Oregon man gets engaged to box of wine
Updated | By The Scenic Drive with Rian
Michael James Schneider has taken things to the next level with his loyal "boyfriend", Franz.
In February 2018, after a period of wallowing over a failed relationship, Michael James Schneider decided it was time to move on. He went on to build another, more fulfilling relationship - with box wine.

Michael took the boxes of wine that he had finished while he cried over his past boyfriend and literally built himself a new partner. Michael named his new beau Franz, after one of his favourite box wines: "Franz is great. He’s better than a regular boyfriend because he’s the strong, silent type, but also sweet and caring at the same time." And now, Franz and Michael are engaged.
The elaborate proposal was broadcast on Michael's Twitter page. Michael, a writer and artist who clearly has a flair for long-running practical jokes, wrote: "I said yes! And the ring is beautiful, too."

The union will surely be a happy one: Franz loves to pour out his heart and Michael loves to think of the glass as half full.
