Woman makes claim for most unromantic proposal ever
This didn't go to plan
A gentleman (or perhaps not) has delivered what could be the most unromantic proposal ever to his girlfriend.
Despite all of the fluffy romantic stories about proposals out there in the world, this one got people talking for all the wrong reasons.
One stunned woman took to Reddit to highlight the unromantic event. Describing the moment, she said “He walks in the door from work and tells me about how his friend got married at the city hall today, so he started looking into some things.” Sounds promising, wait until you hear the rest…

She went on to add “He sets his laptop out on the table and shows me the spreadsheet he made about how much additional income us getting married would bring in for him, and explained that there was really no risk involved in case of divorce because we could just sign prenups."
"And he was like 'so, do you want to go get married? We can do it literally anytime at the city hall'.
"And then I realised what he was actually asking. I asked him if he was asking me to marry him and he said yes - and I told him no, and so it ensued from there."
Despite his unthoughtful proposal, the unnamed lady explained she didn’t have an issue with his procedure, more so the fact he referred to her as a ‘financial asset’ and mentioned divorce.
Lucky for her boyfriend she has decided to stay with him, adding: “Hopefully I can find a way to explain to him that he made me feel like he just wants the extra money each month, not a real marriage.”
What a charmer!
