Boyfriend Confronts His Girlfriend After Finding Out She Wasn't Telling The Truth About Where She Was But The Whole Situation Ended Up Being Way Too Sweet
One of the best plot twists on the relationship advice subreddit.
It feels good to be surprised by the people you love. These surprises can range from simple gestures like giving gifts on a random day to special occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, and those once-in-a-lifetime events that you want to be special and memorable.
Anyone can create surprises for their parents, siblings, friends, and especially for their partners. However, there are instances when these surprises might not end well due to poor preparation.
To make a surprise successful, you must plan it well, and you might want to enlist some family members or close friends to help you execute it. Having people assist you will ensure that everything goes as planned since you can assign different roles to them instead of doing everything on your own.
When all else fails, you can also consider hiring a professional to help you pull off the surprise, as they know how surprises work. They can also make things easier for you if you don't have much time to organize everything yourself.
If you're planning to surprise your spouse with a proposal, you should also consider hiring a professional photographer. This way, you can save time and energy, and have peace of mind knowing that your memories will be captured in high-quality images.
With all this in mind, what could possibly go wrong? A Redditor named throwra_wheredshego expressed his concern when he discovered that his girlfriend was lying to him while he was preparing a surprise proposal for her.
OP decided to propose to his girlfriend but found it difficult to choose the perfect ring for her.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshegoKnowing his preferences in jewelry, he consulted their mutual friends.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshegoSince they knew each other's friends, it became natural to ask them for help.

To help him pick out a ring, he asked his girlfriend's best friend.

Since she's the closest to his girlfriend, OP invited Justine over to help him choose a ring.

However, they did not find what they were looking for in the catalogs.

To know how much time they still had, OP texted his girlfriend to ask when she'd be coming home.

But his girlfriend said it would be a few hours because she was going to meet Justine to go shopping.

Both of them were confused because they knew she was lying.

After that, OP tried to act like nothing happened.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
Considering they had zero trust issues, this lie was completely bothering him.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
OP asked the community for help, wondering if he should confront her or just forget about it, which obviously he couldn't.

OP's update.

He thought of possible excuses to explain why he was with Justine.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
But none seemed to make sense.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
So, he had no other choice but to tell her the truth.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
He admitted that he was about to propose and had asked Justine to help him with the ring.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
She finally confessed where she had been after grinning and prodding him about the proposal.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
The assumptions were basically wrong.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
On the other hand, OP revealed he grew up with snakes and was basically a snake person.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
But he didn't get one because he thought his girlfriend might be uncomfortable living with it.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
So, he was really surprised when his girlfriend showed him a picture of her holding a snake.
Reddit/throwra_wheredshego
The time she went out and lied, she was planning to surprise OP with a snake.

OP wasn't expecting how things turned out, but he was happy for sure.

Communication is key.

All is well.

Their story proves just how much honesty and good communication can save a relationship instead of jumping to conclusions and lying. Even though their surprises for each other didn't turn out the way they wanted, they didn't fail because both of them were happy in the end.
Everyone was glad and surprised by the unexpected turn of events. But there's no better outcome than being engaged and welcoming a pet snake.
