If he liked it, then he shoulda put a ring on it -- and for failing to do so, this newly single lady gave her beau the old heave-ho.
But side-eyeing social media skeptics say her ex "dodged a bullet" by not popping the big question.
"On our first date, I told him he had two years to purpose," began Bela Marie, a self-worth influencer, in the closed-captions of a trending tell-all with over 10 million TikTok views. "On our two-year anniversary, I broke up with him."
He missed her deadline. Now the relationship has flatlined.
However, rather than applauding the no-nonsense siren for sticking to her guns, cyber critics are labeling Marie "ridiculous," "wild" and a walking "red flag," arguing that a two-year romance is too short to make a lifetime commitment.
And her haters aren't totally wrong.
Only a mere 30% of couples date for two years or less before getting engaged, per a recent survey of 8,000 fiancés, via The Knot.
A whopping 53% of lovebirds agree to get hitched after two to five years together, according to the wedding experts, while a slim 17% wait six years or more.
"THANK GOD I did not marry that man," she captioned her viral vid, in part.
"On our two-year anniversary, after he flew me out to Catalina, surprised me with a suite and a beautiful boat around the island to celebrate 'our love,' and planned a beautiful long weekend trip -- he did not propose," continued the brunette. "So l broke up with him and ended our relationship."
"There were so many reasons I should have left prior, but I decided to stay -- and this was the tipping point," Marie ranted. "I'm blessed every day that this man is no longer in my life, and I'm proud of myself for sticking by my gut and what I told him on our first date."
With her virtual megaphone, she went on to encourage women not to "waste time...on the WRONG PERSON."
"After two years of being together, he was still uncertain about marrying me," wrote Marie, "then I wasn't going to wait around to change his mind, beg for him to help me achieve my goals, or work harder out of this idea that I needed to 'prove my worth.'"
"He didn't make a move. So I did -- I left," she barked. "Consistency without commitment is just convenience."
"And I'm around for a man that commits. Not a boy that wants to waste my time."
Gals in agreement with Marie's steadfastness saluted her with support.
"Don't move your boundaries for anyone, ever," cheered a commenter, punctuating her approval of Marie's move with the clapping emoji.
"Planning a beautiful trip like that for your anniversary and not proposing is cruel," another noted.
"I stayed... for 10 years & he still was unsure," confessed a separate woman. "We deserve better."
"If someone doesn't know after 2 YEARS, run," an equally caring ally advised. "So proud of you."
"I love this generation of woman leaving at the drop of a hat and not falling for sunken cost fallacy," chimed another. "It's amazing!."
