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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend found the engagement ring I'd bought. She looked at it and said, "This is pathetic. You shouldn't even bother." FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he'd drive me to the jeweler's to pick out a ring. We drove there, I picked the ring, and the sales person rang it up. I glanced at my boyfriend, only for him to reply, "Well don't look at me!" FML
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, I got home and my girlfriend was wearing the ring I bought last week. Apparently she found it and thought to herself, "Fuck it, we’re engaged now so I’ll just start wearing it", completely bypassing the actual proposal part of getting engaged. I’m actually really mad at her right now. FML
Today, I went to a jeweler's to buy a ring to propose to my girlfriend. When I was at the restaurant, in mid-proposal, with people watching, I realized I had left the ring in the store. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me with the prettiest, most simple ring I have ever seen. I called my sister to tell her the good news, and her response was, "I know. He had me steal the ring from Claire's." FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went shopping for an engagement ring. We ended up breaking up in the process. FML
Today, I was shopping for rings with my fiancée. We spent over two hours selecting the perfect ring and diamond to match. When filling out the paperwork I discovered I left my wallet at home. She had to pay the 20% down payment for the ring. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend with a ring from Kay Jewelers. She saw the box, started giggling, whispered, "'Kay", and then started laughing so hard at her joke she had to excuse herself. FML
Today, I found out that my beautiful engagement ring is a remake of the late Princess Diana's engagement ring. I also found out my fiancé bought it from an infomercial, for $19.95. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Return and exchange! Choose one she liked! If she has to wear it her whole life it better be something she doesn't think is "hideous".

She was probably just saying it was hideous because she thought she could never get it, little did she know..I'd return it and get her something she likes, hey if it saves you the money!

HAHA i had a similar incident with my fiance. I bought here a heart cut engagement ring, because the first ring i ever gave her was a heart amethyst. Before i could ask her, she told me she thought a heart cut diamond would be ugly. She liked it the ring when i finally popped the question.

I think shes nasty and ungrateful and you shouldnt bother getting married to her.

Why is she nasty & ungrateful? The OP doesn't say, but I'm assuming his girlfriend didn't know that he'd bought her that exact same ring. Maybe if she had known, she'd have been more tactful. People should really do their research before they go blowing a chunk of their wages on an engagement ring. Find out from her friends & family, or if all else fails, propose anyway & then go ring-shopping together! That also gives you an excuse to show what good marriage material you are by holding her bags, treating her to extra little gifts, etc.

Generally the proposal is supposed to be a surprise... And generally you have the ring at the proposal.

Note to men: if you don't know your girlfriend's taste or are bad at picking out jewelery, bring their mom/sister/best friend along when you're shopping for one...
