I had a girlfriend asking me like twice a week for a year- when I was going to propose and then I did and she said no.

When they ask you like that.. it's the cue o have a conversation on the F-ing subject. What are your hopes and dreams, kids, quick wedding or elaborate.. you know.. discuss what the future would hold together.

Once you have had those conversations you also know what the answer to a proposal will be.

We did all of that but then her mom got her into the church again and she decided she wanted someone who went to the same church and after she said no she told me maybe if I joined her church. Her church beat two children to death trying to expel demons and the pastor had a big private jet so I couldn't join that church. Edit: besides the church thing, she didn't believe in evolution and wasn't going to teach her kids that evolution was real, a big problem for me. I might delete this stuff later, I never share online

Sounds like you dodged a large bullet there

Yeah, life sucks and that experience sucked, but it would be much worse
