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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, 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
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 planned to propose to my girlfriend in front of her family at dinner. I had the ring ready and got down on one knee. She immediately burst into laughter and said, "Are you kidding?" The family stared in silence, and I quickly realised she was just teasing me... until I stood up and knocked over an entire table of drinks. 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 proposed to my girlfriend. She asked if the ring was a temporary thing until I got a better one, saw my dumbfounded face, then played it off as a joke and said yes. I later found out she'd posted on Facebook bitching about the ring, but with the privacy setting set to hide it from me. FML
Today, I was trying to propose to my girlfriend when some scumbag snatched the ring and bolted. I chased him down, tackled him, and punched him until he gave the ring back. Now my girl is upset, crying, "What if he was hungry and needed to buy food? You didn't have to hurt him." 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, I proposed to my girlfriend with a ring from Kay Jewelers. She saw the box, started giggling, whispered, "'Kay", and then started laughing so hard at her joke she had to excuse herself. FML

Time to tell that crazy girl "Goodbye!"

Why would she think it's a joke? Have you done it to her before? Or is she just stupid

The real question is did you do something to make her think you would do that to her?

Why is almost everyone immediately thinking she's a bitch? Who's to say OP isn't a constant liar and cruel? I dated one of those types of guys. "Hey we should do [insert activity]!" I start making plans then ask for his input. "i didn't invite you. I guess I could ask but I never really meant to include you." ALL THE ******* TIME!

Agreed if that is her first reaction I'm wondering what OP could've said or done in the past that she would think it was a joke. I'm wondering if OP made a lot of marriage sucks jokes giving her the impression that he doesn't view it seriously or has a habit of pulling "pranks" that aren't really pranks.

Exactly^. It sounds like he's done this sort of stuff before. There is always the chance that she's reacting like this because of past experiences or because she is crazy, but those are not as likely in my opinion. Or it could also be they've only been dating for a couple weeks or they're only 16 or something. But again, more likely that this is the sort of thing OP's done before.

When my now fiancé proposed, I also thought it was a joke and that the ring was a fake. It took me 10mins of being told that it was not a joke to actually believe it.

Is she normally over dramatic? Have you done anything that would make her think it was a joke? Does she have emotional or mental issues? We don't know what the facts are other than what OP stated. If she is just a high maintenance diva, he should just move on. If she has other issues, then they need to talk about them. Either way, good luck!
