That’s great!!

When mike proposed, we were at lunch together and the waitress was trying to hit on him the whole time not knowing I was his girlfriend. Later on. he quietly pulled out the box and asked me. Right when I said yes (with the ring box open) the waitress walked right up and was starting to say, “are you ready to- oh. nevermind.” Once she saw what was going on… she never came back and we had to ask for a new server. He’s taken now waitress!!! HA!

I have a friend who proposed at the finish line as his girlfriend finished a marathon - a wonderful concept, but a bad outcome. She felt so awful she was throwing up as he was on one knee.

the night of the proposal - when Mr. Bee and I arrived at the wine bar where we first met, our waiter was acting sooooooo nervous that I knew Mr. Bee was going to propose that night. Hehe… it was cute actually.

the night my fiance proposed, i was laying on the couch watching my fav show, “Dog the Bounty Hunter.” and then i saw him walking with this bump on his jeans pocket and said, “what the hell do you got in there?” …..way to ruin a moment. he got down on one knee and proposed then. it was def a surprise though i am ashamed of myself for ruining what he had in mind for the proposal.

A friend of mine was proposed to in an airport. The then boyfriend had the ring in his pocket because he didn’t trust leaving it in his luggage and had grand plans to propose while on vacation. At airport security, he was asked to empty his pockets in front of my friend when his pants began to beep. Not wanting to ruin the surprise, he turned around and proposed to my friend at the security checkpoint, revealing what why his pants were beeping. My friend said, that he did propose again while on vacation, according to plan.

My boyfriend and I had invited our grandparents to come with us on a trip to London (we live in Sweden). One evening we were at Piccadilly Circus and my bf suggested that we would all stand by the fountain so that my grandfather could take our picture. Afterwards we all stood under the fountain so that we could see how the picture came out. All of a sudden my boyfriend started talking about the fountain and its origin. He said that the statue in the fountain was an Eros statue but I started disagreeing and said that it wasn’t really Eros but Cupid. After a while my bf started getting irritated and just said: Please woman, could you be quiet? Apparently he wanted to tell us about the legend which said that if you proclaimed your love for someone at the Eros-fountain in London, it would last for ever. So he proposed there and then, a bit irritated, and I stood there feeling stupid while our grandparents were crying.

Why can’t I ever keep my mouth shut?

Mr. B had the whole thing planned out - he even “scouted the location” where he wanted to do it. His whole plan was to casually suggest we go there, and he would do it then, surprise me with dinner reservations, etc. Well, the first weekend he planned to do it we had terrible thunderstorms (the location was outside). The next weekend, I unknowingly invited a friend of ours to come see our apartment (we had just moved) and she ended up staying into the evening. He had to change the whole plan, scout a NEW location, and come up with a story to get me there on a week night. Which I almost ruined - again - by inviting another friend to meet us at dinner!!

Luckily, she had plans, and the 3rd time was the charm!

I figure he must really want to marry me to be that persistent!

Fi wanted to propose in public at a baseball game on the jumbotron. he had told my parents and was all excited - until he realized the seats were clear across the stadium and I am blind as a bat.

Rather than chance me missing the big question, he ran around town getting an easter basket for me with gifts and my ring inside. A much nicer proposal, esp since we weren’t really fans of that team!

Fi sent me an email that said that he had won a balloon ride from a United Way raffle. (This was doctored email.) I thought, “Great, always wanted to go!” The weather was bad for quite a bit of weekends so we couldn’t take flight. (Think 9 weekends) The cold December weekend had really nice weather so we went up 7:00 in the morning. We are flying over this beautiful area, over the trees and houses. We touchdown in a golf course so we can get at a better position. Up in the air, I see these people running from a tree and I’m wondering, ‘What the hell? What’s going on? There must be an emergency or something. People just don’t go running around in trees.’ James points out an airport down the ways and i’m thinking, ‘Airport? We’re in Cheshire.’ Then he says to look down and to tell him what the sign says……”Ferdie, don’t do it!”…….James says, “Wah? Ferdie, don’t do it?!” Then he proposed. We touched down on a frozen pond in Hubbard park and our friends were waiting in the parking lot. He told me after that the sign was supposed to say, “Ferdie, will you marry me?” I love that his friends are so funny!

My boyfriend has back problems, and he hurt it a day or two before he was supposed to to propose. His medication is so strong that it kept it him in bed all day in a semi-dream state. He managed to propose in the end, after I reminded him. Then, he told me he forgot the ring, but in truth, he forgot that it was in his pocket! I let him borrow my other ring for the proposal, and we found the real one later.
