She said wait a year and then you could ask again. Sounds like that may be coming from her parents.
I was with someone for years that use to play pranks no one really thought they were that funny except him. One time a prank was played on him and he was shocked and didn't think it was very funny. I couldn't stop laughing mainly because it was a prank he use to do. Not so much anymore once it was played on him.
If you two are meant to be then it will work out, if not then you go your own ways.

You realize this now, but I'll say it for the benefit of the studio audience: Pranks and practical jokes are nothing more than attempts to humiliate someone. Show me someone who likes practical jokes and I'll show you someone with a streak of cruelty.
Now that you've reformed your ways, now that you've realized the consequences of your past actions, it's time for you to have a heart-to-heart about what you've learned.
Yes, I'm sorry for ever making her feel insecured and causing damage in the relationship. I hope for the best but if she ends up leaving, there is nothing I can do anymore.
This upset several of you and I got called out from the looks of it. It's ok. My best friends (males) did that too. They were also upset with what I did. I deserved it. Even one of my friends who is against marriage wouldn't do what I did.

I hope for the best and that one day we can look past this. I guess only time will tell. It would be the world to me if she would say yes one day but it's ok if she wants to take her time. I'm ready whenever she is.

First of all I want to say that I regret living my life as a prankster in the past. I used to play pranks on everyone (including my family members) and on her too. Well 2 years ago, out of the many pranks I've played on her was a surprise marriage proposal prank with a fake, cheap ring. I know you'll probably going to say I'm the one of the most horrible person ever.
She really got hurt, we almost broke up and that was the end of my pranking days. I haven't played another prank ever since. I told her that the 2nd time will be for real and have been trying to make it up to her since. Well yesterday it was for real but she didn't believe me. She got upset, said it's over for pranking about it again and didn't let me explain it was real. She got in her car and drove away. I couldn't catch up to her. I can't even call her. She unfriended and blocked me. The only way for me to talk to her is to go to her house.
I'm really sorry for what I did before in the past. Will I win her back? I can show her it's for real this time. Any suggestions?
Your presentation of the proposal is what made it look unserious to her. Considering the fact that you've pranked her with such before, the proceeding words would have given her clues whether the proposal is real or not. And I don't think you used the right words to give her the assurance that you truly wanna be with her.

I'm agreeing on that one. She said all that creativity, effort, a lot more wording, the rose petals on the floor and over the top romantic surprise scene used on the prank should've been done on the real proposal. She said the fake one looked real while the real one looked as lame as if saying ''Look, I just won the lottery and I'm happy'' , too straight forward without any real enthusiasm at all.
This is basically how the real one went like:
As we were talking and walking in the park, I pulled out the ring box and said
''It's been 4 great years. Will you marry me my love''.
Hopefully things work out. If and when she's ready, I'll make it very special and unique.

That's actually what you said? It hasn't been a great 4 years. You've been trying to rebuild trust for two years after a betrayal. You didn't acknowledge that hardship (or your role in it) at all.
This story doesn’t sound real. I don’t know why she’d even stay your girlfriend all this time, since she doesn’t trust you.
Maybe she thought he would mature a little more by now.
OP - several posts mention you may not be ready for marriage and therapy was suggested. It may help you grow and mature to find out why there's been this need for pranks and attention seeking behavior.
