My Boyfriend Proposed to Me Only 3 Months after We Met — I Was over the Moon until I Found Out Why

Share this:

Ava and Ethan’s whirlwind romance seemed like a fairytale come true. They had enchanting dates and heart-to-heart talks that made their connection feel magical. Just three months after their first meeting, Ethan proposed, and Ava was overjoyed. But as their wedding day approached, an unexpected twist threatened to ruin their perfect story.

It all started on a sunny spring day at a cozy coffee shop that also had a small bookstore. Ava was browsing the shelves when she reached for the same book as Ethan—Pride and Prejudice. Their hands brushed, and she looked up into his warm brown eyes. His dimpled smile made her heart flutter.

“I’m sorry,” Ethan said with a charming grin. “Looks like we have similar taste in books.”

Ava, feeling a bit flustered, offered him the book, but Ethan suggested they share it over coffee. She couldn’t resist, so they spent the afternoon on a comfy sofa, talking about their favorite reads. By the time Ethan asked for her number, Ava was already falling for him.

Their romance blossomed quickly. They enjoyed magical dinners under the stars, spontaneous weekend getaways, and deep, late-night conversations. Ava felt like she was living in a romance movie and wondered if it was all too perfect.

Three months after their first meeting, Ethan proposed in the same coffee shop where they met. As the sun set, painting the sky in pink and orange, he got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. Overwhelmed with emotion, Ava tearfully accepted, thinking she had found her soulmate.

They planned a small, intimate wedding by a lake just outside of town, with only close friends and family. The pre-wedding festivities were full of joy and laughter—until a casual conversation with Ethan’s sister, Olivia, shattered Ava’s world.

While walking to the bathroom during the pre-wedding party, Olivia made a comment that left Ava stunned. “I still can’t believe you two managed to pull off this fake marriage thing,” Olivia said cheerfully. “I mean, I know it was the only way for Ethan to get the inheritance, but you two deserve an Oscar for this performance.”

Ava’s heart dropped. “What do you mean, fake marriage?” she asked, her voice trembling.

Olivia’s face went pale as she realized her mistake. “Wait, you didn’t know? I thought you were in on it,” she stammered, trying to backtrack.

Ava pressed her for the truth, and Olivia reluctantly explained that their grandfather’s will had a stipulation—Ethan would only receive his inheritance if he got married within six months. Everyone assumed Ava was part of a convenient arrangement.

Stunned and heartbroken, Ava waited until Ethan was asleep that night. With trembling hands, she checked his phone and found messages that confirmed her worst fears. Ethan had been mocking her with his friends, calling their marriage a means to secure his inheritance. “Just a few more months, and the money is mine,” one text read. “Can’t believe she fell for it.”

The realization that her entire relationship with Ethan had been a lie crushed Ava. But instead of giving in to despair, she felt a surge of determination. She returned the phone to its place, climbed back into bed, and began planning her next move.

On the wedding day, as Ava walked down the aisle, she felt the weight of betrayal but also a newfound strength. When it was time to say her vows, she took a deep breath and, with steady resolve, revealed the truth.

“Ethan,” she began, her voice trembling with emotion, “when we first met, I thought I had found the love of my life. But today, I’m not here to marry you. I’m here to tell the truth. This wedding was never about love for you—it was about money. You saw me as a tool to get your inheritance, and I refuse to be used.”

Gasps filled the room as Ethan’s smile faded into panic. Ava, unshaken, turned away from the altar and walked away from the deception that had ensnared her.

In the days that followed, Ethan tried to reach out, but Ava ignored his attempts. Supported by her friends and family, she began to heal and rebuild her life. She revisited the coffee shop where it all began, not to dwell on the past, but to find the joy she once had there.

With time, Ava grew stronger and embraced the journey of healing and self-discovery. She knew she would one day find true love—someone who valued her for who she really was. Until then, she found comfort in her own worth and strength.

As Ava reflected on her experiences, she understood that life is full of surprises. What matters is how we handle them. She chose to stand up for herself, walk away from deceit, and in doing so, discovered a deeper love—self-love.
