    My now husband Lucas (26) and I (F,25) were getting married.

    We decided to tie the knot as we were having a little girl together and are madly in love. So leading up to the wedding day Lucas told me that his best man (Jacob) wanted to propose to his girlfriend as it would be a great time and it is a nice venue to do it at.

I just wanted the wedding to be about us because it was our special day. After that disagreement I thought nothing of it.

    Fast forward to my wedding day. We had finished the church service and now we're at the reception were all having fun eating. I'm eating my food and then Jacob stops the music at the DJ booth to make an announcement. I just knew from that moment he was going to propose. I look to see where Lucas was and he was holding red and white roses walking out to stand in front of Chloe(Jacob's girlfriend)spelling out.

    "Will you marry me?"I was shocked that they went behind my back when I said no. I got up out of seat and walked out. It's been 2 days since the wedding and my husband cursed me out for not letting them have a special moment. I responded with "I wanted

    lostalldoubt86 2 days ago Craptain [166] NTA NTA NTA They are SO many posts here and on the revenge forums about who propose at other peoples' weddings. It's a terrible thing to do and I'm surprised his girlfriend didn't turn down the engagement for doing something like that. If he wanted a nice venue,

    he should have paid for a nice dinner or something, NOT use a celebration you just spend thousands of dollars on to make it about him. I would be requesting the cost of their meals back.

    The fact that your new husband went behind your back is also pretty terrible. Your friends who are cursing out on social can be easily removed from your life. Your husband, though. I think this is something that will have to be discussed in couples' counseling so he can see what a selfish backhanded thing he did. Reply Share 16.2k ●●●

    Odd-Strike3217 2 days ago I totally agree. Married at 24 and it was so easy to dismiss or explain so many back then. Now I see it for what it is. Unfortunately this person is now forever linked whether the marriage is staying or not.

    But the biggest lesson I've learned - actions not words are what matter. Words can be used to nullify and justify, but if their actions don't meet them, that's who they are. Him not prioritizing her is the most obvious scary part of me. But also who wants this as their proposal? Yuck! 1.2k Reply Share
