Usually a man proposing to a woman should be a voluntary action that the person on question wants to take, but sometimes that choice is taken from you.
This was the case of an unidentified bachelor who confessed on Reddit that he proposed to his girlfriend while under the influence of drugs.
According to the man, to deal with his sleep troubles, he decided to take the sleeping drug, Ambien.
However, instead of taking the recommended 10mg, he took four times the amount (40mg)

Unfortunately, this meant that he was completely unaware of his actions for a period of time. This is not uncommon with people who use Ambien, with many realising they did stuff they had no idea, or intention to indulge in. From building a cabinet to Cleaning the kitchen, all sorts of interesting misadventures have occurred due to the use of Ambien.
“I had an engagement ring in my drawer… woke up and she was wearing the ring on her finger and had explained what had happened,” the man wrote. “[I] was just shook because [I couldn’t] remember s–t.”
The man was honourable though, as he went all the way with the idea even changing his Facebook relationship status.
“I had not planned on being engaged with my girlfriend for another year and a half and probably [would’ve] gotten her a better ring but Ambien sped up the process ten folds,” he said.
