Today, I told my boyfriend of ten months that I'm not ready for marriage. A few hours later he proposed at my grandma's 85th birthday party. She cried when I said no. FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

At 10 months, I'm surprised he proposed. Of course it depends on what your age is. He's stupid for going through with the proposal even though you clearly said you aren't ready. And it's sad grandma is disappointed, but honestly, it's not her relationship. She should stay out of it.

Trying to pressure you into marring him? That's not cool.

The jerk wanted to make everyone feel bad.

I don't really know the whole story or what you guy's relationship is like, but those are telltale signs of a manipulative abuser, and kind of seems like a red flag to me. (I don't really like throwing up the abuser card like that but I've known people like that.)

proposing isn't getting married. short dating long engagement.

Break up with him. He's disrespectful and obviously pushy.

Wow what a dick move, FYL.

If you've been friends for 10 years I could see this, but if you only met shortly before dating, its too soon.

Keeping in mind engagement doesn't mean you have to get married anytime soon, exactly. There are people who stay engaged for two or three years, try living together and all that. Still, it was shitty of him to do, and I'm sorry you got stuck with that.
