Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend and I exchanged promise rings. I promised that I would stay committed to him and that he was the only one for me. He promised that he would stop seeing other woman behind my back. He wasn't kidding. FML
Today, as a 1 year anniversary present, my boyfriend let me see and wear my engagement ring. He then made me give it back at the end of the day. FML
Today, I found out the promise ring my boyfriend of 4 months gave me used to be his ex-girlfriend's. FML
Today, my boyfriend bought me a ring for my birthday. My dad now refuses to talk to me, because he thinks I'm engaged. My boyfriend thinks it's funny, because he'd never marry me. FML
Today, my dad had a chat with my fiancé, telling him he can do better than me, and to think carefully before going through with our wedding. FML
Today, my wedding celebration came to an awkward pause when my dad slapped my mom across the face and called her a whore after she admitted to having an affair. FML
Today, my boyfriend's mom bought us matching purity rings. FML
Today, my boyfriend went to ask my dad for my hand in marriage. All I could make out from the door was mumbling, until profanities started flying. My boyfriend shouted "well she's a SINGLE bitch now!" and stormed out of the house. My dad still refuses to tell me what happened in there. FML
Today, my dad told me he had been seeing someone for a while and has decided to marry her. When I met her, her son looked familiar. I lost my virginity to him. FML
Today, I was having sex with my boyfriend when my dad pulled up to pick me up from his house. My dad beeped his horn and my boyfriend opened his bedroom curtain, knocked on the window, and waved. While he was still inside of me. FML

why do parents think a ring will convince their dear daughter to keep her leg closed? it never works.

And that is why you don't do it in your parents' house.

why do people focus on congratulating you for "not buying into the promise ring bullshit"? what happened to you sucks (although maybe you should have chosen a dif location to have sex) but can we please be respectful of people who do wait? choosing to abstain until marriage can be beautiful, as long as it is the man or woman who choose that path, not the parent. just sayin.

I agree, fighting hormones with a ring just doensn't work. Its nature. Its meant to be that way. Why does the church have to pay so many milions of dollars to people because of the sexual abuse? Thats right, because human's aren't made to be celibate. So why do parents still want their children to wait till marriage... :-/

because some people don't want to waste their virginity to someone who could leave them right after they get what they want. I've met many people who've waited and said it was worth it.

#20 and #21 already said everything that needs to be said

I feel like this one needs a special button that says "your dad deserved that." I'd have clicked it.

Not really. He wanted to protect his daughter and then she lies and does it 4 hours later? He deserves a daughter he can trust.

#20 and 21 clearly arent teenage girls. Sitting your dad down and explaining that your not going to wait and im assuming, are already having sex is not a good thing.

Ugh. The comments saying that it's the dad's fault for give her a promise ring in the first place are ******* stupid. OP said herself that she SWORE to her father, she PROMISED that she was going to remain abstinent until marriage and thus there is no respect to be had for her situation.

I'm pretty sure her dad didn't say "You are now abstinent!!! I'm forcing you to!!!!" he didn't FORCE her like that. And a dad watching out for his daughter? yeah he deserves everything. NOT!!!

On the bright side, i'm sure he can still refund the ring.

From your use of the word "made," it sounds like your dad badgered you into it. Like, you knew the consequences of saying "No, it's not your decision to make" were too dire to risk... If this isn't the case, and you just went "yeah, whatever dad" then you have absolutely no right to be bitching. Some people should just be happy they're getting laid. Also, #8, you're a genius.

bravo for not listening to that bullshit! it's too bad we live in a society that labels sex as a bad thing.

Society doesn't label it as a bad thing. In the bible it says that God doesn't want sex until after marriage. Some people choose that.
