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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I found out that my engagement ring was actually my husband's ex-fiancée's. FML
Today, while shopping at American Eagle, I found the same "$1,500" wedding ring my fiancé proposed to me with, marked on sale for $10.95. FML
Today, I found out my fiancée has been sleeping with the salesman I bought her engagement ring from. He knew. FML
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
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 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, 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
Today, I went to sell my wedding rings, due to the fact that I'm getting divorced from a man who cheated on me. The jeweler informed me that the stone in my engagement ring is fake. I won't even be able to cover the divorce costs from the proceeds. FML
Today, my girlfriend found the engagement ring I bought and assumed it was a late birthday present. She’s now wearing it on her right hand like a signet ring and she somehow hasn’t figured out it’s a diamond and not a Swarovski. I'm now waiting for her to figure it out before I pop the question. FML
Today, my boyfriend won a diamond engagement ring through a citywide competition. Instead of proposing to me, he's selling it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

The important thing is that you like it and he got it for you.

It's a ring, it's symbolism if anything. It doesn't entertain, put food on the table, pay the bills, or do anything of any significance and is easily stolen. I find it amazing that people make such an emotional investment in something that is essentially worthless.

He should have got the ring with the AM/FM radio built in. She would have liked that better.

If you are complaining that your fiance lied to you about the value of the ring, then FYL; I wouldn't want a fiance like that. However, my sympathy for the OP only goes so far. How much did YOU spent on his ring? My guess: $0.00, because you didn't buy him a ring. Does the ring look good, or is it an eyesore? By your own admission, it's "beautiful." Is there some function that a real ring serves but your ring doesn't? No, except "wasting money", since diamond rings have no useful function. Get over it.

You're assuming things yourself FFML. "I don't think she's arguing the fact that her marriage should be about the cost of the ring, but more about the sensitivity and sentiment that her fiance should have. It's obvious he hurt her feelings and had he made a big ordeal about it and put a ton of thought into it, I doubt she'd be bitching about it" Wow. They should have people like you on Criminal Minds! I mean, you just deduced all of that from 2 lines? wow, that's something. The point is, we can't know anything here. It could be the guy is broke, and couldn't afford something more expensive so he bought that ring. It's possible he exeggerated about the price as well. But than this could ALSO come from good intentions, or at least he didn't want to seem like a cheapbroke loser in his fiance's eyes. This is one of many possibilities. In her eyes the ring is beautiful, as she said so herself. As long as she loves the ring, and they love each other, that's what matters. Oh and please, some of you are actually saying there's a difference? So there's a difference if he had went to some store and bought another ring for $19.95 rather than the infomercial one? Huh? I don't see any reason here.

126, I was too. My boyfriend and I saw the commercial and he joked about proposing with that ring. I told him I'd rather have him propose with a ring from a vending machine or a Ring Pop than that ring.

What the hell are you complaining about? You said it's beautiful, and more importantly he wants to marry you. It isn't about the ring anyway. Jesus, lady, it's people like you that give other women a bad name. (Guys, we aren't ALL materialistic, you know. Just... disregard this chick.)
