A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

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, I found out my boyfriend was going to propose. He'd bought me a beautiful white gold ring that I never got to see. His estranged mom stole the ring. FML

Picture perfect
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, 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, 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

Is she better than me?

Wear it to humor her. She doesn't need to know you two are doing it like rabbits. Some things...mommy just doesn't need to know.

And that's better than being a ****. I'm glad my fiancé and I waited for each other. If other people want to **** around it's their problem, but don't judge those that have values in such a stupid way. (and no, it doesn't always have anything to do with religion)

did u guys already have sex

This could go either way. If they are 17 or older it is stupid, but if they are younger than that they aren't responsible enough to have sex.

You realize it's only a matter of opinion. In the US the age of consent is 18 and you tend to think anyone having sex younger than that is an irresponsible child. But just to remind you that the age of consent in the UK is 16, in Japan it's 13 and somewhere in the Middle East it's 11 (although I suspect for other reasons). The only one who can decide if a person's responsible enough to have sex is that person themselves. If someone has sex with whoever, whenever just so they can say that they're not a virgin anymore is probably not that clever in other aspects of life either. But hey, nowadays if you do something stupid and end up with a kid, it seems quite common that mommy will look after it for you, so society isn't exactly teaching responsibility anyway.

I'm 21, and have a purity ring... How is someone wanting to protect themselves and wait "stupid"? It's a personal choice, one that my fiancé and I have made together,and one I am extremely proud of.

So if you didnt have the ring, you would be a **** and shag anything that moves? I thought the ring didnt matter, if you dont want to enjoy sex, then wait and you should be able to do it without having a ring.

49 - Actually the age of consent varies by state. Here in Washington the age of consent is 16. Hawaii used to have the youngest at 13, but in the last couple years raised it to 16. The highest age of consent (I want to say is in Oklahoma, but don't quote me) is 19 in one state. That being said, I agree with you completely. It really is a matter of opinion and choice.

The age of concient in the middle east has little do do with age directly; a child is considered an adult at the age of puberty and expected to take on various responsibilities at that time, including (if Muslim) daily prayers and yearly fasting. I hope those are the "other reasons" you suspected.

54, A purity ring, like a wedding ring, is a symbol of a commitment. That doesn't make it stupid.

I think that a purity Ring is stupid, simply because you should not need something to show you are commited to something (wedding rings are more to say no you dont want to bang every person present). If you decide you want to stay a virgin go for it, but if you have a ring and then decide to get laid... You just wasted money on that ring and look like a hippocrit and ass for flaunting your commitment to somethimg you threw away.

What are you supposed to do with the purity ring? Pierce your ******** with it or block your ****** with it?

Hey just remember to remove the rings when you guys do any fingering... :)

Everyone seems to think 17 is the cut off. FML knows best, apparently... (seriously - let her live in ignorant bliss and be responsible).

Buy her a card that says congratulations grandma.

How nice are these rings? You could sell them and use that money for some nice toys... Or ice cream. You know, whatever is age appropriate.
gracehi 33
I object! You're never too old for ice cream!

With the lack of information, not sure if virgins or **** like rabbits.
