Today, my girlfriend lost one of her rings. I found this out as I overheard her gushing to her friend about how I must have borrowed it to find out what her ring size is. I have zero interest whatsoever in the sick and utterly immoral institution of marriage. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, in preparation for proposing to my girlfriend, I borrowed one of her rings so I could discreetly get her ring size. Not only have I now lost the ring, which turns out to be a keepsake from her dead grandmother, I still don't know her ring size. 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 girlfriend found the engagement ring I'd bought. She looked at it and said, "This is pathetic. You shouldn't even bother." FML
Today, my girlfriend turned down my marriage proposal because the ring I gave her was bigger than the one her sister got at her proposal. Apparently she wouldn't be able to brag to her sister without "looking like a bitch for having a bigger ring". FML
Today, I found out that my engagement ring was actually my husband's ex-fiancée's. FML
Today, I found out my fiancée has been sleeping with the salesman I bought her engagement ring from. He knew. FML
Today, I found out my boyfriend was going to propose. He'd bought me a beautiful white gold ring that I never got to see. His estranged mom stole the ring. FML
Today, I’m supposed to be proposing to my girlfriend in an hour, but my stupid, air-headed bitch sister found the ring, tried it on, took photos of her wearing it for her social media, then got on a plane to go on her girly holiday, but never took the ring off. The bitch thinks it’s funny. FML
Today, at work, my vindictive, cheating ex made me clean and inspect her new wedding ring. FML
Today, I saw a picture of my ex giving her new boyfriend an extremely familiar ring. Upon zooming in, I realized that it was the engagement ring I gave her that she claimed to have had stolen from her home. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

First, the fact that you don't like marriage doesn't make it sick or immoral. Second unless you have made it amply clear to your partner that you don't ever want to get married, they are entitled to think that if things go well, the relationship will eventually lead to marriage. Your girlfriend seems oblivious of the fact that you're so anti-marriage, so it's a **** her life from me

Then maybe you should let her know that so she doesn't keep waiting for something that's not going to happen.

You need to tell her how you feel so that she is not wasting her time.

Hey, listen. It's perfectly fine for you to dislike and not be interested in marriage, no one can take your opinion from you...BUT, you should really talk about this openly with your gf, it may be that it's actually something she cares about (hence the daydreaming about the ring) and you have to be prepared to find common ground on this if you want to go on with the relationship further. Communication is key.

Since when is making a commitment to spend the rest of your life with one person that you love more than anyone else sick and immoral? You've got some issues buddy. Maybe you ought to make your view known before dating, instead of wasting women's time.

As others have pointed out, you don't need a piece of paper descended from with sexist religious bullshit to make a commitment to another person.

Break up with her now and stop wasting her time then

All I can say is wow. I hope you have lots of video games and Kleenex - you need a life time supply

Yes, because obviously the only way to have a "real" relationship is by getting married. And the only alternative to marriage is being alone. Obviously.

Man, you're really rocking that #wastehertime BS if she doesn't know that you have no intention of making that commitment to her.

Because you don't like something dose not make it immoral. Also tell her you don't want to marry her.

Wow. You sound like a total douche in this. Let her know so she doesn't waste her time. She may love you and you may be a good man in person and so maybe she'll stick with you, but if there is this big of a difference in opinion on so important a topic, you might both be better off with other people. And what is so sick about marriage anyway?
