What should you not do during a proposal?

In general, it’s best to avoid doing something that might make your partner feel really uncomfortable or embarrassed. Avoid really public proposals unless you’re sure that your partner would be into it and is interested in marrying you, or they may feel pressured or put on the spot. Another big no-no is proposing in a setting where you’d be taking the spotlight away from someone else, like at a friend’s wedding. If you’re proposing with a ring, don’t try to hide it someplace where it might get lost, overlooked, or even swallowed (like in the bottom of a drink or inside a cake)!
