'I honestly had no desire to live there': Woman Publicly Calls of Wedding After Fiancé Surprises Her with a Fixer-Upper House in Front of Friends

Relationships are a beautiful mix of compromise, communication, and realizing that nothing—absolutely nothing—is ever truly just your decision anymore. Want to repaint the living room? It's suddenly a two-hour discussion about color palettes. Considering a new couch? That'll require a whole Pinterest mood board and heated debates over leather versus fabric. And buying a house? Well, just don't do what this man did…

What happens when one partner skips the joint decision memo and goes full rogue on a major life choice? In this case, it wasn't just a spur-of-the-moment couch purchase or a surprise vacation. It was a fixer-upper house, bought without so much as a "hey, what do you think about this huge investment of our time and money?" This Redditor's fiancé decided to surprise her with a home out of the blue. Instead of sparking joy like he anticipated, it led to a broken engagement. In public, nonetheless. Was her reaction fair, or did she overreact?
