A dramatic marriage proposal at a local shopping mall took an unexpected turn when a man initially rejected his girlfriend’s public proposal—only to change his answer moments later after pressure from a cheering crowd.
The now-viral incident unfolded in front of stunned shoppers when the woman got down on one knee, ring in hand, and asked her boyfriend to marry her. The man appeared visibly shocked and, after a few seconds of hesitation, shook his head and walked a few steps away.
Video footage shows the crowd gasping and some even booing the man, urging him to reconsider. Amid growing chants of “Say yes! Say yes!”, the woman remained kneeling, clearly emotional but hopeful. After nearly a minute of mounting pressure, the man returned to her side, took the ring, and said, “Yes”—sparking cheers, applause, and a round of smartphone recordings.
Clips of the proposal quickly spread across TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter), where opinions are sharply divided. Some praised the couple’s “fairy-tale ending,” while others criticized both the public proposal and the crowd’s role in swaying his decision.
“That ‘yes’ didn’t look real. He just gave in to the crowd,” one user commented.
“Why propose in public if you’re not 100% sure? This could’ve ended way worse,” another wrote.
Meanwhile, others took a lighter tone: “He said no, but the crowd said yes — democracy wins.”
