Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

So touching…
Today, my boyfriend of five years finally asked me to marry him. He said, "We could save on taxes if we got married… What do you think?" That was the most romantic thing he's said to me in the last two years. FML
A bit cowardly?
Today, my boyfriend of two years asked his friend to propose to me for him, because he was too nervous to do it himself. FML

Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I said yes and he gave me an engagement ring. He immediately went to call his mom to tell her the happy news. After the phone call, he asked if he could return the ring because his mom needed money. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he's prepared to commit to marriage, but only if I buy my own ring and tell everyone he surprised me with it. FML

Today, my boyfriend of over two years said he wants to get married before he leaves for basic training. Not because he loves me, but because he'll get paid more if he's married. This is the only time he's been excited about marriage. FML

Not gonna lie, I'd probably smack my guy if he said that... Just ouch. Not even CLOSE to a good reason to get married.

don't say yes. i have no experience with marriage (only 16!), but I know you'll regret it if you accept.

Wait, what? I'd do it, especially if it's mutually beneficial.

In the US, married people can't consolidate federal loans anymore, if that's what you have for student loans. If you want to get married, go for it and then afterwards...oops, the loans don't consolidate!

"Married students are no longer able to consolidate their loans together. This provision was repealed effective July 1, 2006." http://www.finaid.org/loans/consolidation.phtml That man is too stupid to marry, forget how conniving he is.

if you don't want to get married, don't. trust me, it would SUCK to be married to someone for only one reason. every day i thank god my spouse isn't a lameass. it's a way bigger deal than some people think it is. i'm sure you're not though if it occurred to you that this is in fact a FML situation.
