This happened yesterday and I still feel sick about it. My sister Emma (26F) and her boyfriend Jake had been together for 3 years. We all knew a proposal was coming. At our mom’s birthday dinner, Jake stood up and started a heartfelt speech. Emma looked emotional, clearly realizing what was about to happen.

He pulled out the ring, got down on one knee, and in that moment, my dumbass yelled, “FINALLY!” Way louder than I meant to. The entire restaurant went silent. Emma’s face turned bright red. Jake fumbled the ring and dropped it. Total chaos.

Emma said yes, but she was clearly upset. Later she told me I ruined the moment and made it about myself. I was honestly just excited and thought I was being funny, but I see now how selfish and inappropriate it was.

My whole family is mad at me, and Emma won’t return my texts. I’ve been replaying it constantly, wishing I could take it back. I didn’t mean to steal her spotlight, but I did.

TL;DR: I yelled during my sister’s proposal and completely embarrassed her, ruining what was supposed to be one of the happiest moments of her life.
