Today, I decided I would tell my mom I'm not going to marry my fiancé because it just didn't feel right, only to walk into my own surprise engagement party. FML

Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Same thing different taste
Today, I discovered my fiancé has been telling everyone else we are just friends, yet last night he wanted me to go with him to pick up my engagement ring. I'm supposing the wedding will be a surprise to everyone. FML
Bad timing
Today, my boyfriend invited me over to his house. I was planning on breaking up with him while at his house. Turns out, it was a proposal party. I'm now engaged because it would've been rude to say no in front of his family that had flown in. FML
Apron strings
Today, my fiancé told me he wants to buy an engagement ring for his mother, so that she doesn't feel left out. FML
Today, my fiancé, his mother, my father and I went out to celebrate my birthday and our recent engagement. After dinner, my father and future mother-in-law revealed to us that they had secretly been dating and were talking about also getting married. Anybody want cake? FML
Who TF Did I (almost) Marry?
Today, I was supposed to get married. I called it off only 20 minutes before the ceremony was supposed to begin because I saw my fiance punch his own mother in the face. FML
WTF?
Today, I went to my fiancé's mother's funeral. His step-sister proudly announced that she's pregnant with his baby and they are engaged. FML
Really? In 2022?
Today, I was busy going over wedding plans with my fiancé, when my mother called. Apparently, she wants me to "drop the joke" about this "fake engagement", because she was under the impression I was only dating a white guy to piss her and dad off, and was now getting carried away with it. FML
Today, my fiancé won't tell people we're engaged because his mother doesn't approve, and he doesn't want to upset her. FML
Today, my mother excitedly jumped up and down, announcing that one of her sweet younger coworkers got engaged. I wished she'd had the same reaction to my engagement when I announced it to her a few days earlier. FML
Today, I got engaged to the most wonderful man in the world. I excitedly called my mom to tell her the great news, thinking she'd be excited too. Her only response? "Oh." FML

Sounds like a perfect time to tell them you're calling the thing off.

dude maybe it felt right then.. but once the reality set in she didnt want to do it anymore. goddamn it. its fine for her to change her mind this far in the game. at least they are not married yet. it totally sucks, but just because there was a party doesn't mean that you cant still call it off.

"fiance" implies male while "fiancee" implies female. Since the OP wrote "fiance" it's reasonable to assume the OP is female. Just sayin'

It says the OP is a man, so the only reasonable thing to assume is that he is a man. Many people don't know the difference between "fiancé" and "fiancée", so that's really no indication. Not to mention that a man can indeed marry another man.

At least you didn't get to tell your mom. Otherwise, it would've been even more awkward.

You can still always call it off if that's really truly what you want,if you're honestly not happy, but only if you have a good reason to. If you're just looking to see if there's "something better out there" trust me, there's a good chance there won't be, and then don't expect you can just run back to your ex and say,okay I changed my mind again I wanna get married now..not gonna happen

wait for the wedding and when the priest or what ever say "If anyone has any quarles with this union speak now or forever hold your peace" any then some guy will stand up and he will speak then you will run off with him and marry him divorce him a year later while youre pregnant and then he will refuse to pay child support cause he will say that you cheated on him and the kid is asian.

#1 said it best - good opportunity to tell everyone at once and get it all over with. Did you? Or did you cop out, say nothing and enjoy the party, and now have a bunch of gifts to return and awkward explanations to make?
