Woman Disappointed After Boyfriend Of 8 Years Gives Her Engagement Ring Without Kneeling

• The young woman expected a dramatic proposal where the boyfriend goes down on one knee, looks into her eyes, and asks her to marry him
• He didn't, perhaps trying not to look like the so-called simps in front of his boys
• Instead of all the theatrics, the man gave her a box with the engagement ring and told her, "This should make you happy"

A woman who was recently engaged is not as excited as she expected. Reason? The boyfriend didn't kneel while proposing to her.

The disappointed lady lamented that she hoped the man, whom she'd dated for eight years, would put more effort into the proposal.

According to The Mirror, the bride-to-be admitted that the below-par marriage proposal shattered her romantic dreams.

The woman disclosed that they were on a camping trip when her lover left her behind in a kayak as he went out to fish.

“I cried to myself for over an hour that it wasn't going to happen since he didn't propose at any beautiful hiking viewpoints, or sunsets through the week," she said.

When they brought the kayaks in after fishing late into the night, the man went to the truck, came back, and handed her a ring box, saying, "This should make you happy."

When she complained about the engagement, the boyfriend promised to make up for it, but he never did and didn't even acknowledge the anniversary of their engagement.

The two are planning their wedding in a few months, but the woman says she can't move on from the proposal.

"I cry when friends get beautiful engagements, I cry watching romcoms. I feel nothing but disappointment that I will never experience the gesture of love I dreamed about my whole life,” she said.

The woman also revealed that memories of the disappointing proposal come flooding her mind anytime they argue.

Her woes are made worse because she doesn't enjoy looking at the beautiful engagement ring as it doesn't bring her a happy memory.
