Today, as I got down on one knee, and was in the middle of saying, "Will you marry me?" my partner answered a text message. Apparently it was more important. FML

Today, my boyfriend got on one knee and started talking about how we met. Knowing what was coming, I started tearing up, absolutely sure he was going to propose. Just as I was about to say yes, he quickly stood up and yelled "HAH, JUST KIDDING". FML

Today, at a restaurant, I happily watched as my boyfriend of three years got down on his knees and proposed to me. Before I could say yes and hug him, a girl flung herself at him, kissed him and shouted, "Yes!" With us still highly confused, she then ran away. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. I said yes. This caused him to panic, excuse himself, then take it back via text message a half hour later, claiming he'd been drunk. We live together. When he comes back home, it's going to be very awkward indeed. FML

Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I wasn't expecting anything too romantic, but I would have liked something more than an email from Facebook, requesting my confirmation that we were engaged. FML

Maybe she was texting "Yes!" to you. Or like #17 said, she was texting her friends about it.

People and their technology compulsions... the sad thing was that she probably thought nothing of it.

Dump her. Either she didn't care or doesn't respect you or is sending a message. I would tell her what you were ABOUT to ask her, then break up with her.

If she texts a lot of always have her phone on her then she just did it on impulse or the fact that she just answers things right away . . . 'cept not in person? Lol I have no idea. That just sucks sweaty monkey balls.
