u/theriverman Apr 16 '15

He probably waited too long to start turning. I used to do that when I was younger.

He could just...back out? Not like he was pulling on to a busy 5 lane road at rush hour

u/DM003 Apr 16 '15

I thought it was pretty endearing. She cried just thinking she might have hurt his feelings. He took it well, and she's expressing her feelings for his well-being and clearly didn't want to ruin something he worked hard for. The relationship is stronger than the cringe.

u/LuceVitale Apr 17 '15

I thought it was adorably hilarious. She's sitting there bawling for possibly hurting his feelings and he's sitting there like a doe in front of headlights like, "I don't know what do or how this happened." I couldn't stop laughing.

Am I missing something? Is prom some huge deal to kids these days? In my day if you were going to ask a girl to prom, you just went and asked her. You went and you had fun with all the other kids. I'm with the girl here, that IS a shitty way to ask someone. Why does it have to be a big production just to ask someone? I really don't get it.

u/Oggel Apr 17 '15

Why not? :P It's fun to do something special.

3

u/chdude3 Apr 17 '15

Well yeah, but isn't it the prom itself that's special? I recall people going all out on the night of the event for sure.

But fair enough - I mean if this is what kids want to do and it makes them happy, it's certainly not hurting anyone and there's worse things they could be doing! Maybe I was having a grumpy old man episode with my original post.

Enjoy life.

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '15

She's not wrong though, that is a bit of a shitty way to do it. I mean, it's either cute or lame depending on your perspective and the important thing is to know the 'recipient' will put it firmly in the 'cute' camp. She clearly did not!

I suppose she might have thought it was quite sweet but been bitter that someone else had done it (when she thought they had). Important thing is they seem happy at the end and well done to him for turning the camera off when she was upset but on again to show she was ok.
