Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, at work, my vindictive, cheating ex made me clean and inspect her new wedding ring. FML
Today, an ex-boyfriend of mine came to the jewelry store I work at to pick out an engagement ring for his girlfriend. The same guy who just a few months earlier ended our 8-year relationship because I wanted marriage and he didn't. FML
Today, I found out that my engagement ring was actually my husband's ex-fiancée's. FML

I hope you convinced him to get an ugly ring then :) Sorry, OP.

I admire the fact that you were actually ABLE to help him do that. It shows that you're the bigger person. He is scum for making you do that though, on top of the fact that he's scum for cheating!

I hope you didn't give him your discount.

Every kill begins with Kay.... Murder him? I'm just kidding, OP. A cheater like him isn't worth the effort. You deserve a loyal man. Go out & get him!

That's a tough pill to swallow, but I hope you sucked it up and pretended to be the happiest person in the world. Don't give him the satisfaction of seeing you hurt, he probably came to you for that very reason, asshole.

How did you not notice that? I mean, him asking you for a ring is kind of weird given your situation, don't ya think?

And this, children, is how we come to the conclusion that OP works in a jewelry store. *claps*

It's in the post...

I assume that OP probably could not find a way to get out of assisting her ex without a) making a scene OR b) getting into trouble with her boss. Either way, I doubt OP had a choice. I'm sure she was aware of who/what he was looking to purchase the ring for the entire time.

It took me a second, too! But, walmart-girl is right, you should've thought it out before posting. Brave OP, may have had the chance to dip, & sought that comission instead. I hope he was making all the wrong choices, that might put a smile on her face.

It's small consolation but at least you won't have the nagging worry his new wife will have about him cheating, and you can find yourself a new good man :-)

I would have picked out the ugliest one you had available. (:

She did help him, didn't she? "Grow a spine" doesn't go with this FML.

Very professional of you.

That just shows how much good character you have! Good for you, OP, for not being a bitch. I'm sure something good will come to you.
