If you watch the video, this guy is lucky she has a sense of humor.

It's kind of nice that he made this video, but couldn't they watch it home.

This reminds me of the short story, In Dreams Begin Responsibilities by Delmore Schwartz. The narrator is watching his parent courtship in an old movie theater, yelling at them not to do it.

This girl would be a fool to marry this guy. In fact - she should fool him.

Agree to a wedding only to be a no show. Gaslighting works both ways.

"For months and months and months, I've been gaslighting my girlfriend," Kerby narrated in the Instagram video..."

Indeed, a key to healthy relationships is protracted gaslighting. God help the "boyfriend" who ever did that to my daughter.

If you don’t have honesty you don’t have anything.

If I’d made even one fake proposal to my wife, she would have told me to go away and never come back, and we would not now have been married for going on 24 years. But I knew better.

Still, if that sort of stuff works for this couple, more power to them. I hope they’re happy together, though I wouldn’t risk a large wager on it.

Guy is just figuring out how slow she is to ferret out b.s.Wants to know if he can gaslight her when she suspects he is 1 million in debt to gamblers, or is humping a hottie.
Guy is creepy. She seems dumb.
Sorry, bout the cynicism. Or is it clickbait?

My niece works at Disneyland - she said some idiot wanted to propose to his girlfriend in front of Cinderella’s Castle during peak summer hours - Disneyland said “OK” for a massive price, I think she said around $30k. She had to help clear the area of people, for an hour - inconveniencing families, etc. until the proposal was done.

Anything for the right price..

Yeah a "filmmaker" that has nothing to his name, making the proposal all about him. 2 years max.

"For months I've been gaslighting my girlfriend..."

That's all I would need to hear. I'm out.

When I was in my twenties, had a friend who was dating a guy none of us could stand. We kept warning her about him. (Seriously, if the first thing you do when you move in together is pay off his phone sex calls that are on your bill... and do it by cashing in the Coca-cola stock that grandpa left you... don't just throw him to the curb, but curb stomp him as well.) He did a whole movie production when he proposed to her. Filmed it and everything. (He was a wanna-be movie producer.) Then he gave her a HUGE cubic zirconia ring.

It lasted another 6 months after that, but she DID finally ditch him.
