By Anonymous - This FML is from back in 2010 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I took my girlfriend of five and a half years to family dinner at a restaurant. After we all had finished dessert, I got down on one knee, pulled out my great grandmother's ring and proposed. The entire restaurant was dead silent. She looked around and then slowly walked out. FML

Wow I'm so sorry. Have you gotten an explanation? You'd think after 5 1/2 years she'd shout YES.

Yeah... I say that gets close to an FYL. But YDI. Never ask such a question unless you are sure of the answer. Did she walk out with the ring? Did you have to pay the bill too?

Quick, everybody, take pictures - it's a mature, intelligent comment on FML!

ydi for proposing in front of your/her entire family, it should've been private, and romantic

WOW! Some people are pigs. That girl is. She was a waste of feelings & time!

I do feel bad for the OP, but I feel bad for her too. For all of those people who are saying that she's a pig, you might want to consider the possibility that perhaps she is still young and wants to focus on other things like her career before getting married. Some people do prefer to date each other for a long time before there are rings involved. Yes, they have been dating for 5 1/2 years, but maybe they were high school sweethearts and now are only in their early 20s, in which case, perhaps the subject of marriage may be something they have not discussed a lot.

Your stupid did you really jus type P'STD' what the hell is that? what is that a new 'S'exually 'T'ransmitted 'D'isease? I hope what u were trying to say was PTSD. That would make more sense. I hate it when people use acronyms and get them mixed up.....so stupid.

PTSD stands for post traumatic stress disorder, you dumb ****. How does "triggering repressed memories" have to do with sexually transmitted diseases? Because it's soo unlikely that the poster made a typo. God you're stupid.

You know what annoys me, foxxxy? I get really annoyed when people use "your" instead of "you're," particularly when they call someone stupid in the same breath. It's much harder to do than switching two letters... so stupid.

I hate it when people flip the **** out over obvious typos and call people names. Of course we all have our pet peeves. Calm down a bit, k?
