Is Saying No to a Proposal That Hard?

A viral video is making waves online, showing a female corps member rejecting a marriage proposal from a Man O’ War commander.

It was a chaotic scene as her fellow corps members were screaming that she had already accepted, while she struggled to get away but the commander wasn’t giving up.

He forced the ring into her hand, even as she stiffened her fingers in protest.

Netizens are calling out the man for rushing into a proposal after just three weeks of dating. Others believe he was simply in love, but the lady only saw him as a meal ticket during camp.

Marriage is a lifelong decision, not a camp activity and no one should feel pressured into saying yes just because people are watching.

The way this lady was forced to accept the ring wasn’t romantic, it was uncomfortable. If she truly wanted to say yes, she wouldn’t have fought to get away.

Love should be about mutual feelings, not forcing someone into a commitment they don’t want.

Three weeks is barely enough to know someone deeply, let alone decide on forever. Camp relationships are fun, but they don’t always last.

The excitement of a new connection can make people rush into things, mistaking infatuation for love. A serious relationship needs time, understanding, and mutual effort.

Love should be a choice, not something forced on someone in front of a crowd.

At the end of the day, a proposal should be about love, not pressure. If it’s meant to be, it will happen naturally.
