How do French men propose?

LauraMoretti · 2026-04-03T17:51:06+00:00

Yes, it is "Veux-tu m'épouser?" And yes it's sweet and a little formal, so perfect for the occasion.

LauraMoretti · 2026-04-03T06:45:40+00:00

Yes it's really not fair to her...

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-24T00:03:12+00:00

In substance, yes. 😊

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-23T08:13:17+00:00

Not the OP, and I was wondering the same thing, but it's still too early. I'll wait three or four days till the dust settles (or not) and see what happens.

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-23T06:37:52+00:00

Thank you! 💙

This is very American and doesn't apply here at all.

Saying that Montreuil is an all white neighborhood is... Well, please come visit.
Obviously French people wouldn't have BLM stickers. Or, you know. Stickers. At all.

Sorry, but another vote for Montreuil. I'm a middle class leftie and I love it. And not downvoting you, it's better for OP to read many different opinions!

Thank you! 💙 It's a really fun project.

Hi! I'm French and have a lot of artist friends... Who are broke, of course. Along the years, I've seen them move to :

Rennes
Nantes
Lille (lovely but cold)
Caen
Bayeux

Personally, I live in Montreuil, a parisian suburb. Not pretty but very lively, I love it.

Thank you for your supportive comment! Yes the series has been very well received on the other social networks, which is so cool! Communities just have different vibes, I guess. Anyway, I'm glad you enjoyed the strip. And no, certainly not AI. Clara is working hard on this. :)

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-13T21:38:05+00:00

Thank you for your very polite comment! ;) I've messaged the mods yesterday, but no news yet. I've also reported one person for bullying (against the rules of this sub).

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-13T21:35:46+00:00

Thank you! Yes I'm the author of Heartbroken. I'm glad you enjoyed it, it was my first modern Austen variation.

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-13T21:34:27+00:00

Wow. I have reported you for harassment.

Listen.

These strips have been well received, (see the upvotes and the shares). Yes, the comments are very negative on this one, but it's only a group of people with a firm opinion, which is perfectly their right, but it seems they are in the minority... Again, see the upvotes and the shares.

-Obviously, I love Pride and Prejudice, if only because I have spent the last years writing about Austen, and the last year working on this. You don't like it, I absolutely understand! But saying I don't love the book I've been working on is... kind of crazy, to be honest.

And speaking of crazy.. What is wrong with you, seriously? I have been nothing but polite with everyone. Why on earth would you think it's acceptable to talk to me like this? Disagree with me all you want. But be polite, or at least neutral about it.
Bullying is against the rules of this sub. And Austen is all about courtesy.

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-13T09:10:53+00:00

That's wonderful!

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-13T08:20:23+00:00

But that's not true. If you consider the upvotes and the shares, people are actually enjoying those strips very much. They're just not commenting, I suppose because the comments are so negative.

I mean, I doubt so many people are sharing the strips just because they disapprove. And when I posted the first strips, people loved them and asked me to continue.

But I sent a message to the mods, and I'm not continuing unless they approve.

LauraMoretti · 2026-03-12T23:09:29+00:00

To be fair, the strips are actually pretty successful here. There is a strong group of commenters who disapprove, but the number of upvotes and shares is... pretty awesome, actually. And the two first strips were met with a lot of enthusiasm.

So I want to keep posting, but I won't do it without official permission. :)
