‘He stole her moment’ Not everyone is impressed by THIS proposal
Proposals are a touchy subject.
Some women give it very little thought while others have a strict set of guidelines which their other halves should adhere to before getting down on one knee.
From public proposals to stealing another day's limelight, men seem to have a hard time getting it right in the court of public opinion – something which the new fiancé of silver medalist He Zi has recently learned.
After coming second in the women's 3m diving, He Zi watched her boyfriend, Qin Kai, get down on one knee in front of billions before popping that all-important question, and not everyone is impressed by his timing.
"Am I the only one who would be a bit upset?" wrote one Reddit user. "I love you babe,but please don't steal the moment of Olympic glory I've busted my ass to achieve."
"Unpopular opinion: I don't think it's nice to put a lady on the spot like that, it feels like your forcing her to say "Yes"," added another.
While some argued that He Zi's boyfriend shouldn't have proposed in front of such an enormous audience and others insisted that he majorly failed on timing front, the die-hard romantics online had his back.
"She won silver, but he gave her the gold," wrote one Reddit user who we're guessing is responsible for the greetings in Valentine's Day cards.
Would you have said yes?
