Didn't See It Coming!

[Maxine821]

I was 6 months pregnant but I was still going to work. I had a part-time retail position mostly to get out of the house and do something; I didn't have a risky pregnancy so I was able to move around. So, it was New Year’s Eve and I just got off from work about 4pm. We had gotten into a little argument the night before and he was getting a little bit of the silent treatment but when he came to pick me up from work he apologized sincerely and we went back to normal. He told me that he wanted to go out to eat and asked if I would be up for it so I said "heck yea" and he wanted to go to one of my fav restaurants. No problems here! And we're off. Get there, eat, enjoy each other, then sleep starts to kick in and I'm ready to go home and it's about 10. We reach home at around 11 and he doesn't want to come to bed. Usually I'm the one up till the wee hours of the night and he's fast asleep but I didn’t even think anything of it. He's pacing the floor, walking in and out of the bedroom. I'm thinking I did something to upset him but can't figure out what. The next thing I know, he's down on one knee, with a ring in his hand and the first thing I could think to do was turn away and say "NO!" But hear me out. I didn't mean no as in "I won't marry you" I meant no as in "I can’t believe this is happening!!" He said "no?" lmao. I turned around and told him "yes" and we had some laughs. Even though it wasn't the most public or extravagant proposal it was unique in its own way and it's my story to tell.

Thank you, thank you, and to this day he still says that he should have come up with something better and I tell him to stop saying that because I was there too and it was beautiful, sincere and sweet and I wouldnt trade that memory for anything else.

[jackshayne0123]

And that's what counts!!! It's the moment and how you two felt, not all the extras

I was also pregnant at the time.  I am a cheerleading coach and we were at the Cupid cheer challenge competition.  I (as always) was a nervous wreck waiting for awards.  The song single ladies came on and my fiancé approached me.  (backstory to single ladies- the year b4 at another comp my cheerleaders went to my FI and danced around him to the song) Anyway...he got down on one knee in front of the crowd and proposed.  It was awesome.   Cheerleading is one of my great loves. so to be proposed to at an event & win 1st place moments later... it was def a memorable moment.
