Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of two years after eating in a 5-star restaurant. She said that she wasn't ready, and that she would walk home by herself, which she did. A homeless gentleman walked up from behind me, patted me on the back, and said, "Bitches, man." I cried. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I got reservations for a romantic dinner, and at the end, fireworks would spell out my proposal. The whole thing had taken weeks to plan out and had cost me a lot of money. She proposed to me at a subway station first. FML

Today, my boyfriend took me on a surprise date to an expensive restaurant. After the meal, he got down on his knee and proposed. We've only been dating for two weeks, so I said no. He just silently kept staring me in the eyes, no matter what I said or did. I ended up having to walk home. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of four years. Her response? First, she threw up all over me, then she started crying hysterically. I'll take that as a no. FML

If she doesn't value you, you deserve better than her. And you will get that.

A girl just said "no, later" to a somewhat early proposal and walking home to avoid the inevitable awkward conversation that will likely follow, and all of the commenters are acting as if this is some kind of heartless act and saying that OP deserves better, like, c'mon, did you people even read the FML?

I voted YDI, but only because my finger slipped. OP most definitely did not deserve it.

You might say he deserved it for not talking about it beforehand. The proposal should not be a surprise, the execution should.

Well, I'd like to see things from both points of view. She doesn't feel ready, and a diner in a 5-starts restaurant couldn't change this fact. She still feels not ready. Maybe replete but still not ready.

I'm sorry OP. Give her time, she'll come around. Patience is a virtue.

Exactly.
