Girlfriend Wants to Travel to Cambodia and Propose to Her Boyfriend at Preah Vihear (Reddit)

"Here's the deal. My boyfriend and I are hoping to travel to Cambodia later this year. It's been his dream for so long to go to Angkor Wat. He feels a deep spiritual connection to the history of a place he's never even been before; he talks about it with such revere, I just know it means a lot to him. And we plan to visit on his birthday.

About us: We're together 6.5 years, living together for almost 5. We've been through all the usual couple stuff together: Family death, family illness, travelling, unemployment, sickness, bad employment, struggles through university, and when one of us has needed support the other has always been there, no questions asked.

So I want to grow old with him. I want to propose. I want it to be meaningful. I want it to be in Cambodia. But I don't want to be grand, or OTT, or dare I say it - culturally offensive. I know people have proposed in AW before - is it any different for a woman there? Am I overthinking!

I also would like to visit Preah Vihear - but as this place is rooted in such territorial history, and I understand guards are on duty? Is it wise to attempt such a grand gesture here?"

Think she's for real? Her boyfriend is spiritually connected to Angkor Wat yet he's never been?

And she's going to propose to HIM?

I know it's 2016, but if he wanted to marry here, she'd know. I'd be embarrassed for life if every time someone asked us how did I propose I'd have to say, "actually, she proposed to me..."

Maybe he's Khmerican or something. That's the only reason I can think he feels connected to the place without ever visiting.

I know women are allowed to propose on a leap year, but isn't it confined to just the 29th of February? (One chance every 4 years).

Yeah, always always always stick to the story you are defo visiting Cambodia to go to Angkor Wat.
"Nope, don't know anything about this 104,136 talk you speak. Pontoon Wat ?"

I really don't mean to derail this thread but that is Isla Fisher in the Stage Five Clinger clip.

She should stick to Angkor Wat so there's less explaining where she got engaged to idiots back home. Though there is a certain romance to the smell of ganja being smoked by the border guards at Preah Vihear until they start (as I witnessed) trying to juggle their guns... and then dropping them all over the place. 50-50 if they know where the safety is to have put it on in the first place.
