Matters of the heart! He proposed, I said ‘No’ but now I want to say ‘Yes’

My name is Mary, I heartlessly said ‘No’ to my boyfriend of three years a month ago, embarrassing him before his friends, my friends and some few family members because I thought I wasn’t ready.

I really wasn’t expecting the proposal, he totally caught me offguard on my birthday and I was scared, I gave him all the looks of ‘please don’t do this’ when he dropped on his knees and brought out the ring, but he went ahead to propose.

I said ‘No’, I broke his heart! Every night since then, I keep seeing his eyes as I snatched my fingers from his grasp and mouthed the word ‘No’ repeatedly.

He expected me to jump for joy, scream and dance or even cry for joy but wasn’t expecting the response he got.


I love David, I really do, but I just wasn’t ready for the proposal thing plus I somehow lost it that night and got scared.

David (31) has refused to talk to me, he travelled immediately and won’t get in touch. I have tried to apologize and explain things, but he is not reading my messages. I can’t call him!

I only try through the social media but he is not reading them!

I am sorry, I love him, I want to say ‘Yes’… How do I go about this, I heard he’s gone to South Africa to cool off after the blow I dealt him.

Help me, I am 24… I would rather marry David now than wait for another man.

I guess he has moved on...u better move on with ur life instead of trying to open an old wound.

If am david, there s no second chance cos am not ready to live in fear with my life partner as I may do or ask for something like food or....and like joke she will take her leave saying she wasn't prepared to do so, that I took her unawares!

David did the right thing nd is still doing the right thing.

Why do some girls think they can eat their cake and have it all the time

After turning him down in front of his friends and family , you now want him back...
I swear sometimes forgiveness is the most difficult thing to do

You embarrassed yourself not him for declining his proposal.

If you need him, why not travel to South Africa and apologize publicly to him which of course would be a waste of time, money and energy.

Anyway he did the right thing. Once bitten, twice shy.

Am not surprised, So many of you are confused.

I pray he neva comes back to u sef...may he find someone beta dan u

How can someone be so indecisive.

I sympathise with you. I think it's best you give him enough time to cool off before trying to contact him or you can try reaching him through someone very close to him. Ps I don't think you did anything wrong. When it comes to marriage you have to be sure.
