Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 5 years. She bitched me out for not getting the ring she had been "hinting" me to get, and angrily left. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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, I proposed to my girlfriend, only for her to slap me, throwing the "fake ring" away and storming off, convinced it was a cruel joke. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend while we were on my couch having a romantic moment. She seemed incredibly excited when she saw the ring and put it on. The way she bolted out the door tells me I'm not going to see her again. FML
Today, I got home and my girlfriend was wearing the ring I bought last week. Apparently she found it and thought to herself, "Fuck it, we’re engaged now so I’ll just start wearing it", completely bypassing the actual proposal part of getting engaged. I’m actually really mad at her right now. FML
Today, after my girlfriend telling me for years that she would marry me in a heartbeat, I finally proposed. She said no. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend of 6 years. She said no. Why? She's already married. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She slapped me in the face, stormed out and won't answer my calls. What the hell? FML
Today, my girlfriend of 3 years confessed that at first, she'd only dated me to get her friend jealous, and that even now, she "only kind of liked" me. I bought a ring only a few days ago, and was planning on proposing to her. FML
Today, my girlfriend turned down my marriage proposal because the ring I gave her was bigger than the one her sister got at her proposal. Apparently she wouldn't be able to brag to her sister without "looking like a bitch for having a bigger ring". FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I hope you'll reconsider the proposal OP.

what a b***h for not respecting the moment and ruining it just because she didn't get exactly what she wanted at least you see her true colors now

Sounds like she is a materialistic snot. She should be happy with what she gets and learn to accept it. If this is unable to happen, you should probably be with someone else. Just my pov, that if she is like this now, imagine what she is going to be like during the marriage. Chances are she'll be expecting a $10 000 brand name purse and if you don't get it, it'll be the end of the world. >.< OP, you should probably talk to her about the situation.

Woahhh, everyone on this site is so quick to encourage couples to break up. Makes me wonder... After 5 years together, I would not advise 'dump the bitch' as your go-to response. That's a hell of a lot of time invested, and they were obviously together that long for a reason. Yes, her response sucks, but how about talking things over before the immediate 'break up' solution? Far out.

she's an asshole and maybe you need to reevaluate your relationship. if she's that intense over something as simple as a ring what's going to happen after you get married? my boyfriend ring shopped by himself and picked my ring out by himself. is it something I would have picked, probably not. it's not really classified as an engagement ring, but I absolutely love it bc he picked it himself, the stone is green (favorite color) who wouldn't be happy to get something that was carefully thought out and resulting in wanting to marry you in the end. superficial. geez.

#41 - #28 wasn't saying that rings need to be big and fancy. She was saying that people who want to propose should keep in mind their partners personal taste and preference before choosing a ring because their partner is the one who is going to have to wear it. So if your partner doesn't like gold then don't buy a gold ring. If they don't like big "blingy" jewellery then don't buy them a ring like that. The jewellery that they do wear is usually a good indication of what they like. Yes, a person should be happy with being proposed to and receiving a ring at all but the person they're with should at least put some effort into getting a ring they'd like. However, OPs girlfriend completely overreacted here and I'm not excusing her actions

Dodged a bullet there. You can do better.

Thanks stargirl for trying to defend me. I'm hoping enough people can relate to getting something that is not their taste. I've once bought my BF an Invicta watch to add to his collection. He acted thankful and did a great job pretending all because I tried to do something nice but it sits in its box only worn twice. I wouldn't demand him to wear it everyday because "Dammit he needs to be grateful!" Price doesn't have to be the factor here. It's personal preference to jewelry. Not everyone likes the same things. Now, you all, remember to wear that knitted sweater that grandma made from love, and not just on days she can see you in it! :P

I can see her not actually liking the ring, but she could've brought it up nicely, and not in the moment of the proposal but maybe a bit later or the next day. Then they could have gone to exchange it for a model that she likes better. I'm honestly happy that I live in a country where a ring proposal is not the norm. Yes I'm female. And married. But the wedding rings were picked together, so we both like the style.
