AIBU or is this the most romantic proposal ever! (Not)

[GirlOnIt]

Background: we've discussed marriage and all that. Dp had a proposal planned but we've been struggling a bit with adapting to life as parents so I said for him not to ask.

Cue today. Ds isn't well, he's been feeding on and off all day and hasn't slept at all. Dp came home early from work to take over and managed to get him to take some expressed milk and fall asleep, yay

I got a bath while Dp was settling Ds and when I got out he said he'd go get us a McD's, so we could eat and rest before Ds woke again. Not really sure what came over me but I burst into tears and in the midst of comforting me he said "god I love you so fucking much, please marry me". Stood in the kitchen, me with wet hair and wearing one of his t-shirts and not in a cute rom com way, I look a mess.
I mean it's romance novel stuff right? (If I say yes).

Thanks for that congratulations.
Ds is wide awake and joined the celebration. Well he's having breast milk not wine and Dp's got a beer.

Ahh, that's lovely! Congratulations :)

I'm having one small glass of wine, just incase anyone's worrying that I'm drinking and breastfeeding. Dp will be up through the night as well, he copes really well without sleep.

Congrats...that was lovely He came home from work early, got db asleep, you got to get a bath and then he got food...definitely a keeper. Romance kinda changes with a baby on the scene! Especially bf ing one...can you get out to a nice restaurant to...you know...accept or something

Aaaaaawwwww! 🍻 They should so be McDonald's cups! 😂

Awwww OP that's really lovely bless him.

Congratulations to you both

That's lovely, how cute!

It is very lovely and genuine (if a bit late! ) Congratulations!

Aww that's lovely.

Congratulations

Sounds lovely! Congratulations!

Congratulations that’s a lovely proposal me and my DF got engaged last week he was going to ask me on Valentine’s Day but he asked me the night before no big gesture just down on one knee in our flat it was perfect and romantic to me.

That is utterly lovely.

I think that's a really beautiful proposal. He sounds supportive and thoughtful and blurted out what he really felt. Congratulations x

My fella was cooking Christmas dinner when he literally chucked a box at me and said "You might as well have this then."

"This" was my engagement ring.

Big proposal gestures are nice and all but they are highly rehearsed stage productions. What you got was an outpouring of genuine emotion that actually sounds rather lovely.

Congratulations.

This is the kind of everyday, honest and real love I'm looking for. Fancy trips and big gestures are great but these firework moments dotted around the sometimes mundane trials of normal life are what sustains you. Congrats OP and hope you enjoyed the Mc'Ds. X

Oh, and congratulations, your lad sounds decent. :)

Aww that's the perfect proposal. If you don't marry him after that, I'll take him please.

That's better than any contrived, artificially staged proposal could possibly be. I've welled up a bit.

Top notch. I hope you accept.

I think that's actually pretty great.

Congratulations!

Thanks again for the congrats! He can be quite sweet, bless him.

Perfect proposal straight from the heart. Congratulations

I think that's very romantic indeed. Congratulations!

Have the wine. Bit of breast hooch made mine sleep beautifully.
Congratulations.
