Love: Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. I said yes. This caused him...

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. I said yes. This caused him to panic, excuse himself, then take it back via text message a half hour later, claiming he'd been drunk. We live together. When he comes back home, it's going to be very awkward indeed. FML

Today, I was texting my boyfriend about yesterday, where he told me how much he loved me, and he wishes we lived closer. I asked him if he really meant it. Turns out he was drunk, and had no idea what he was talking about. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news. When I excused myself to the restroom, I overheard his mom say, "I thought you were going to break up with that stupid slut?" Welcome to the family. FML

He was just in shock that you said yes and became his fiancé! Its a big step for couples! Once he gets more used to the idea he'll be ecstatic! :)

just tell him that alcohol gives you the "courage" to say and do things that you wouldn't do when you're sober so you know on some level he meant it also say it's not called liquid courage for nothing.

Rather awkward indeed, but at the same time, you now know that he is not ready for marriage yet. It is better that he took it back, rather than fake it and lie to you as he pretends to be calm about it. I have seen people have panic attacks a few days before marriage, and I personally think it is better for someone to come out and tell their finance that they are not ready yet, rather than pretend to be cool for months, only to blow up at the last minute. Hopefully he will be ready for marriage sometime soon, OP!

I hate when this happens. People propose then afterward they freak out and run away screaming. I cant imagine how you are feeling OP. Im really sorry. I hope he realizes why he isnt ready and works to fix it or you two figure it out.
