Today, I decided to ask my girlfriend of 3 years to marry me. I made brownies with walnuts and put an engagement ring into the brownie I gave her. Not only did she choke on the ring, but on the way to the emergency room, I find out she is highly allergic to walnuts. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 4 years. I took the whole day to cook a nice meal, and stuck the ring in a cookie that I was going to give to her. In the middle of the dinner I was holding the cookie under the table, about to give it to her. My dog ate it. FML
Today, I wanted to propose to my girlfriend, so I bought M&M's which I had customized with the words "Will you marry me?" on them. She ate them all without reading them. FML
Today, my boyfriend gave me a fancy chocolate candy and I got angry at him for forgetting that I'm allergic to chocolate and threw the candy into the garbage disposal. Turns out, he had spent a ton of money getting a chocolatier to put an engagement ring inside the candy that I just destroyed. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend to a very nice restaurant. I thought it would be a good place to pop the question. I gave the ring to the waiter and asked him to put it on her dessert plate. When she saw it, she picked it up, put it down, and said "No". Then she started to eat her dessert. FML
Today, I forgot my boyfriend was allergic to nuts and ate Nutella toast before he arrived. He had just brought me flowers for doing well in an exam and I kissed him. He had a reaction and I had to stab him in the leg. FML
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, it was my 17th birthday. I didn't want my family to spend money on a cake, so my dad made this delicious apple ring. At least, it was great until my mouth began to itch and my throat closed. I have been allergic to nuts since birth, and my dad put walnuts in my birthday cake. FML
Today, my fiancée and I were selecting our wedding cake. The wedding is now off since I refused to buy her the "dream" wedding cake she wanted because it was chocolate. She called me childish and cheap. I'm highly allergic to chocolate. FML
Today, I gave my boyfriend a box of chocolates as a present. A few hours later, he texted me saying that the box of chocolates contained nuts. He's allergic to nuts and his mother now thinks I'm trying to kill him. FML

Way to fail. Putting engagement rings in food is soo gross and a weird way to propose, anyway.

3 years and you didn't know she was allergic to walnuts? Did she say yes when she got out of the hospital? :]

why would you do that? the ring would get all nasty and covered in brownies... and like many others said, yeah that's pathetic that after 3 years you didn't know she was allergic to walnuts...

I would've just been pissed off that you got brownie all over my ring... You both fail. If the allergy was THAT serious I'm amazed you didn't know about it, that's one of the first things I asked my boyfriend of three years when we started getting serious (Although that's also mainly because I like to cook and needed to know what he couldn't eat) but she should've asked if there were nuts in it first.

seriously, even if i didn't know a person, i wouldn't make them something with walnuts in it. and you KNEW, no, DATED her for THREE YEARS, and you didn't even know that she was highly allergic to something? either this is fake, or you are the BIGGEST. IDIOT. EVER.

#47, lol. I understand that you might not have talked about food allergies with your girlfriend... but you probably should have paid more attention when she apparently shoved half the brownie in her mouth, didn't chew and tried to swallow the engagement ring. -_-
