Did the right thing to let him know. Poor guy. You will be judged by the crowd now, torches and pitchforks!!!

damn more like fuck his life

Sounds like he knew what you wanted to do and give you a bad name before doing so.

I always did wonder for all those televised proposals that went right, if there's ever been some that went wrong. While not televised, I think this FML just answered my question.

Don't worry about what outsiders think. You did what was best for you. You asked to meet him, and he walked all over you by not letting you tell him why you asked to meet him. Yeah, sucks to be him, but you cant stay with someone you don't love just because they propose to you in public.

Better to have a bitter end than endless bitterness.

fuck his life... But you did the right thing...

Good for you for not being pressured! When I was young and dumb, I said yes to a proposal in front of the family of the guy I wanted to break up with (and was quite manipulative). I did eventually break it completely off. No one should be pressured or manipulated into marriage.

Way to let a guy down. YDI big time. Friendly tip: NEVER TURN DOWN A MARRIAGE PORPOSAL!!!!!!!!!! I don't think you want to know how many guys write FMLs about turned-down marriage proposals. YDI for finally finding "the one" and turning him down.

His plan worked like a charm. Propose to your girlfriend. She says No. Breakup. She. feels terrible. And he is happy and free.
