If I learned that my serious partner had faked those things, that would be a major red flag for me. I would feel like my partner is childish and wants drama, or something. I don’t like being lied to, unless it’s part of a prank that’s actually funny, and not just annoying.

Take your significant other on a 2 week road trip, following the original alignment of Route 66. So many things can and will go wrong…
…and 12 years later, most of them make amusing anecdotes. Except Iowa. Iowa will never be amusing. But we got married, and remain married. Because even disasters can be weathered together after surviving Iowa.

Yeah I agree with you. Mutually deciding to go on an adventure which you both know will be difficult but potentially very rewarding (It doesn’t have to be somewhere exotic like Nepal. A 4 day road trip with no particular destination in mind could work.) is one thing. “Faking” a minor disaster is in a whole other class. It’s manipulative. That would be a deal breaker for me in a relationship.

A cousin of mine also experienced a power outage on her wedding day. She was in an elevator at the time.
To each their own. Personally, I’d rather they be FAKE disasters where my fiancé has total control of the situation, rather than REAL disasters where injury or death is possible.
No more warm water in the shower?
“I’m cool with that.”
I’m against FAKE disasters, and I’m also against REAL disasters. It’s not an either/or situation.
