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

OP, if you've ever read FML before, you should know that surprise proposals with no discussion of marriage beforehand don't work out too well. Yes, she should have stuck around to tell you "no" to your face, but can you be totally surprised at her reaction if you didn't have a good idea what it was going to be? YDI.

Maybe she wanted a traditional get on one knee will you marry me proposal?

Well, maybe he should have waited until he got off work to propose, but that doesn't mean he deserves this. He made an effort, and if you truly love somebody, that effort should freaking count. Plus, it's not like she had to make a decision spur of the moment and flubbed it. She had all day to figure out the best, gentlest way to do this. If someone tells you they want to spend their life with you, swiftly fleeing is considered poor manners.

That was a very bad way to leave a relationship, but that was also a very bad way to propose.

I proposed to my husband. I think it was horrible for her to leave you like that. I wonder though, what set her off? It couldn't have just been the ring, this might have been the straw that broke the camel's back. Or maybe you wanted something she didn't and rather then discuss it she left, in the hopes of making it easier? Hopefully this leads you to the person you were meant to be with.
