Hopefully your hypothetical pilot boyfriend would understand that about you before proposing and not do such a thing.
Presumably in the OP, he had a sense of what would be exciting for her.
That was kinda my point. If you rely on the fact that your boyfriend or girlfriend understands you well enough that they wouldn't do a proposal that makes you feel uncomfortable, then them doing something like that might be a deal breaker or at least not an immediate yes. Because it would make you rethink whether they really understand you. But we're probably getting lost in hypotheticals here. As long as everyone involved in the OP was happy, I'm happy for them.
