Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 almost-mother-in-law demanded I give my engagement ring back because it was originally her great-grandmother's, and she has now decided she wants it to go to her youngest son’s fiancée instead. My fiancé agreed and told me he’d just buy me another. He doesn’t get why I’m so upset either. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed with the perfect ring, restaurant, flowers, and champagne. He’s never been this well prepared for anything in his life, so he admitted that my mother planned the whole thing and forced him to propose, even though neither of us want to get married. She even bought the ring. FML
Today, I'm going to be helping the love of my life pick out an engagement ring for my cousin. 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 fiancé won't tell people we're engaged because his mother doesn't approve, and he doesn't want to upset her. FML

Today, my fiancé pawned off my engagement ring so he could buy himself a PS4. FML
Today, I found out that my boyfriend asked me to marry him because he could get a tax cut from buying the ring. All of this happened in front of his mother. FML

Thumb up if you think that's a tad weird...

It's typically best practice to stop at one wife... Your partners choice in women is somewhat alarming too. His name doesn't happen to be Oedipus, right?

tell him that his mom will be walking down the aisle on your wedding day.

That's awkward for you AND the mom . If my kid bought me an engagement ring, I'd be a little creeped out.

Um, so I would just give her yours, and take the fastest train out of there. That is just weird. Life sometimes gives you hints, it might be good to pay attention to this one!

Will he go down on one knee when he gives it to her over a candle lit dinner? Good luck with the honeymoon as well.

Well give his mother the ring and run away. Trouble ahead if you go on with that guy.
