ydi. I'm sorry but if he hasn't been romantic in that long it's time to get rid of him.

He was probably nervous about it, a lot of guys are.

That's not a boyfriend. That's...an accountant.

Apparently a lot of guys suck at doing romantic proposals, because there was at least one other FML just like this one earlier on this site.

Generally "finally" means you're happy--as in OMG my bf FINALLY asked me to marry him!! And yet oddly you're here complaining that your bf asked you to marry him. You hung around 5 years waiting for him to ask you to marry him JUST so you could post on FML didn't you?

I think the girl said yes... her username is "weddinggirl". Oh well, not everyone can have a knight in shining armor, I guess.

and you are still with him? ydi for being a dumbass and staying with him that long.

damn 16 you're fuckin hot..

ydi for possibly not having enough sex with him, or not blowing him enough.

YDI for complaining about saving taxes.

Lol at 17

Well, he is being practical. Just so you don't expect romance, you'll be fine.

that's soooo sweet NOT hey at least u got what u wanted didn't you??? tell him yeah ur gonna save money but u want a nice wedding

Ok. YDI for staying with that douche and now possibly marrying him if THAT was the most romantic shit he ever pulled in FIVE fucking years! That's a lot of wasted time. If this really is an FML, then back the fuck out of there, quick! and don't come back!

Actually, 59, it was the most romantic he has ever said in TWO years. :)

Agreed with #1 Whilst it's a little clinical and demanding, the way you act in a relationship to some extent determines the way your partner reacts to it. My guess is OP didn't act very enthusiastically about the relationship, or make any sort of request of the guy. I know a lot of 'men's men' guys who are more than willing to at least be pushed around or instructed in romance, or step up for the right girl. OP, you settled for it, so YDI.

41 nice pic of master roshi!!

at least he wants to save taxes. doesn't that matter?

now. let us ask ourselves. she's complaining about something she could've changed. so that's a ydi

There are dudes that are more interested in world of warcraft than blow from their chicks. They're idiots, but they do exist.

at least he proposed...

I agree 110% percent with #1

but you still probably said yes, OP.

Yea she's lucky he proposed, especially after not boning/blowing him enough!

hey, I'm not her, so I guess she's lucky!

34 so saying it ones isn't enough?

EXACTLY! She should be blowing him! Not being all boring and dating!
