You have to do that first: A video of a marriage proposal on Alexanderplatz published at the weekend is becoming increasingly popular. For example, more than 31,000 people liked it on Instagram on the dasistberlinbitch account, and almost 1,500 comments were collected under the post. The video, which is set to heartbreak music, has now been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on TikTok.
As a reminder: the proposal carried out on her knees was rejected by the woman she loved. Filmed by hundreds of passers-by, cheered on by tourists and locals, the young woman fled despite the red carpet that had been rolled out especially for her, despite draped candlesticks and a huge heart made of red roses.

The video even collected more hearts at dasistberlinbitch as the clip in which US rapper Kanye West and his scantily clad partner Bianca Censori Kreuzberger munch on fast food from Mustafa’s vegetable kebab.
In the comments, people move between pity for the rejected man and understanding for the woman who turns around. “It’s your own fault,” says one user. “That’s why you talk about stuff like that before you propose. And then do it in public so that she is under pressure not to embarrass him.”
It has now emerged that the man in the video is the TikToker Zaher, who is followed by more than 500,000 people on the portal. On Monday, Zaher posted a short black and white clip of himself on TikTok in which he looked sadly into the camera. At the top of the picture there is a broken heart and an empty battery.
A number of users want to know from him in the comments whether the video is fake. Some call him an extremely good actor. The fact that the woman in the video is also active on TikTok speaks in favor of a fake. She also has tens of thousands of followers under the name the.queen808.
What is certain is that both parties involved have not resolved the matter yet. The woman named Maya writes on TikTok that she has heard a lot of things about herself “that didn’t even happen and how people talk without hearing from my side.” She announced a statement in a live video. Meanwhile, in the comment columns of both accounts there is a lot of soap opera-like fabulation: Did he cheat on her? Was the application an attempt at redress?
Zaher went live on TikTok with a statement on Sunday. In it he said: “I proposed to her and all of a sudden she said ‘no.’ There is no reason, I can’t give a reason here. I tried to call her but she doesn’t answer. I prepared everything as a surprise for her, but unfortunately it didn’t work out. That doesn’t mean she has to say ‘yes’. But just running away without telling myself, ‘I can’t do this,’ that’s not possible.”
Whatever the outcome, the attention is there, and perhaps that is the goal of the social experiment we are witnessing. Assuming that the application was meant seriously in this form, it remains advisable that you should neither be in a relationship crisis nor bother a person who doesn’t like being in the spotlight when making high-profile applications. A marriage proposal at the football stadium or at the Helene Fischer concert needs to be carefully considered.
Just like the location: There is hardly a more unromantic place than the quirky Alexanderplatz. Maybe choose Rüdesheimer Platz next time? Or the Gendarmenmarkt when the construction site is gone? Then maybe saying yes will work.
