There has been a video trending of a young couple about
their late twenties where the lady declined the gentleman’s marriage proposal
in front of everybody, and he resulted to taking off her shoes and packing the
food they were eating together in a plastic bag. It turns out he was not so
gentlemanly after all; some may argue that it was the only way he could express
himself after investing in someone. But the fate of their relationship was
sealed, no further explanation was needed there.
The man’s reaction in the video got me thinking, should the
relationship end if she says no? I believe a healthy and functional
relationship should have goals and objectives, and one of the end goals should
be marriage, and if not, then why be in a relationship in the first place?
