A dramatic and heartbreaking scene has sparked massive reactions online after a young man smashed his girlfriend’s phone for rejecting his marriage proposal in public.
The incident, captured in a viral video circulating on X (formerly Twitter), reportedly occurred inside a supermarket and was witnessed by several shocked onlookers.
In the video, the young man is seen going down on one knee to propose to his girlfriend. However, instead of excitement or acceptance, the lady appeared visibly unimpressed and asked him to stand up. The situation quickly escalated when she allegedly insulted him, leaving the man embarrassed and visibly upset.
Moments later, the proposal took a violent turn as the man stood up and smashed the lady’s phone, further intensifying the scene. Another man nearby was seen confronting him as bystanders watched in disbelief.
The incident has since ignited heated debates online, with many users sharing mixed opinions about public proposals, rejection, and emotional maturity.
Reactions Online
Reacting to the video, Emeka Ueh wrote:
“See as the girl short, still dey bleach ontop, ugly and shapeless… men una dey mumu ooo.”
AB Brekt commented:
“As a man, you are supposed to know a girl who will marry you. At least una go don dey talk about marriage and life together. There are plans and things both of you must have done together that only someone ready to settle will do.”
Zoey took a more balanced stance, saying:
“She said no, that’s not the end of the world. Smashing a phone just shows lack of maturity.”
Meanwhile, TY Autos criticised both parties, stating:
“This is purely embarrassing. Stop proposing to people in public. Ladies, just collect it at the time to avoid embarrassment, then return the ring privately and politely. Stop all this shenanigans.”
The viral clip has continued to fuel discussions around public proposals, consent, emotional control, and how rejection should be handled with dignity.
