Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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
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 proposed to me by tossing the ring at me and saying "Here, wear this." FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed. He said we’d go pick up the ring tomorrow. Then he asked to borrow $40 to get it out of pawn. He pawned it when his ex gave it back to him. 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 gave me the most beautiful diamond ring I have ever seen. As I excitedly put it on my finger, he told me it wasn't an engagement ring, but I should wear it like one to keep other men away and seem "unapproachable". FML

He is not obligated to propose just because he won a ring. Sorry

I don't think she technically deserves it. Especially since we know so little about the situation. Obviously OP and her boyfriend didn't communicate well about this and she ended up disappointed. It's not entirely fair to say she made big assumptions when we don't know the real story.

your logic digusts me. just because he won a ring dosn't mean that he HAS to propose to you. YDI.

Maybe he's selling it to get you a better one.

I wouldn't be upset, maybe he just isn't ready to get married. If I wasn't ready, I'd sell the thing too!

Thats exactly why hes not proposing. Why buy the cow when you can milk it for free.

Maybe hes selling it so that he can get more cash to buy you a even bigger and better ring...? Something thats nicer and fits you better? I dont know, just look on the bright side...

Why did he enter the competition?

Because engagement rings are worth a good chunk of money? Just a guess.
