Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I got reservations for a romantic dinner, and at the end, fireworks would spell out my proposal. The whole thing had taken weeks to plan out and had cost me a lot of money. She proposed to me at a subway station first. FML

Today, I decided to pop the question to my beloved. Perfect lighting, fresh cut roses, a fancy dinner. The restaurant was in on it too. Shame they brought out the wedding-themed congratulations dessert before I actually went down on my knee. FML
Today, my boyfriend of three years proposed to me. He brought me to our favorite restaurant and ordered expensive champagne. It was all very romantic, until he got on one knee and I farted out of surprise. Loudly. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend of nearly 2 years out to dinner so I could propose. When the waiter brought the check, I caused a bit of a scene to get everyone's attention. When I got on my knee and proposed, she said no and asked if I could hurry up and pay, because she was embarrassed. FML
Today, after three years with my dream girl, I decided to pop the question by making her complete a scavenger hunt ending in her finding me, suit and everything, by the park bench where we had our first kiss. She came home tired and, instead of following the clues, decided to watch TV all day. FML
Today, I gathered both mine and my girlfriend's families secretly to a restaurant. I paid the restaurant to play romantic music, and paid for the best table available. As soon as we finished our meal, our families gathered around and I proposed. She laughed and said no way. FML
Today, at a restaurant, I happily watched as my boyfriend of three years got down on his knees and proposed to me. Before I could say yes and hug him, a girl flung herself at him, kissed him and shouted, "Yes!" With us still highly confused, she then ran away. FML
Today, I finally plucked up the courage to propose to my girlfriend of 7 months. I took her out to the park where we had our first kiss, I got down on one knee, and before I could say, "Will you marry me?" a bird shat on my head. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend, whom I'm madly in love with, by having a plane fly over her house spelling "Marry me Abby?" After seeing it, she locked herself in her room and cried for hours, exclaiming that this wasn't how she wanted to be proposed to. I'd invited my entire family. FML

I'm with you #9! Ok, it's a bit of a bummer since you spent so much money and all, but hey, at least you know she wants to marry you! And at the wedding you'll have a great story to tell!

I think this is terrible. He got proposed to at a subway station. But your girl is really forward, women should wait until proposed to

How old fashioned could you be? Woman can purpose it's not illeagal! Some men never purpose because their happy just living together but if you want to get married you should be able to do the purposing or atleast ask the guy if he thinks it would be a good idea to get married!

It is actually called "proposing".

does it matter? [to # 40]
itsnotfair 0
yes it does matter, because the words 'propose' and 'purpose' have two distinctly seperate meanings

Okay,so,the spelling isn't fantastic, but no one needs to be a grammar nazi.It's the internet--no big deal. And anyway,who cares who proposes??You'll be married either way.

Gaaah. "It's the internet, it's no big deal..." People who aren't legasthenic should pay at least a bit of attention on correct grammar or at least correct spelling...even here. I mean, if you aren't able to write a text with correct spelling and grammar when there is this handy tool called "backspace"... And it's just annoying to read. Still, people who lament about every typo are equally annoying...

shouldve purposed sooner...she prollly thought you were taking to long to pop the questions...

PEOPLE. it's PROpose. "purpose" means something different entirely.

I don't see why it means she thought he was taking too long. She could have just thought about it, found out she'd like to marry the guy, and then proposed. Either way, it's confirmation she'd say yes. I'm sure it was a nice evening, and it'll make for a great story later too, and something to bind you - you fit so well together you both proposed on the very same day! Not a FML. More like a my-life-rules.

the whole issue regarding "propose" vs "purpose" could just be a simple matter of the commenter not having english as their first language so they try to spell it phonetically (which is almost a mistake with any english word, though we still teach it to little kids anyways...) and they didn't use the french version of the site because they don't know french. probably not. just playing devil's advocate =)

See, this is where the whole "STFU, it's about love, not the proposal" thing comes in, same as it does to all the chicks who post on here, thinking their bf's proposal was of some second rate nature. Sucks to have wasted all the money and planning and whatnot, but you got what you wanted anyway.

I was thinking the same thing as number 18.
