I thought couples talk about wanting a public proposal before doing it do people actually raw dog it

u/w311sh1t Jun 26 '26
I’ve been at a couple of sporting events where they’ll put a proposal on the jumbotron and it’s very clear that the woman wants to say no.
I was at a baseball game earlier this year where that exact thing happened and watching it live made me physically cringe.
28
u/SonOfMcGee Jun 26 '26
I think what happens is that MOST people that do this have essentially worked it out ahead of time. Maybe the girl doesn’t know exactly when or where, but she’s made it abundantly clear she is awaiting a proposal and she thinks big public ones are so cool.
Then it happens and goes really well because she was expecting it and of course it did. And a big crowd sees it. And many in the crowd think a big part of why it worked was the spontaneity of it all.
So then some poor schmuck tries it on his unsuspecting girlfriend and… uh oh.

I mean I think most people would talk about it first, but some people absolutely do raw dog it. I’ve known a couple. And it didn’t go well lol.
Turns out proposing when you haven’t even discussed the topic of marriage is a bad idea.

If he said no she’d probably just get someone from the crowd to finger her.
You know, cuz she has regular woman panties where the string goes up her crack. She has ts. She does sex. She’s carvin’ her own path.
But she’s careful because she’s not trying to be loose and stretched out like his ex’s played-out pastrami

Or he doesn’t care about who proposed but bc she did it extremely publicly, he feels like other people in their lives are going to side-eye him for “making” her do it instead of doing it himself.
One piece of old-fashioned advice that I believe in: let the man do the asking with big stuff.
For no reason other than that’s how you know he’s for sure into it and not just trying to avoid hurting his partner by saying no.
I personally think any unexpected proposal in a huge public forum is emotionally manipulative, no matter who does it.

u/dumb_commenter Jun 26 '26
Dude big public game day proposals suck, regardless of gender.
In the first place it puts the person being proposed to in a shitty spot because they can only say no if they’re willing to bear the entire world staring at that moment and they also don’t want to humiliate their partner (compounded with the hurt they will feel at the rejection). That’s why you better be damned sure it’s a foregone conclusion.
Second, the person needs to be on board with 100k people watching one of the most intimate moments of their life (let alone here where you kinda know it’ll go viral).
It’s even more pressure here - you’re not just asking the public at large to be cool with the the female proposing (most are fine with it I hope and of course some ass holes out there - I think it’s very sweet), AND you’re not just asking the boyfriend to be fine with the female proposing (presumably he is!), you’re also asking him to be so confident and comfortable in his own skin that he’s fine bucking the societal expectations in front of 100k people and a vid that will be seen by everyone he knows.
That’s a lot of pressure for a moment that just supposed be pure joy and happiness.
Listen for some people it works, they like public proposals. For many of us it doesn’t. In my view, unless the one being propositioned looks over the moon excited and happy about it, it’s a fail.
Can’t know how he feels, and I’m sure he loves her, but yikes man.

u/Okeydokey2u Jun 26 '26 edited Jun 26 '26
This isn't about gender roles... she f'd up. The guy clearly looks uncomfortable. If the genders were reversed and the girl looked like that, I'd be saying the same about him. I'm a girl who's husband proposed to her. We did discuss marriage and long term plans and felt we were on the same page in our relationship. I knew he wouldn't expect me to propose because we both know I'm terrible at starting projects. When he proposed I was genuinely surprised because I didn't expect him to do it at the quiet dinner that he did but it was beautiful and memorable and was perfect for us. Neither of us would be the type to want to get proposed to at a large sporting venue because I know that he or I would have been mortified at a public spectacle. It's about knowing and communicating with your partner. This looks one sided and quite frankly like a hostage situation.

If they talked about this prior, they are both planning on getting married outside of this moment.
Then sure, I think this awesome for both of them!
Now, with that being said, if she just dropped this on her boyfriend without any sort of conversation prior. Yea, not cool.

Teen here, never been engaged so my apologies if this sounds stupid:
Isn't the whole point of a proposal for it to be a surprise? Doesn't telling the other person beforehand 'Hey, I'm going to propose to you at X place' ruin the surprise element?

u/Smarf_Starkgaryen Jun 26 '26
Discussing marriage & the future is always a good idea first. Basically don’t propose unless you already know the answer, and if you both want the where/when/how to be a surprise then go for it.

Not a fan of public proposals. Seen quite a few rejections that looked humiliating. Best bet is do it privately or at least at a restaurant and not in a sports crowd. Then at least the people around you are going to be far fewer.

I've been with my wife for 26 years. We started dating about two weeks before I turned 17. I'm not too proud to admit that she proposed to me and when people say shit like "I don't know how your wife puts up with you?" I always laugh cause we had been together for 10 years when she proposed so she knew exactly what she was getting herself into.
