Romantic lighting, a beautiful woman in a black dress and a ring: what was supposed to result in a marriage proposal with a happy ending went wrong in Rome.
The evening started quite harmoniously. A young Italian named Valerio danced with his lover in the middle of Rome, as a Tiktok video shows. The couple is accompanied by the atmospheric serenade of a local tenor. Suddenly Valerio gets down on his knees and takes a ring out of his pocket. A crowd of people who have gathered clap enthusiastically.
However, the perplexed woman reacts very differently than expected. She begs Valerio to get up. He remains on his knees for a while, looking around in shame – until he finally gets up and abandons his plan.
As the Italian newspaper “La Stampa” reported, the woman asked her friend in Italian: “Is that why we came to Rome?” She was unwilling to accept the request. The couple now appears to be divorced.
The pathetic Valerio wrote under the video: “It’s good that Cartier has a 30 day return period,” referring to his expensive ring purchase from the luxury jewelry manufacturer. However, empathy for the distressed new single is limited on social networks. “This is blackmail,” someone writes. “It’s not fair to put so much pressure on them publicly to say yes.”
More than 13 million people have already watched the Tiktok video, which was uploaded on Christmas Eve. Many of them wonder if the request was real. “It looks like this,” one user wrote. “It’s amazing that people believe that,” another commented.
Users are right to question authenticity: only at the beginning of this year did a wave of fake marriage proposals appear on Tiktok.
A day after the shame, the Italian posted a second video with the caption: “Do you think life is difficult? Try getting dumped on Christmas Eve after flying across the country and being rejected in front of 1.4 million people.”
However, it doesn’t look like he will stay single for long as there are several women in the comments flattering him. “You are so sweet,” one wrote. “Where can I find someone like you?” asks another. (An)
