Today, my proposal to my girlfriend was supposed to be exactly when the ball dropped at midnight. Unfortunately my mother called her at 11:55pm to ask her if she liked the ring. FML

I guess you could say that OP's mum really dropped the ball with this one.

I feel like that might have been purposeful.

Some people can't keep a secret, or maybe her clock is fast

I was kinda thinking that too. If it was that's really messed up on his mom's part. Op I hope she said yes :)

But if you think about it all she had to do was watch the ball drop on tv to know exactly when he proposed

a happy surprise for a happy new year but maybe you should've not Todd your mom about proposing to her and surprised her too after midnight. But still I hope you two have a great life together

Ugh it's so frustrating when people ruin plans, but I guess she was just excited for you. Hope the proposal went well :)
