I must fail at being a woman.

HookaPants

or she fails at paying attention because the guy has said he's not mushy. I think she's wrong and WhoTF REALLY asks how he proposed after the wedding is over?

So the BF was talking to his brother about how he was going to propose in front of me. The BF goes on to say that he is not mushy and he just plans on saying I love you and give me the ring. HOW LAME!!!

I said to him you dont have to be all mushy but it would be nice if you could at least ask me to marry you not just throw a ring at me.

Am i wrong for wanting to hear the question and have the man I love ask me the most important question of my life?

This is going to be a story that I will be re-telling for the rest of my life, is it ok to express to him that I will be re-telling this story and it would be nice if he could make a little effort???

HELP!!

For the rest of her life? Sure, she might be asked to tell the story when she announces the engagement. After that no one cares. Maybe her grandchildren will ask when they're looking through old photo albums 50 years from now.

if she doesn't like it, she can say "no."

She's read too many romance novels.

People still ask me how he proposed, and their faces fall when I explain how I, too, fail at being a woman, and we discussed it like grownups and made a decision. 

I think she needs to realign her priorities, or she'll end up divorcing him because he won't turn into some sort of hyper-romantic Lothario after they're married.

I think you're all missing the point.  He knows she likes mushy stuff, and still doesn't bother doing it, even just this once for a big event.  He's a f*ck-effort dud.
