She fully believes that her best friend’s heart is going to be broken upon seeing her boyfriend’s loved ones there when she’s proposed to and not her own.
She was so furious that she phoned up her best friend’s boyfriend, who was reluctant to share information about the proposal with her.
Eventually, he blurted out to her that this was his thing, and he invested a lot of money and time into it so he can propose how he wants, and she should stand down and be excited for her friend.
He then said to her it wasn’t like she would be attending the wedding, which really set her over the edge. Later on, she ended up seeing her best friend’s parents while out getting groceries, and she “sublty” questioned them about if her best friend’s boyfriend had gotten their permission to propose.
It’s worth noting that her best friend has stated to her before that she expects her boyfriend to ask her parents for her hand in marriage prior to proposing, as she believes in that traditional aspect.
“My friend wears her heart on her sleeve, and I can predict how this event will go down when she sees all of his close friends and family and none of hers,” she said.
“Considering her previous sentiments about his lack of interest in her family/life, she will 100% see this as being hurtful and selfish, and I know she’ll cry. To make matters worse, the location of the proposal is a whopping 30 minutes from her parents’ home. I don’t want to get involved in a fight or reveal the surprise, but on the other hand, I feel I owe it to my lifelong friend to help her avoid being hurt and disappointed, maybe even helping her rethink what her future would look like with someone who just doesn’t really appreciate what she values in life.”
She’s left wondering if it would be wrong of her to alert her best friend to how her boyfriend is planning to propose to her. What do you think?
