Woman accepts boyfriend's public proposal to avoid embarrassing him in front of family, later rejects him behind closed doors: ‘Now I have to tell everyone we’re not engaged'
Welcome, women of the World Wide Web. The internet is filled with videos of men getting down on one knee, putting their hearts on the line, and popping the big question. Some proposals are so heartfelt and wholesome that they bring millions of viewers to tears over a couple of strangers. Other proposal videos garner clicks, shares, and likes for the opposite reasons.
