So, I hate to say it, but am I the only person who’s mildly disturbed by these ‘and then he held the door open for me and bought me a Krispy Kreme and little does he know I picked out my wedding dress’ memes. I mean, they’re funny and all. And I know it’s the little things that can make you fall in love with someone. But a $10 cab ride and MAYBE a 12-piece McNuggets seems a little too little to be shopping for rings, drunk or not. I kinda wanna be like don’t forget to pick up your standards when you’re picking out the flowers for your wedding. No issues with the memes. But the people in them sometimes make me a little concerned...

Well they’re already dating, probably have been for a while, it’s not buying nuggets that made her want to get married it’s seeing that he isn’t going to get jealous about her going out without him.
Marriage shouldn't be about how much money one spends, it should be how they make you feel. Dude showed he was thinking about her and was concerned for her. That is so much more important than a price tag.
I'm a little concerned that there are people who base others worth on what they can get out of them.
@ajhedges Now that makes sense. I’m reminded of the meme where the girl said ‘I have Hulu, Netflix and Sling on my phone and have guys paying for all of it’ to which another woman replied something like ‘Women used to literally have men die over them but now they give it up over $10 apps.’ That’s where my mind goes when I see memes like these. @strongsad It wasn’t about how much you can get, it was about what people seemed to be willing to tie the knot over. Marriage is a big decision. A Happy Meal - without getting the context behind giving it - just seemed like way too casual of a trigger to get hitched for my tastes.
