Was out with him yesterday and we had a fab day and I got caught up in the moment of being so in love with him and when I went home I txt him and asked him 2 marry me. He said yes and kept asking me was I serious and he was so happy etc, however my prob is I was drunk and didnt mean to ask him I want him to ask me I know it sounds old fashioned but thats the way I want it. I told him this morning that I was drunk when I said it and was so embarrassed. He replied by saying he would marry me today or tomorrow if he could. How do I get out of this one but get him to ask me instead and I not feel so embarrassed. What makes it worse is he went and told his aunt and she is delighted for us.

haha funny.
anyways...
just tell him that "you will marry him, but NOT TOMMORROW ". even if u dont mean it. Say anything 2 get u out of tha situation b4 it spreads everywhere....! Say u need more time and that ur in love with him but...ur not ready 2 settle or something like that. Just get out of the "engangement" frist.
Hope this helps:}

My child, as an Indian once put it, "the arrow is already in the air". There is no way back now.
Look at it this way, perhaps: you wanted him to ask you, and you just did what it took, that is, getting drunk and asking him first. And then, it so happened that he did ask you when he said that he would marry you "today or tomorrow" if he could, and immediately started publicizing the matter. So why the embarrassment, if you got exactly what you wanted?
Just carry on with your marriage plans. In any case this will be a most delightful story to tell your grandchildren.

Aww, honey its not exactly a bad thing. At least you know now that he feels the same. However, you two seem like you are really close. Why dont you be honest with him and say "The reason I am so embarrassed is because I always imagined that I would be the one getting proposed to. I feel like this makes it so unofficial, especially since I was drunk. I still want to be the one getting proposed to... I guess Im a little traditional" and see where that leads. He will probably understand that he is the one who should propose, but you arent putting any pressure on him to do it any time soon.
Dont worry... relax. He loves you. It will all work out.

I would have a conversation with him that went something like this- "I had such an amazing time with you yesterday, it made me never want to be without you. I know we were playing around about getting married, and I can't wait for you to ask me one day when you are ready because you know I will say yes :)"
This would be a good way to indicate you weren't actually proposing but still love him and want him to ask you. The aunt thing probably wont be a big deal because if he was that excited about the possibility of marrying you chances are that he will propose soon after you say this to him and it will take care of itself. And if she ever brings up that you asked first just gloss it over by saying "Yes, we talked about getting married for a while, but I couldn't have been happier when he finally popped the question."

I would just try to not talk about it for a while, and if he brings it up just try to make it seem like "Yeah of course, someday..." and eventually it will pass. The aunt thing is the worst part- because other people exaggerate things and make it more permanent, but if you just lay low on the subject for a while, people will realize you weren't totally serious. It was also good that you told him you were drunk when you said it. At least now he knows that you are open to it and that you want to someday, and when he is totally ready, hopefully he will get you a ring and do it right.

You asked him to marry you via text message? I'm assuming that means you're a teenager.
In that case, just relax. This is really no big deal. You said you were drunk and told him you didn't mean it. End of story. Move on.

That's nothing to be embarrassed about.
So, you took the lead. Great.
If he loves you and wants you for life, he'll react positively. Otherwise go fishing. Many fish in the pond.
He seems weird for telling his aunt before replying to you though.

do you really want to marry him? just tell him that you'd love it if he asked you as well. don't take yours back, just let him know that the tradition is stuck in your mind, i'm sure he'll oblige.
