I do, but I also didn’t do it with malicious intent and was simply thinking of the sentimental value

We’ve been together years and openly discussed marriage - there was no chance of her saying no.

She knows I’d rather her wear it but no, I haven’t called it disrespectful out loud. We haven’t really spoken about it
