3. Under the northern lights

"I proposed to my partner in Iceland. I wanted to do it under the northern lights, so I kept looking out for it every day. So I decided to do this next to one of the geysers in a national park and had a whole speech prepared about how like the opposing forces of nature have created this landscape, we created a life together against all odds and to symbolise it I would place a piece of rock forged in fire and ice as my "engagement stone". When the time came I was overwhelmed. Somehow my partner understood that I was proposing and said yes. That night I looked out and witnessed aurora borealis in the sky," WokeSonofNone on Reddit

4. The "I love you" after awhile

"I called him up to meet me, and I just said that I wanted to be his girlfriend. I tried to be as casual as possible but still, it was quite awkward and I was stammering from the nervousness and was blushing and sweating. I have dropped hints many times before but he didn't seem to pick it, up or was purposefully ignoring it. I guess he liked me too, but he was too shy to tell me anything, so I had to grow a pair and ask him out. He didn't reply to me instantly but his whole body was shaking to the point that I thought he was having a seizure. He dropped me off at my place and that was it. I thought he was not interested in me and felt so heartbroken and played with me and started to cry. A few hours later I got a text from him telling me that he loved me too. I ignored it as I was upset and angry at him, after like 15 minutes I got a long text from him explaining why he had acted so weird and was so awkward earlier. Turns out, he had fallen in love back in high school and it got complicated. Since then, he had never bothered to ask anyone out since then. We're committed now and planning to get married soon," I Like Pink Tops on Reddit.

Little did I know, as we hurried through Hosgsmeade, there was an even better surprise waiting on the bridge overlooking Hogwarts!"

"My partner and I were travelling back to my college campus in an auto from Chennai Central. He had come to pick me up and drop me off. He was working in Chennai then. So this question was boiling in my mind for some time so I just asked him, let's get married? And he was puzzled but said yes. Married for 3 years now. I'm just grateful he didn't say, eyy maarikkolum like he did when I told him I liked him. That's a story for another day," arappottan on Reddit.

7. The surprise reservation

"This was last year. We were both back in our respective houses doing WFH. I had wanted to meet her for our fifth anniversary. But her parents are pretty strict, they knew about us, so she said it wouldn't be possible. I had planned on proposing on our anniversary. I called up her uncle/aunt( they are cool, they had a love marriage of their own) and told them my plan. They brought her to the restaurant where I had made the reservation. She was really surprised to see me. We wined and dined. Took a walk along a lake after dinner. I asked her if this was the biggest surprise that I had given her. She said yes. I told her that I had one more, got on one knee and asked her if she would marry me. She said yes!," rage transfer king on Reddit.
