Today, I finally made the last payment on the beautiful engagement ring I bought and proposed with - two years ago. To my ex-girlfriend, who said no and promptly started sleeping with one of my friends. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I'm living with my now ex-girlfriend of 9 years in the house we bought together. What's worse than that is the fact that 2 weeks before she told me she was unhappy and ended it, I had bought an engagement ring. I didn't get the chance to ask, and had to return the ring. FML
Today, an ex-boyfriend of mine came to the jewelry store I work at to pick out an engagement ring for his girlfriend. The same guy who just a few months earlier ended our 8-year relationship because I wanted marriage and he didn't. FML
Today, my fiancée handed me her engagement ring back and told me she felt like she's pressuring me into marriage, so to make me feel better about it we’re no longer engaged. On top of this, I found out she’s started talking to her ex again. FML
Today, I found out my fiancée has been sleeping with the salesman I bought her engagement ring from. He knew. FML
Today, I got home and my girlfriend was wearing the ring I bought last week. Apparently she found it and thought to herself, "Fuck it, we’re engaged now so I’ll just start wearing it", completely bypassing the actual proposal part of getting engaged. I’m actually really mad at her right now. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went shopping for an engagement ring. We ended up breaking up in the process. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 5 years. She bitched me out for not getting the ring she had been "hinting" me to get, and angrily left. FML
Today, my ex-girlfriend proposed to me, at my wedding. FML
Today, I was out with my boyfriend, when he started browsing wedding rings. He found a ring, proposed to me right there in front of a crowd, and then was promptly denied a payment plan. We left without a ring. FML
Today, my girlfriend of 3 years confessed that at first, she'd only dated me to get her friend jealous, and that even now, she "only kind of liked" me. I bought a ring only a few days ago, and was planning on proposing to her. FML

Just be glad she said no, this way, you won't find out about her later in a more hurtful way. This experience might even make you a better person; ie looking for better qualities.

Always evolving as a person, as long as you learn from past actions and circumstances, I like that mentality. :) Very nice. :)

I agree that gardening tool doesn't deserve a god damn thing. Saw her sleeping with the rake last night. :-/

That is unfortunate but, you deserve it for buying a ring you had to take two years to pay off! I wouldn't have married my husband if he was that stupid with money either.

My engagement ring was $60. I love it dearly! It's the feeling behind the moment of proposal that makes it priceless. You don't need a ring that will take 2 years to pay off to know that you're loved.

Why could you have just returned it? And the standard rule has always been that it should cost 2 months of wages, not 2 years!

Atleast now you can give it to someone who actually deserves it.

She didn't reject the ring, she rejected the person.
