Chris' Diabolical Engagement Plan

[@Arissiah]

My husband had an entire SAGA of failing to propose. He kept having plans and then something went wrong FOR SIX MONTHS until he just decided to give up and turn to me one day and tell me "before something happens again, will you marry me" and gives me the ring

[@aokyoutsuki7744]

Daww

[@adiazrue5776]

Please tell us what shenanigans that made your husband fail to propose to you

[@Arissiah]

@@adiazrue5776 oh man, I don't want to write a whole book in the youtube comments but I'll give a few examples. (I only found out about these events keeping him from doing it after he finally proposed) Looking for the ring in December, picked out a beautiful custom ring I would have absolutely loved ->jeweler immediately goes on vacation before he can order it (He ended up asking me what kind of rings I like and just got a different one though) In January he took me to see my favorite band in concert -> forgot the ring at home My birthday is the end of January, so he wanted to do something simple and bring me a giant teddy bear with the ring -> gets out of work that day and all the big teddy bears are sold out and he spent so long searching for one I was getting sad, so not the best mood Was going to try again around valentines day -> his car broke down and was down and out for the whole month of February. Couldn't really go anywhere and that repair bill was pretty bad And it just kept going like that until like around June or July when he turns to me before going to work to ask me that, and then after he got out of work, he said he wanted to do it right at least, so he took me out to a nice dinner and got on one knee then and asked me again. I told him he could have even done that from the beginning but I loved all his effort anyway (Oops that's still pretty long)

[@aokyoutsuki7744]

​@@ThePatxiaothe fact that his response to "what're your opinions on marriage?" Is "marriage cringe inn'it?"

[@ChantalRussell]

Chris’s plan to play it cool and throw Sharla off the trail is literally the same plot twist as when Chandler proposed to Monica in Friends. It didn’t go well for Chandler either.

[@bakaichigo]

Omg :'D

[@kuroakikitsune]

Connors would be in a crane game, and you have to win the ring 😂

[@DragonEdge10]

Gets one of the workers to sumimasen for him and grab the ring lol

[@Yousifzzz]

I still just can’t believe Chris’s thought process, it’s sounds like the goofiest shit on earth, it’s almost like an evil plot.

[@winkblink8636]

It's okay Chris and Garnt. I effed up my engagement too. I took my fiancé around memory lane took her to lunch where we had our first date. Had some of her favorite food for dinner did some other cute things but I planned too much for the day and it got so late that the park I was going to purpose at, where we had our first kiss was closed off as well. This was in Bangkok near Chulalongkorn University. Who closes up a public park!? My wife sussed me out too and I was acting aloof as to if I'll ever get a ring saying I'm broke or whatever but made her walk to an abandoned park and sneak in late at night, almost missing the mrt before they closed, it was too dark to take a good picture but thankfully she said yes.

[@emilywyl1]

My engagement was my now husband had been taking the piss over the years (he worked on the bins) by bringing home empty jewellery boxes and "proposing" until 6 years of it he actually proposed for real in our dining room both still in work clothes and my response was f**k off you're taking the piss 😂

[@_marou_]

It became the norm lmao

[@Jin-1337]

He's a keeper❤

[@SundaraRamanR]

I can't help but imagine that in a really northern accent, like a Maisie Adam or Lucy Beaumont voice going "fock off you're taekin the piiss" 😄

[@ReeseDarknessB]

My wife is super basic in the best ways she loved Olive Garden we had our first real dinner date at Olive Garden so I like Garnt was like perfect we will go and I will propose it will be awesome. It’s of course packed as normal but this is good I want the spectacle you know. So while there right after I order a bottle of wine for us some mofo two tables over gets out of his chair and proposes the restaurant patrons all go nuts and clap….. meanwhile I’m pissed like how is this guy stealing my shonen moment. So of course I can’t do this now so we clap congratulate this couple and eat our food. We head home and I’m stil mad she could tell I was upset. 1 I had this shit planned 2 she was heading home the next day. So I was like f it we get back to my place I had a load of laundry in the trunk from the night before I was like babe could you pull that for me. She gave me dagger eyes of course but she went a did it anyway and when she turned around with the basket I was on a knee ring out. Anyway 13 years later we still married with 2 kids and hey we have a story to tell!

[@MajorMalfunction]

My proposal was literally as Chris said. "Sitting on the couch. Marriage, innit." :)

[@thisrandomdude_]

That's hilarious hahahah, congratulations to the both of you :>

[@rebelminxy8516]

It's nice and sweet how Garnt and Chris went for that sweet middle ground when proposing and yet they still made it super memorable and funny. (Poor Sharla the trauma but it was def made up to her!) But no joke, a treasure hunt as an engagement moment does sound kinda fun.

[@hcrparamore]

Well i'll make this short, when i proposed to my fianceé, i did it on new year's eve, it was the count down, and obviously when we hit the "happy new years" celebration and scream i kneeled down and at first she thought i was getting a really bad cramp on my thigh (this happens once a month in the middle of the night, it's a thing for me) but then she saw the ring and she cried and all went well.

[@Versilius]

I will make this short, I'm alone

[@VFbyVince]

Lesson learn boys don't propose in the UK lol

[@JustPlainRob]

That's the most Barry Chopsticks way of proposing I can imagine.

[@OBIIIIIIIII]

Welcome to the UK, all we have is rain, wind, rocks and scaffolding

[@Kae-Lexi]

I kept watching some UK magnet fishing channels, and without fail, every spot they ever fished in they would pull out a goddamn scaffolding clamp... or 5

[@fedupN]

It is heartening to hear others proposal hiccupa. When I proposed to my wife, I took her up to a place we loved, middle of autumn, since we loved the harvest and halloween goodness. ...and when we got up there is was raining buckets. So we go from tent to vendor tent over sodden muddy ground...and finally I find a big one, lit up and dry. While she looks around the store, I bust out the pumpkin id carried around in my backpack with "will you marry me?" On it. But the stupid ring is stuck in the bag! So i panick, rip it open, slide it on stem, whip around, put the pumpkin down and get on one knee. Utter silence. My heart is hammering in my throat, my knee is wet and muddy, and im about freaking panic. Then, she finally deciphers my terrible handwriting and says...yes. She didnt even notice the ring on the stem and couldnt read my "serial killer" handwriting, as she puts it. She was more worried I was gonna bury her in a field out back or something, giving her a permanent marker scribbled pumpkin way out away from civilization. 😆😅

[@dankvader420]

This is unironically an ingenious way to propose, disregarding the crying bit.

[@roxychic367]

Guys don’t joke with engagements, happy surprises are ok but if they cry in sadness you went to far

[@Pgresham3]

Marriage to the right person is great. So glad you guys are making a commitment. After my boy friend graduated from college.......Me, Should we get married? Him, I thought we would. That was 50 years ago.

I would have been careful with this whole “leaving sharla astray” when it came to the proposal cause the way this story is being told kinnda sounds like gaslighting 😬 I really hope this wasn’t the intent but the whole manipulation tactic and how bad she responded to it gives it not a good feeling in my stomach. I would have picked a different conversion 😅

They know that, they aren't fucking idiots. It's just that brits love to complain. Plus it was shitty timing for them.

[@jc3drums916]

1) It doesn't do them any good at that exact moment in time; 2) It isn't relevant to the story, so there's no point in mentioning it. Doesn't mean they don't realize it.

[@mmack6305]

That was the worst plan. You know what would have been better then telling her he never planned to get married and it was rubbish? Saying nothing. Just having a nice trip. What a twat.

[@anasianemo]

As someone who worked at a hair brand for years I do and will defend Connor continuously about the not washing your hair too often thing 🫡

[@lodevijk]

My hair has never been more healthy ever since I stopped using shampoo

[@fireroum]

Absolutely not. I get fungal infections if i don't wash my scalp regularly enough. It really depends on the individual. Don't wash your hair, wash your scalp.

[@anasianemo]

@@fireroum Yes, it does depend on the person. It could be every other day. Or every two days. Some people wash it every day or twice a day, even though it does not get greasy/they have textured hair and then they wonder why it’s so dry. Dandruff is indeed often caused by the overgrowth of the Malassezia fungus/yeast. They feed on the oils/sebum on the scalp. But if you’re not someone who deals with that often and your hair texture can’t handle it then it really is not needed to go as far as washing it daily. It’s also important that people are aware that ketoconazole shampoo is used to treat the fungal overgrowth and realise that by just washing their hair more often it doesn’t get rid of the fungus. However if the persons job causes their head to get oily, sweaty, smelly, dusty etc then yes washing it is important, as long as it is a gentle shampoo. So bottom line is: figure it out for yourself lol and if Connor says his hair is okay then it probably is and people shouldn’t judge.

[@anasianemo]

@@fireroum Oh and in addition. Yeah the fungal scalp thing sucks. I deal with that too, but I also have textured coarse wavy long hair THAT IS ALSO BLEACHED AND DYED 💀 so if I do wash it every day then rip… so what you said about washing your scalp is really true. One hairdresser tip for that is to load your ends with conditioner or a good mask and put the shampoo or treatment on the scalp and massage it in WELL before even thinking of rinsing it through.
