Uhm...I'm pretty traditional when it comes to this, and I actually made my husband re-propose. I know that sounds bad, but I really wanted him to get down on his knee. And he had planned it that way, but he took me to dinner first and decided to jump the gun. So he gets up in a really suspicious way: said he had to go to his truck but wouldn't tell me why...so of course I had already figured it out. And then he asked the waitress to put the ring box on a little plate with a napkin on top of it and bring it to me.
Really?
I didn't want to embarrass him in front of everyone around us, so I did the yes thing, but once we got into the car, I gave him back the ring and the box. He looked at me confused, and I said, "Look. No offense, but I have spent hours of my life fantasizing about the moment when someone would propose to me, and it has never happened with the guy sitting in a chair. So, here's your ring back, and when you do it the right way, I'll say yes."
He got really pissed off at first, but I got him on his knees so it was worth it. And now it makes a good story.![]()
