Title: valentines day proposal gone bad.
Post by: froggielover on February 17, 2006, 06:49:48 AM
hey.. just wanted to share something that happened on our local radio station on valentines morning.  some sweet guy tried to propose to his girlfriend on the radio.. and it went very very badly.     

what are your thoughts on this... should he have waited and given her what she thinks would be a good way to propose.. or is professing his love for her over the radio enough..  i thought it was sweet.. and dont think she should have done this to him on the radio.. but i am interested in your thoughts...

you have to give him points for originality.  If I was him I don't think I would have stayed with that girl.  It took a lot of galls to ask her that on the radio waves.  That was so so sweet and for him to shoot him down like that-that was a shot thru the heart.  Man what a witch she is-if I was him I'd be glad she did that cuz then that means I'd be free to go find someone else...

You know, I've never been one to mince words. The girl in the car sounded like Paris Hilton on crack. She was a complete Bi*** and I hope the poor guy realizes that what he done was a very sweet gesture. I hope he dumps her and realizes he is what so many women are looking for. She acted like a spoiled brat. Wine and dine her? How original. And the apology to her parents she made was just plain tacky. If I was her mother, I would disown her today. She needs to realize that the guy loves her and wants to spend the rest of his life with her (what in God's name for is beyond me). If anyone publically humiliated me like she did him, I wouldn't bother calling her spolied arse. Let her get a surfer dude from the 80's that would possibly equal her mentality level. What a f***ing B****!!! And froggie, you were wonderful. I must commend you on your statement.

i have to agree...   she was a spoiled brat and they were talkin about this all morning long the day after and playing the clip again.... and the reactions where more toward the man but some of the girls were siding with the woman who rejected him..she did do him wrong.  i was so teary and so happy for them .. you know.. anticipating the "i will".. and my jaw dropped when she said what she said.  i just wanted him to know that i thought it was sweet and i really hope he heard it.  :(     

so my question is also this.. if u fantisized about you "wedding proposal" and got it a different way.. would it make you mad.. ?

"marry me" on my neck with his tongue. :P   it wasn't what i had in mind.. but WOW.. was i blown away. lol..  O0

I know women like this. Want, want, want. Gimme, gimme, gimme.  Bee itch, bee itch, bee itch.  They're alone.  Every single one of them.  And they all wonder why.

She was a b****. I wouldn't want to marry her now if I were that man. I thought that what he did was a romantic thing to get on the radio and propose the way he did. She seemed really snotty about it too. If I were him I would dump her and not even bother trying to work it out with her. She totally embarressed him on the radio and that was not right. I hope he dumps her and finds a nice lady.

I have a few girlfriends,  all they want is a proposal--could care less how and where he ask her, they would find something romantic about it.  I have a 24 year old son and he often tells me about some of the girls he meet.
I saw him go a little overboard on one but I had to let him find out by himself and he did.  Boy was I happy.

wow...I really didn't think I was gonna be in the minority on this one, considering what hardcore women we have in our little pogo cheats family....

Here's my thoughts.  They have been dating for 6 months.  If my husband would have proposed after 6 months I would have told his ass no too.  Secondly, she told him, prior to him calling the radio station, that she didn't want it to go down like that.  Again, just because he went ahead and did it anyway, I would have said no.  To me, he sounds like a batterer, and I know this from experience because that's the work I do everyday.  Quick to force a commitment?  Check.  Needs to control all aspects of relationship? Check.  She has told him before that he can't call her at work because it gets her in trouble.  He was still going to call her at work anyway.  If I got in trouble for receiving personal calls at work, and told my "man" ONE time not to do it again, he had better not.  Because otherwise, its just disrespectful (and probably stalking). 

I know we don't have all the information on this one, so I don't want to be so quick to judge.  And her "wine and dine" comment was harsh and sounded kinda selfish.  Maybe I am just a b***h, but that's how I feel.   :-*

You are right apple.  I would have probably not given any answer...maybe just said..."That's sweet. Thank you...can we talk about this in private?"  lol

...and I consider being a "b***h" a good thing.  If someone calls me that, it usually means I have spoken my mind...and I in no way thought anyone was directing any negativity towards me...communication error perhaps!

Quick to judge?  You just called him an impatient, battering, control freak!  I knew from the moment I laid eyes on my hubby I wanted to marry him.  And SHE's the one that sounded like the control freak.... "This is the way I want you to ask me to marry you, I want you to do this and that and this and that and only this and that."  I mean IT'S HIS PROPOSAL! Why didn't she just make the reservations, and write a script for him to follow?  I have a feeling that had he wined and dined her and asked her, it would not have been to her satisfaction.  And if she had a problem with what he was doing?  Take it off the air.  What he did for her was sweet.. What she did to him was embarrassing.  PERIOD.

I agree with ya libra..she wanted it done this way and that way..why didn't she just write the poor boy a script and hold pratice at the restaurant with him and the wait staff?  Hell if this is the way she is now and they just dating...image what she'd be like married.  Can you say ball and chain with a whip? Wine and dinner on valentines day followed by a proposal...any decent woman can smell that coming a mile away.

With hubby when I met him I knew I had to have him .  His proposal wasn't the worlds greatest.  It went something like this.  hon, your going to marry me.  I am? huh? Yes your going to marry me and thats the end of it.  Are you proposing to me? Sweetie get your purse we have an appt at the jewelers in an hour to pick out your engagement ring.  Your kidding me right?  Sweetie, I'm going to make you my wife and thats all I got to say about that.  Now come on, were going to be late.

Granted it wasn't anywhere near romantic, but then again he has NEVER been good with romantic stuff.  He tried the best he could-and thats all I'll ever ask him to do is at least try.   :)

I think I would probably secretly be HORRIFIED if my hubby proposed that way...

Glad to know I didn't offend you...I am just a little on edge recently considering all the craziness and backbiting that's been going on here recently!   :o   O0

...personally....I think the whole flowers and candles and romantic dinner thing is a bunch of hooey anyway...let me share this...

Here's how our engagement went down...  Our dog (who was just then a puppy) came bounding into the kitchen with a little jewelry box in her mouth.  She used to put anything that wasn't moving into her little mouthy (as all pups will do...lol) so I just assumed I had left an earring box or something in her reach...I started chasing her around and my now-husband came up the steps and asked what all the commotion was about.  I finally retrieved the box and opened it.  I turned around, astonished at the beauty inside the box, and he asked me to marry him.  To me, that was the most romantic thing ever, because we had already purchased our own home and had been living together for 3 years at that point and I was happy with that.  Never expected it to happen that way...and that was just the best.

Okay so Imma lil late and just listened to this ..and of course I have to give my opinion!

I got proposed to on Valentines Day .. after he and I had discussed (through 3 years of dating) that I wanted to be proposed to on any day except valentines, because its just too predictable. I wanted the .. complete surprise proposal .. one of those random days, anything BUT valentines .. but let me tell you there was no way in heck I could be rude to a man who had the guts, to get down on one knee in a fancy schmancy restaurant to ask me to spend the rest of my life with him. Just couldnt do it. (Dont ask how it ended!!)

I think the biggest problem in that phone call was lack of communication!!!! 6 months of dating may work well for some, obviously not these two. I feel bad for both of em - her for not getting her dream proposal .. him for the way she reacted to it. - but uhh all seriousness aside, Im still laughing.

See?  The typical idea of "romance" is overrated.  Froggie here has been married to her soulmate for 9 years (congrats, btw) and none of that hoopla was involved.  But, its still romantic...in its own way, because its theirs.  No one else will ever share in that with them.  That's awesome.

we are planning an elopement for our 10th anniversary and then going somewhere to celebrate.  ehhehehhehe... isn't that romantic.. see.. i'll get a romantic something.. just 10yrs down the road.  O0

See?  The typical idea of "romance" is overrated.  Froggie here has been married to her soulmate for 9 years (congrats, btw) and none of that hoopla was involved.  But, its still romantic...in its own way, because its theirs.  No one else will ever share in that with them.  That's awesome. 

* and thanks clingfree...I think it was pretty awwwww too!   ;)

Do you think perhaps it was a prank of the radio?  That mayb it was a whole set up thingy and on April Fools they'll replay the whole thing and go "APRIL FOOLS!"  They've done chit like that down here.

wow...I really didn't think I was gonna be in the minority on this one, considering what hardcore women we have in our little pogo cheats family....

Here's my thoughts.  They have been dating for 6 months.  If my husband would have proposed after 6 months I would have told his ass no too.  Secondly, she told him, prior to him calling the radio station, that she didn't want it to go down like that.  Again, just because he went ahead and did it anyway, I would have said no.  To me, he sounds like a batterer, and I know this from experience because that's the work I do everyday.  Quick to force a commitment?  Check.  Needs to control all aspects of relationship? Check.  She has told him before that he can't call her at work because it gets her in trouble.  He was still going to call her at work anyway.  If I got in trouble for receiving personal calls at work, and told my "man" ONE time not to do it again, he had better not.  Because otherwise, its just disrespectful (and probably stalking). 

I know we don't have all the information on this one, so I don't want to be so quick to judge.  And her "wine and dine" comment was harsh and sounded kinda selfish.  Maybe I am just a b***h, but that's how I feel.   :-*

I actually agree with most of what you said here, in terms of what we heard. The dude did not handle it very well, and apparently doesn't abide by his supposed future wife's wishes either. And only 6 months of dating, there is no need to rush into a proposal that quick, even if they had discussed the possibility of it. And as far as proposals go, he did not do a good job in that department. No big speech, no profession of love (not even an "I love you" in there at all), no feelings expressed, just.. "will you marry me?".. and saying it over the phone- she has a point there, that is not the way to go with something like that. I see some of the women here saying how sweet it was and they would have loved it or whatever.. but come on, would you really want the one you love proposing to you over the phone and in the way he did it? Don't you wanna see his face, see his expression, give him a hug and kiss when you say "Yes!"? Other than wanting to marry her, how is anything he did considered sweet here? He went against her wishes in how she wanted it (and I don't think she has a script of exactly the way she would want it and no other way would do, but I think she knows which ways she does not want it to be, which is more important really). It sounds more like this guy thought he could reel her in for the catch by putting her on the spot in public, thinking that maybe she would cave in anyway even though she didn't want it like that.. and to be on Valentine's to boot, he probably thought she would eat it up, and he could get away with not having to go through the whole production of it being in person and sweating it out- he could do it comfortably far away and not even be with her at the time.. sounds like a copout to me, trying to make it easier on himself. I think with the way he handled it, he got what he deserved out of that.. although it may have been taken a bit too far in terms of keeping them on the air and having them go at it more over the airwaves like that.. as soon as she made it clear that it was a "no", they should have taken it private and discussed it.. but to them, it's the heat of the moment there and they just keep talking to each other, and as for the radio people, we know how they are and ya know they had to think they had a good thing goin there to get something like that on air, so of course they were gonna let it go longer.. it was up to the couple to stop and talk about it in private.

My 1st thought when I heard this was that it was a joke and I still think that maybe it was...but I could be wrong......if it wasen't a joke then I have to agree with foxx.  The gf made it obvisous that they had discussed this in the past.  And the bf had obvisously told her he was going to do it from the radio or something like that for her to make the comments she did.  How is she a control freak or anything else for just wishing the day he propose to her be something special?  I mean doesn't everyone have dreams about how the day of their engagment and wedding go?  Does that make everyone control freaks for wanting it a certain way?!?

in defense of the radio station.. i listen to these guys every morning and have come to "know" how they are... and after everything was said and done.. they were as shocked as we were.. so i dont think they tried to keep it longer.. dennis is a good guy and was just as uncomfortable... liz was laughing cuz she laughs in tense situations..  they discussed the happenings right after the call... they arn't evil radio people... i love these guys..  ;D

i thought it was sweet cuz i would have appreciated something like that... now i know every woman is different.    i still think it's sweet. the guy wanted everyone to hear him ask his girl to marry him.. he sounded very nervous.  i thought he was  professin his love.. askin someone to marry him over the RADIO.  .. i think its romantic.  if u already talked about marriage.. where is the element of surprise when he asks you?  you go out to dinner.. you know he's going to ask you..   getting a call over the radio.. lol.. tha's spontinaity..   the guy couldn't wait to ask his love to marry..  and he made a mistake in her eyes..

6 mon is TOO EARLY for marriage in my eyes.. but hey.. some get married the night they meet in vegas!!! O0

we discussed some proposal topics in the earlier pages of the thread.   i dont think it makes us controll freaks at all.

Hi Guys
I am late at posting as usual...I think this is a set up..Listen to it again carefully..I think it ws just a prank set up between the two of them to get on the radio...Doesn't sound real at all...Poor guy if it is though she is an evil cow to embarrass him live on air but it's the risk you take I am afraid when you do something THAT public and as a suprise..Just my view  O0

if it was not a joke than i think that the woman is stupid yeah she had her ideal situation but what is the point in that he goes out n wines n dines her she'll know the question is coming i thought he was so sweet it shows how much he loves her if he's prepared to propose on the air to all those people id give anything to have a guy like that i dont want a guy 2 propose how i want coz you can see it coming id love to be surprised like that.

At 46 I stand a much better chance of being kidnapped by terrorists than ever being remarried again.
