Same thing different taste
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me by tossing the ring at me and saying "Here, wear this." FML
Overconfident
Today, my boyfriend of five days proposed to me at the mall. FML
Selected
Today, I went out with my family and boyfriend for dinner. We were all having a good time, when suddenly at the end of dinner he gets down on one knee, takes out an engagement ring, and says, "I choose you, Pikachu," with a straight face. He was serious. FML
So romantic
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me by handing me a ring and saying, "Let's get this dumb shit over and done with." FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me during a funeral. FML
Today, I decided to pop the question to my beloved. Perfect lighting, fresh cut roses, a fancy dinner. The restaurant was in on it too. Shame they brought out the wedding-themed congratulations dessert before I actually went down on my knee. FML
Today, I was out with my boyfriend, when he started browsing wedding rings. He found a ring, proposed to me right there in front of a crowd, and then was promptly denied a payment plan. We left without a ring. FML
The Hulk
Today, my very cheap boyfriend of four years proposed. I was overwhelmed with emotion, since he bought such a huge, seemingly-diamond ring. I was later overwhelmed with emotion when my finger turned green. FML
Upon reflection
Today, my boyfriend of six years proposed to me. Less than three hours later, he panicked and made me give the ring back. FML
Perfect date
Today, my boyfriend of three years proposed to me. He brought me to our favorite restaurant and ordered expensive champagne. It was all very romantic, until he got on one knee and I farted out of surprise. Loudly. FML

It would be a "YDI", but truth is, if you're more worried about the tokenistic value of a ring than about the man who loves you enough to want to marry you, you "don't" deserve it, it being him. Ungrateful wench.

While I agree that most guys really don't have the money to drop on a really pricey ring, I don't think that using a ring pop was the most tasteful thing. It would be cute if he had a legit ring (hell, it doesn't even have to be a diamond these days) in his pocket for when she said yes, but not if he was being serious. As a girl I would much rather wait until my guy had enough money for the ring design that I wanted instead of being given a crappy little sterling silver ring. Funny story: I work in a jewelry store and I had a guy come running in one day and asked me if we had any diamond rings for $30 (umm, **** no we aren't Walmart). I told him no, so he then asked me if there was any ring in the store for that amount of money and I told him no. I finally asked him why he was in such a hurry and he told me "I proposed to my girlfriend last week without a ring and she's really pissed at me and I don't get paid until next week." Then why didn't you ******* wait to propose if you knew she was going to be pissed at you?!

Nothing wrong with Sterling silver, very snobby of you to suggest it is inferior. Not everyone can have gold, last time I wore gold earrings my ears went red and burned, and yes it was REAL gold not gold plated.

awww thats soo cute. if you really loved him you would've seen past the clichè "shiny diamond engagement ring" he's probably going to get you one when the money comes.. we're in a recession. get over yourself.

I agree. And OP: YDI, just cause this isn't an FML and you don't deserve someone so original. Seriously who does that? That's totally creative and it beats a stupid diamond ring.

I would love this proposal! That's so cute. When you tell people you're engaged and they ask to see the ring you can say "oh... I ate it :)" lol that would make a great story. But seriously, it's not the price tag on the ring that counts, it's him!

I didn't bother voting - this is not a FYL, but you do not deserve that, because evidently you don't appreciate the fact he wants to marry you at all. If an expensive ring is so much more important then that, then I think you need to re-evaluate your relationship and self.

Haha, kinda cute xD Imagine if he somehow got the real ring, INSIDE the ring pop xD That would be great... :] What did you do? lol I wouldn't know weather to take him seriously or not lol

When I proposed, I didn't even have a ring, candy or otherwise. We've been happily married for two years. I guess the difference is that neither my spouse or I are completely shallow douchebags. :)
