Default The Prank Any Girl Would Love

heres my story...

let me start of by letting u guys know that i love pranks but am known for taking them too far.

It was a couple of days before valentines day and my girlfriend of many years was bugging me to put some actual thought into my gift as i usually do the standard romantic dinner/roses/chocolate thing. I argued that what i get her on one particular day of the year shouldn't define my love for her and ended up getting in a big argument on the situation. after a while she started getting upset and i told her not to worry... i would take care of it.

the next day i found a nice medium sized box and filled it with shredded paper. i wrapped it up in heart covered wrapping paper.

anyways valentines day came around and i had cooked a romantic dinner (salmon fillet topped with a sauce containing artichoke hearts and some wine. after dinner we were in the bedroom and she gave me my present (an xbox 360 and then some other mushy stuff which would just bore u guys) then after seeing her anxiousness i decided i would give her her gift. nervously hoping that this wasn't going to be something mean, she began opening the box. after seeing the shredded paper i could see her becoming very upset. she looked at me and grinning i told her to look deeper. losing faith she continued emptying the paper from the box and started tearing. but it was not because she was upset.. at the bottom of the box i had placed a ring and wrote the words "i love you more than anything. marry me."

well she said yes and i will always look back at that day... for the xb360 of course...

Getting yourself married isn't a payoff in a prank. Your lady bought a man for a Xbox 360. You now share 50/50 and she'll inherit your estate when you hit the dirt before her.

But I'll give you props for proposing, that takes guts.
