1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: Welcome to another episode of I Tell You What. All right,

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: what's your proposal here? Dubs?

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 2: All right, So Beth and Steve have been dating for

4
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 2: six months. Steve wants to pop the question to Beth. Well,

5
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 2: Beth is a widow. Her late husband passed away about

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 2: little less than three years ago.

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: And is this a talk back thing?

8
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So I just want to know is it

9
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: wrong for her to reject this proposal? Because Beth and

10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: Steve they were on her family vacation and at the dinner,

11
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: Steve decided, Hey, I'm gonna go ahead and pop this question,

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: even though she doesn't want to get married.

13
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 1: We'll just see if she changes her mind.

14
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 2: Oh well, he popped the question then took Beth several

15
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 2: seconds before she said no.

16
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: So she did say no right in front of the

17
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 1: family and everything good for her? Yeah, she said no,

18
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: Bolt it out of there.

19
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: They talked the next day and Steve said that his

20
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,160
Speaker 2: logic was that he thought if her family was around

21
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 2: and everything was good, that she changed her mind.

22
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 1: I think she laid the rules down beforehand. I think

23
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: the family thing made it worse.

24
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 3: So they had talked about this before, and she made

25
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 3: it clear that she doesn't want to get married again, right,

26
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 3: and then he did it just in front of the family.

27
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, hoping that she would change her mind. He probably

28
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: had a couple he was reading the room. Everyone was

29
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: happy and she was happy, and if he had a.

30
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 3: Ring, he was planning that, which is kind of slimy

31
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 3: honestly that I don't know. That's I hate.

32
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: I'm not defending it. I'm just saying the mood he

33
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: probably gauged in his mind. He's probably thinking, this is

34
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: everybody's getting along so well, and little did he know

35
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: that he dropped an a bomb on the whole thing. Yeah.

36
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 3: But then, like they talked about it before, and if

37
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 3: she said no, I think he's just.

38
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 2: Trying to manipulate the situation, like, hey, her family's around,

39
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 2: she can't say no.

40
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 3: Peer pressure. I feel like that is kind of a

41
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 3: thing with some public proposals. I think sometimes where people

42
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 3: are like, how can you say no?

43
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,600
Speaker 1: I was a public I did a public proposal? You did?

44
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 3: But she said yes.

45
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: She knew that well. She asked me to marry your

46
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: six months beforehand, and I said yes, and I said,

47
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: I still want to ask you, well I did. I

48
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: wanted to make it my own way. Yes, but no,

49
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: well no, I said, yes, I said, but I wanted

50
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: to I said, I want to leave little room. I

51
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: want to do it in the traditional way. So then

52
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: I proposed her at Renaissance festival and she didn't know

53
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: I was there. She went with her friends.

54
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 3: I love this story.

55
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 1: Then I roared up. I was a knight in shining armor. Well,

56
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: it wasn't really shiny, had a lot of WD forty

57
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: on it, and it stained my pants. But and it

58
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: was really tight, and I thought I was going to

59
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 1: make it a long, elaborate deals tied in the chest,

60
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: I couldn't breathe, and I got down off the horse.

61
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: I thought I was going to pass out and die

62
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,839
Speaker 1: in the heat. And I got down on one knee

63
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: and asked her to marry me. She didn't know who

64
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: I was until I flipped the helmet off. She had

65
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 1: no idea. I flipped the helmet off, and then she

66
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: just literally jumped in the ears like God moved her,

67
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 1: like lifted her up. And it was the weirdest thing.

68
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 1: It was almost like she levitated. She levitated. It was cool,

69
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: that's so cute. Here we are here, we are here,

70
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: you are see.

71
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 3: But that worked out well, because you knew what her

72
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 3: answer was going to be, and to do it in

73
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 3: a fun, elaborate way like that. It was no pressure

74
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 3: because you knew it was going to be a yes.

75
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: You just wanted to do it in a special, fun way.

76
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah. What he did?

77
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: This guy, I can't remember his name, Steve, Steve, Okay.

78
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 3: I just feel like his was just not done quite

79
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:10,920
Speaker 3: right in the same way.

80
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: What would make him think that he could do that

81
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: get away with that? What would make him think he

82
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: could change his mind? Did he have the ring or

83
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: was it just a So that's even and she he

84
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: knew she didn't want to get married at all, She

85
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: was never right at this stage, never wanted to get

86
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 1: married again. Yep. I wonder if she ever gave him

87
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: any kind of a sign, not not blaming her at all,

88
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: any sign along the way that maybe that was different

89
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: she maybe she changed her mind, or maybe he's just dumb. Yeah,

90
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: maybe he's thick in the head.

91
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 2: If a woman says, hey, I don't want to get married,

92
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 2: respect her wishes, but I mean you can't go and go, well,

93
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: I'm going to try to get her to change her mind,

94
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 2: because I ultimately that's what I think is that he

95
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: was trying to get her to change her mind this

96
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: whole time. He wants to get married. She doesn't, I

97
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: mean kind of in her sense. I think it just

98
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: seems like a title.

99
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: Ex girlfriend that I had her sister, same thing happened.

100
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 1: He asked her in front of the family on Christmas Eve,

101
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: what you say? Well, she said yes, but she didn't

102
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: want to say yes.

103
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: Did they stay married?

104
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: No, they didn't get married.

105
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, can you imagine?

106
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: You say? Something happened after that and she didn't like

107
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: the way it went down, but she did say yes

108
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,159
Speaker 1: to say fate or you know, just to least embarrass

109
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,799
Speaker 1: them or whatever, and the whole thing was a great big.

110
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 3: There's I just think that that is. I don't know,

111
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 3: just if you don't have a good feeling about it,

112
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 3: if you wouldn't normally say yes, but you're in front

113
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 3: of a bunch of people, so you feel like you

114
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 3: have to say yes.

115
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: Just don't do it. Talk talk back in the iHeartRadio

00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 3: don't want to be engaged to for one second.

119
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: I wonder if there is a is that speaking from experience. No,

120
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 1: I wonder if there is. I just wanted somebody didn't

Speaker 3: no to.

Speaker 3: to do it. Don't know.

130
