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?

If she got that upset over it, it would seem to me that she really loves you. In time, with a little effort, you should be able to win her over. Going forward, pranking is ok, but something as serious as that is way out of line, so I'm glad you learned that lesson. Go to her house.

Are you saying you used the exact same set up for the real proposal as you did for the prank?

Dude, there are a lot of ways to get engaged. The pop-proposal is just one, so it was a dumb idea to use that one again. Just tell her you want to marry her and go shop for rings.

Nope it wasn't the same set up. For the prank proposal from 2 years ago, I made an effort to make it believable, romantic and decorated the floor. When I was a prankster, I used to put effort on my pranks but if there was no joke, I put no effort.

On my real proposal I just did it on a normal day while we were walking in the park, normal and casual. I didn't think this would trigger her badly. I really thought she had forgiven me for that.

No do not buy her a ring. Let her pick it out.

It seems to me if she doesn't actually trust you enough to believe in your marriage proposal, the two of you are not actually ready to get married. That fact that the first place you turned was here and not her again suggests, the two of you are just not ready to get married.

There is just no trust in this relationship.
