It was beautiful by many women's standards. He had music, a ring and all the right words, but he was also in front of a large audience that heard his girlfriend say no.
Beyonce's "Single Ladies" might give men the impression that all women want to them to "put a ring on it." But some women aren't in a rush to walk down the aisle if it's not the right time or the right man. One lady's perplexed face at her boyfriend's proposal raised a few eyebrows but it serves as a lesson to men: Don't assume an over-the-top proposal will guarantee a yes.
The Proposal from Mims Media on Vimeo.
A proposal is important and should be memorable, but the health and stability of your relationship is what's most important. Perhaps this couple had serious issues that the woman wanted to work out before jumping the broom. So, if you ever find yourself in the midst of an awkward and downright theatrical proposal, don't assume the status quo. It's okay to just say no.

You guys are hilarious. Now we are name calling! How intelligent. The question is hypothetical (look that up). It is not a direct reference to the man and woman in the picture. The bottom line is--when a man asks a woman to marry him, it is not on a whim. He has already done all that it takes to get to that point in time. If the woman says no, he should move on. Period. They are not on the same page, wave length, channel, planet. I have been married for 36 years, but, if her answer had been no, i would have moved on. Period!

Hypothetical - Of, relating to, or based on a hypothesis.
However, the question was directly related to the video, he proposes in a very public setting, and she declines, hence the topic "The Proposal".
Look at the video... this was obviously done on a whim in hopes of making her forget that he screwed up. Fortunately, she was smart enough to realize that problems don't do away just because you get married. I would rather for her to say NO now, then to get married knowing it's a mistake and to end up having the marriage annulled which, in this case, she would have definate grounds for one (look that up).
....and calling a woman a 'gold-digger' isn't name calling?
Been married 19yrs, wasn't ready the first time he asked, took three years to get to that point, but we did it. Apparently you did something right too! 36yrs! Congratulations!

If a guy I was involved with proposed to me in public & I wasn't interested in marrying him, I would say yes. Then after everyone scatters, i would explain to him that I didn't want to be married but I didn't want to embarrass him. There is nothing wrong in being kind.
