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 said he wanted to marry me. Since he doesn't know my ring size, he asked for me to find a ring that I liked, and he would buy it and propose. The only problem is that he won't spend more than 200 dollars on it. Oh, the generosity. FML

Today, I went with my girlfriend to the mall. We were looking at jewellery in Zales and she came across the engagement rings. She looks at one and says, "Are you kidding me? That ring is hideous and it's the most expensive one here! Who the fuck would buy that?" Well, that would be me. FML

He liked it, so he put a ring on it. It never says how much the ring has to cost.

Its horrible that he lied about how much the ring was. I would be upset as well. You should look at the bigger picture though: he proposed. I'd be happy for that. Who cares how much the ring was, and if you believed he paid that much for it, it must look real. I'd appreciate the thought.
