I don't know what went wrong?
This morning i woke up, walked into the bedroom and saw my g/f asleep with our 3 week old daughter resting peacefully beside her.
I stood there for maybe a minute and thought, this is it. this is all i want right here, right now. Both my g/f and i work, i'm a Teacher, and Sara is a web designer. we're not rich, but we are comfortable, and both of us are 31.
We went to college together and have been a couple for 8 years, over the last 2 years we have been talking about marriage.
Today when i saw then sleeping so beautifully, it hit me hard. i don't want anyone else, i have no other need except my beautiful g/f and out gorgeous daughter.
I made my mind up at that point. I went to the Jewelers, and bought a ring. when i got back Sara was up at work, in the study. i went down on 1 knee and asked her to marry me.
I don't know why, but she took a step back, grabbed the car keys and left.
i know it must have been a shock, but did i do something wrong?

You did it a wonderful way, and sound like a wonderful guy. She was probably is shock that you finally asked! She might have driven to her friends houses or family, or just driven around for a bit in shock, or screaming in the car with happiness!
I know I was stunned when I was proposed to, and it took me a minute to collect my thoughts.
Good luck man!

A very sick mama dog is an extremely stressful situation. And I understand your anger at some of the answers that you received. It is normal for you to want to vent back to these folks some of your anger and frustration. So, try to remain calm and keep your focus on your dog & pups. Don't let this cloud your true goal - a healthy dog. And yes, I would love to know this outcome. Kudos to you for your quick action in caring for 7 pups! It isn't easy! I wish that more people would realize that there are situations that stump even the best of vets. While the calicum issue is the most common with these symptoms, it is not the only cause. And your dedication to this dog and her pups is very, very admirable. So, you know that you are responding to this crisis in the best manner possible. You are doing all you can do in an extremely difficult situation. Let God sort out the rest. Peace

I'm sure this isn't news to you. But, man to man, I think you clearly did do something wrong: you waited through 8 years and a baby BEFORE proposing marriage. I don't mean to make you feel guilty, but you gotta be honest with yourself about that. Your recent resolution is wonderful, but now I reckon you are paying the price for all your previous irresolution.
Be patient and tolerant, have faith in her! She just had a baby, now this is more change. Let her have some control over the situation now. All you can do is wait and see, don't force anything. I know you must feel absolutely terrible, but you can tough it out for a best shot at what's most important in your life, right?

waiting as long as you did may be the problem. But i really dont think so. Are you sure she hasnt had second thoughts about your relationship. That would be the only thing to make me run. If i was having thoughts about not being with the guy any more and all of a sudden he proposed i would be like oh sh*t what do i do and probably run. You two really need to talk........

It could be some hormones have put her a bit out of normal. Its only been 3 weeks since the baby, so she could also just feel overwhelmed.
Either way, I think this is something you need to talk to your girlfriend and not the internet about.
Good luck

No you didnt she is in shock and probably real tired from dealing with your 3 month old baby just ask her what is wrong and that she can take all time she wants to answer reassure her you are not going anywhere

maybe she was just so shocked since you guys have been together so long that she had to take a little breather. when she gets back talk to her. if you have been talking about marriage then she should have known that this would come. also she just had a baby so the hormones might be readjusting

You did the right thing!!! but ,you were a little bit late to ask her for marriage. The only thing, what you need is to check your relation and your honesty. If you are OK with these things, then she will be back.
I wish you a good day

im sorry. but i dont think u did something wrong. maybe she was shocked and she didnt know what to do or was confused at that moment. maybe she wasnt expecting it or u didnt gave her any reason to think that you would propose to her. but give her time, i am sure she can decide well then. i hope you two will have a great life ahead.

Sounds like you did the right thing. Try telling her everything you wrote here, you know, how she is the only one you want. Give her some time and ask again.
