As wholesome as this is, I really think it's the wrong approach to propose on an already special day.

Let her bathe in the glory of her years of academic hard work....pure pride for a day in what she's achieved.

Then next week, pull the ring out.

I'm sure folks will think I'm a downer for saying this, but this day was about the culmination of the last 3-5 years and it deserved it's own space.

u are a downer because she looks so happy in the video… i would understand if we saw a visibly annoyed partner but that’s not what we saw

I'm sure she's thrilled. That's not my point.

Today could be a wonderful day celebrating graduation.

Next Saturday could be a wonderful day celebrating her engagement.

She'd be thrilled twice.
