Today, while on a weekend away, my boyfriend and I went for a walk. I now get to tell everyone the story of how my boyfriend got down on one knee into a pile of cow shit while proposing. FML

College Life
Packed lecture halls, a sketchy roommate and frat parties: welcome to college, the real thing.
Today, I took my girlfriend of three years on a romantic picnic to the park, so I could propose to her. The moment was just right, I made my move. I knelt down on one knee and asked her. Her response was "you're kneeling in dog poop." I looked down. She was right. FML

Seriously? Things like that happen... be happy he still wants to marry you after being such a negative person.

I'd love a proposal story like that, it's hilarious! Practise telling it so it sounds super romantic, and then drop the cow shit in at the end. Brilliant.

I don't think she's being negative. With only 140 characters, it's difficult to convey tone or a full story, but I don't see anything that says she's ungrateful or negative, though I've noticed a lot of other commenters seem to think she is. Cow shit does put a damper on romantic moments, but that doesn't mean OP and her fiancé didn't laugh about it afterwards. It's just a funny story—there's really not enough information in it to judge OP's character.

...wait, boyfriend? Doesn't that mean OP said no? That's unfortunate for him, if that's the case. Not just having his marriage proposal turned down, but getting up to his knees in shit just to get turned down. But just like dating is never something owed to another, saying yes to a marriage is never owed.

I think I'd focus more on the proposal. plus he was,the one kneeling in shit so it's more his fml not yours.

Or you could edit that. Boyfriend needs to reconsider his proposal if you're going to be this much of a chore.

You know in some parts of the world they praise cows and worship them. You ungrateful wench! I wasn't asked but the ring I got was pretty so I said yes.
