The amount of messed-up that would be in this “prank” would be so…messed up.
The girl seems like she was excited and happy over the proposal, which would later turn out to be disappointment, anger, and sadness when she finds out it was fake.
She would be embarrassed that he doesn’t want to marry her but she really wanted to. There’s nothing wrong with one partner being ready and the other not, but having that displayed as a mockery is embarrassing.
She didn’t recognize that it was his twin brother, which is troubling. Even if she was unaware that he had a twin, I would expect her to pick up on some flags that it wasn’t her partner: 1) different mannerisms, 2) very limited knowledge of shared experiences and her particular tastes, 3) no jointly understood scripts for showing affection, and more.
When she is legitimately proposed to, she will have at least some considerable doubt that it’s real and prevent her from engaging safely and freely, thus damaging the real proposal.
She will now have to decide if she’s okay with marrying into a family that pulls “pranks” like that. Also, considering that her partner’s brother was fine with doing that, she may wonder if she is missing some serious flags with her partner.
Note: Please excuse me if I’m being too judgemental, picky, or similar. I found my cat of 3 years dead today, so I’m definitely more vulnerable and emotional.
Yeah, it’s terrible. The worst part though is that I’m sad he lost his life. It’s not that I wont have him, but that he can’t live anymore. He deserved so much better than that.
Sorry for your loss too. To me, the thing with losing animals is that they’re so sincere. You know exactly what they like doing and how much they care about you, so when it’s gone, it’s clear what’s missing from the world.
Honestly I agree 100%. I feel like there are some things that shouldn’t be joked about, and to actually go through with a pretend proposal like that is fucked up beyond words.

I’m very sorry for your loss, cats can be such good friends.
Thank you. He was such a sweet being. The world feels less loving without him 😢
It is a funny internet joke, it is a horrible, horrible IRL joke on par with those “joke” fake winning scratch lottery tickets.
I am incredibly sorry for your loss.
Thank you. It’s been a rough time, but we’re getting through it slowly.

This is the best breakdown of a meme I’ve seen yet.
Happy to contribute! lol

Sorry about your cat. :(
Yeah, definitely! Proposals are expected to be a once in a lifetime event, so I think it’s best to keep it sacred.
And thank you :)
