Today, it was the second anniversary of the day I met my girlfriend. I had to go to work, but I set an engagement ring and a letter on my pillow for when she woke up, and left breakfast for her on the counter. When I got home, she and all of her things were gone. 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, 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 got a card from the jewelry store thanking me for purchasing an engagement ring a year ago and wishing me and my fiancée a long and everlasting marriage. Too bad my fiancée took off with the pizza delivery boy 6 months ago. 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 was sleeping in after working a graveyard shift. I awoke to my girlfriend sneaking her stuff out of the house. She planned on leaving her key on my pillow and taking off without any notice whatsoever. 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 fiancée broke up with me over text message while I was away for work. She later posted photos of her and her new boyfriend on Facebook, while still wearing my engagement ring. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. I had been hiding the ring in the sock drawer. When I went to retrieve it, the ring was gone and in its place was a sticky note that said "NO." FML
Today, I woke up to a note on my nightstand from my fiancée, along with the ring I proposed to her with yesterday, which stated that not only was she not ready to be married, but she’d been planning to end things before I “blindsided" her. FML
Today, I left to go home for Christmas holidays. I got 3 hours away and realised I forgot the presents. Along with the engagement ring I was going to give to my girlfriend. FML

Pretty shitty way to propose...

Did she eat the breakfast? Seriously though someone who does something that speacial and makes the best of a day you still had to work deserves someone equally special. Carry on, OP...they're not all like that.

Why would you propose and leave?

I'm so sorry to hear that. That was a nasty thing for her to do. She could have at least talked to you about it. People these days. Chin up mate, you didn't deserve that.

Ok, I have a few things I think. 1. I think I'd've rather had a proposal when I was awake and my partner was with me. 2. We don't know why she left. The proposal was a factor, but not necessarily the only thing. Fear of commitment, planning on leaving anyway, idk. It could've been the tipping point. 3. She clearly didn't want marriage at any rate, and OP should've talked to his gf at some point about the future. 4. Sorry you're in this situation OP. I hope you found out why and got this all settled.

I don't think the proposal had nothing to do with her moving out, i guess she was planning to do it days before. I know you might think is not possible she has been thinking about it and being with you everyday but how come you left everything behind for a "failed proposal" and I'm not saying you did it wrong but I have read some comments stating that you should had proposed in person. Anyway, my point is that this would happen eventually and though the timing is not specially good, you still know you tried honestly to do the right thing.
