The 24 hour engagement.

You've seen the movie War Games right? Sometimes the only way to win is not to play the game. I think this is one of those cases. Back away now and save yourself.

Also, try to learn something from this experience. If you didn't see this coming, you didn't know the girl well enough to propose to anyway.

"Till death do us part" is a long time. You want to make sure you're compatible in addition to being in love.

Alternatively, he did see it coming and rushed the proposal to 'lock her in'. That's what it sounds like to me, anyway.

If so, bad idea. Bad, bad, bad.

If that is the case, at least it didn't work. If it had, they would both be miserable in a matter of months.

Not necessarily another man, could be another woman... or group of women, girlfriends saying, "You can do better than him".

It's possible, but I imagine if that were the case, she would not still be stringing him along.
