Today, I went on my fifth date with my new girlfriend. Apparently, she was in such a rush while leaving work that she forgot to take off her wedding ring. 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 of 5 years. She bitched me out for not getting the ring she had been "hinting" me to get, and angrily left. 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, I went to a jeweler's to buy a ring to propose to my girlfriend. When I was at the restaurant, in mid-proposal, with people watching, I realized I had left the ring in the store. FML
Today, I was shopping for rings with my fiancée. We spent over two hours selecting the perfect ring and diamond to match. When filling out the paperwork I discovered I left my wallet at home. She had to pay the 20% down payment for the ring. FML
Today, in preparation for proposing to my girlfriend, I borrowed one of her rings so I could discreetly get her ring size. Not only have I now lost the ring, which turns out to be a keepsake from her dead grandmother, I still don't know her ring size. FML
Today, I got home early from work at 2am to find my girlfriend of 5 years missing. Upon further inspection, I caught the "other man" dropping her off out front. So much for the engagement ring I bought for her. FML
Today, at work, my vindictive, cheating ex made me clean and inspect her new wedding ring. FML
Today, my girlfriend lost one of her rings. I found this out as I overheard her gushing to her friend about how I must have borrowed it to find out what her ring size is. I have zero interest whatsoever in the sick and utterly immoral institution of marriage. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend while we were on my couch having a romantic moment. She seemed incredibly excited when she saw the ring and put it on. The way she bolted out the door tells me I'm not going to see her again. FML
Today, I ran into my girlfriend by chance while out shopping. She looked different than usual. Maybe it was the wedding ring she was wearing, or how she had her arm around another gentleman, gee, I don't know. That's two years of my life wasted. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Better you found out now than later. Sorry this happened to you.

Just out of curiosity, are you sure it was a wedding band? I have a faux diamond ring and it fits better on my left hand than my right. Note to females, don't wear giant faux rings on your finger. Handsome men won't give you the time of say!

And mosquitos.

True, 55. My theory is that God made mosquitos to punish mankind. For what, I don't know, but our species must have done something really shitty to deserve such parasites.

Well dang...I'm sorry OP but like it was said earlier, better you found out now rather than later when you're more emotionally invested, you'll find plenty more women :) Good luck OP!

Are you completely sure it was a wedding ring? I wrote I diamond ring on my ring finger for years, starting when I was fifteen. It was the first expensive thing I'd ever bought myself, and I only like wearing rings on my ring finger.

Total Bummer!!

Never thought to ask if she was married BEFORE dating???
strawberrywine22 30
That's not something people normally think to ask..."hey, I'd really like to take you to dinner but first, are you by chance married?" I mean really. Do you ask every single person you date whether they're married?

What are you talking about, 25? 23 is clearly right! The whole hiding the wedding ring thing? Nah, she wasn't hiding it at all, she just wanted to give her finger a rest. To think, she would've told OP the truth if he'd just ASKED! Please, jayray313, teach me to be as perceptive as you.

I don't think it would cross many people's minds to ask wether their date is married, since married people should not be dating.

Forgive her. She had a prior engagement...

Well its better finding out that way than not finding out all...although that's still an awful thing...cheaters make life miserable. I hope you made her feel ashamed

I know that some women will wear "wedding rings" for different reasons (e.g., to shoo off men, to look cool, etc.). Or she's actually married, which is obviously the worst-case scenario. I would politely ask her if she's married, and if her answer isn't plausible, then get the ****.

That would be horrible.... I hope she finds the error in her way OP, not your fault

What a cheating **** bag. That's not right. Tell the husband at your own risk after you hopefully left her. Sheesh :/
