He humiliated her on Christmas, the worst. >

Now That Would Have Been Funny

Ethankyou (K) @Ethankyou Replying to @redditships This is only a joke if you turn around and he's got the ring in this hand. This is just cruel...

Would Love To See This Translated On Screen

Tim @timbuc Replying to @Ethankyou and @redditships Also a joke if she saw it coming, says "I don't understand, there's nothing there" then hands it to him and as he peers in, a tentacle shoots out, envelops his face and drags him into the tiny box where he is sucked into a hellish dimension by a vengeance demon for eternity.

Something Says This Isn't The First Time

Wagathuku @kamusundo Replying to @redditships Cruelty was the point. Dude purposefully took the time to find a box, put a hurtful note in it, wrap the box, and present it so he could laugh at her disappointment. I have to question how many red flags she's ignored in 6 years. This is a cruel spirit.

Burn It Down

Abandoned America @abandonedameric Replying to @redditships You know, people here often advise the most extreme responses, like ending the relationship, and often I think, maybe there's a way to salvage things and find happiness. But not this time. Burn this relationship to the ground. That is just wrong.

At Least The Tree Served Its Purpose

Josh "Sunday Mass Effect" Brown @TheSpeakman Replying to @redditships Put him on the curb by the tree, because they're both dead to you.

The Only Advice She Needs

Yuinove+ @YuinoSery Replying to @redditships Tell him you're so happy to be in a relationship with him and then give him that "haha you thought" note back. And break up. What a horrible idea.
