TL;DR I fucked up by saying I don't have a specific plan for an engagement during a trip soon, which was my only responsibility.
My and my girlfriend know that we want to get married within a year and I am already researching/shopping for a ring. But we had a small fight yesterday during which I accidentally slipped that I haven't planned, or decided to plan, the proposal to be during our trip which is in less than three weeks.
My excuses are pretty weak, I was working a lot the past 4 weeks and just didn't wrap my head around the topic fully. I know she dreams of a romantic proposal during the trip - just haven't connected the dots yet. We are both very practical people and only the proposal needed to be romantic and generally great.
I simply wasn't thinking about the trip just yet, was planning to get around to thinking about all that next week, now that work has subdued a bit.
So I said something like "I wasn't planning to" but meant "I wasn't planning/thinking about it yet" and this is where I fucked up.
She is furious and says I ruined it because she assumes I wouldn't have done it during the trip... So it quickly devolved into a pretty nasty fight, and we almost never fight.
Not sure what I'm going to do about it, I already apologized a hundred times and said I was just busy but she says (and I admit) it's a weak excuse.
So yeah it's a TIFU through and through and I'm at a complete loss. My body and mind are numb with dread, I am paralyzed and confused as hell.
I want to fix it very badly but just don't know what to do. Now she says I missed my opportunity and I can't say anything to appease her.
