Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She asked if the ring was a temporary thing until I got a better one, saw my dumbfounded face, then played it off as a joke and said yes. I later found out she'd posted on Facebook bitching about the ring, but with the privacy setting set to hide it from me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend, only for her to slap me, throwing the "fake ring" away and storming off, convinced it was a cruel joke. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I were making fun of a photo album on Facebook containing pictures of two friends who just got engaged. I jokingly asked her to marry me. She said yes. We have been dating for two months. She's not in on the joke. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She said yes, but the ring turned out to be quite tight on her finger. She then chewed me out, saying that I can't do anything right, then changed her answer to no. 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 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
Today, my girlfriend turned down my marriage proposal because the ring I gave her was bigger than the one her sister got at her proposal. Apparently she wouldn't be able to brag to her sister without "looking like a bitch for having a bigger ring". FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend with a ring from Kay Jewelers. She saw the box, started giggling, whispered, "'Kay", and then started laughing so hard at her joke she had to excuse herself. 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 girlfriend found the engagement ring I bought and assumed it was a late birthday present. She’s now wearing it on her right hand like a signet ring and she somehow hasn’t figured out it’s a diamond and not a Swarovski. I'm now waiting for her to figure it out before I pop the question.

I'm sorry people but, I know it wasn't right for her to bitch about it, but come on. At least she had the decency to not say it to his face. She wanted to spare his feelings a bit

I think talking to him about it like an adult instead of gossiping behind his back is the better choice.

I think her reaction is appalling. Most men try to put thought and consideration into the ring. Sure we might miss details like she doesn't wear silver if we were never told but hey, we proposed! My fiancé doesn't wear gold, prefers symmetrical but loved the amethyst heart because I made an effort and picked what I thought she would like. Give a guy a break.

Shoulda put it in her drink. If she choked on it, you'll know the size of the ring wasn't the problem.

I'm not justifying the girlfriend's actions, but it seems to me that if the OP knows the girl so well that he wants to marry her, then he probably should have already noticed if she is very materialistic. Her taste in clothing, restaurants, accessories, etc. probably all show her materialism (or lack thereof). On another note, there seem to be a few women commenting here who took back/exchanged their engagement rings and are now married. Even if you think that's materialistic or wrong, heck, those are the women who are getting married, so men must like that type of woman, no?

#179: There's a big difference between "like" and "put up with." Some men will settle with just about any woman if it means they get approval from their families or gain some sort of social status that they can flaunt. That being said, they may just be in love with the idea of getting married rather than the woman.
