Today, my girlfriend started bitching me out about how public proposals are unfair and how they pressure a girl to say yes. All I did was get on my knee to tie a loose shoelace. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She said yes, but the ring turned out to be quite tight on her finger. She then chewed me out, saying that I can't do anything right, then changed her answer to no. FML

Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 5 years. She bitched me out for not getting the ring she had been "hinting" me to get, and angrily left. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend of nearly 2 years out to dinner so I could propose. When the waiter brought the check, I caused a bit of a scene to get everyone's attention. When I got on my knee and proposed, she said no and asked if I could hurry up and pay, because she was embarrassed. FML
Today, after my girlfriend telling me for years that she would marry me in a heartbeat, I finally proposed. She said no. FML
Today, my girlfriend fell asleep while I was proposing. 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 proposed to my girlfriend, only for her to slap me, throwing the "fake ring" away and storming off, convinced it was a cruel joke. FML
Today, my girlfriend caught the bouquet at her sister's wedding. I took it as a sign so after we got home, I proposed. She laughed and said no way. I'm done. FML
Today, I tripped over my own shoelace after explaining to my boyfriend that my shoes being untied were good luck for me. He then took that as the grand opportunity to tell me that we were breaking up. FML

Sounds like someone really doesn't want to marry you. If you're in this seriously, you might consider finding someone else who is serious, too.

There's a difference between saying, "I love you, sweetheart!" in public and the spectacle that public proposals cause. Suddenly the proposee is surrounded by strangers who are hanging on their every word and ready to judge or comment if they say no. That's a lot of pressure and not cool if public proposals/marriage in general isn't something that hasn't been discussed. It's not that hard to feel out if your loved one is someone who's against or for public proposals BEFORE you get on one knee.

Am I the only one who thinks she thought he was going to propose? And, when she realized he wasn't that's when she got upset and had a bitch fit. Sounds like she wants that ring and is mad she didn't get one.

Tell her not to worry. She won't be getting a proposal public or private

While I agree with her, that really sucks. How was it not clear you were tying a shoelace?

Get on a knee and ask her to break up with you.

Be very careful not to drop a broom in front of her.

One question, and nobody get offended.... Is she a feminist? cause I can only imagine.... >~> "oh, my god. All guys do is publicly humiliate women by getting down on one knee like some "prince" and giving girls jewellery and asking OWNERSHIP of us. And the pressure is all on us, because if we say no, WE'RE the bad guys, but we're the VICTIM! We're always the victim. But it forces women to agree to become slaves to men, sexist pigs."

That's...not what feminism is.

Eh, all the ones I've met that call themselves one usually act that way, which is why I asked. Besides, I thought what I put was pretty humorous. Then again, I'm into slightly more controversial humor, I really wouldn't have been surprised if I'd offended some people.
