Another Classy Proposal

Written by Bryce

How not to propose (to Bryce Gruber, anyway)…

I know we’re constantly featuring really heartwarming proposals and displays of affection on this site, but I’d like to make a desperate plea now (to anyone that gives a damn). Marriage is a big effing deal. It’s not a casual roadside sign. It’s not something meant to be discussed beneath a display of gasoline options. I think (and who am I say to, really?) that marriage is supposed to be pretty permanent and that the point of the whole shabang isn’t a public show. You don’t need your proposal on a damn jumbotron… it doesn’t mean he loves you more. I’m sure I’ve offended some of you out there because I’m sure some of your dudes popped the question in a helicopter that was circling “will you marry me, Dana?” in skywriting or something, so it should be noted that I’ve never been married and I’m hardly an expert. Merci.

  • Embarrassing enough…this IS actually across the street from a Waffle House. It’s in my hometown, I’m literally ashamed.
