Today, I received a "diamond ring" in Mafia Wars (a facebook app) from my boyfriend of 3 years. Along with the ring came a message. It read, "Will you marry me?" He was serious. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I wasn't expecting anything too romantic, but I would have liked something more than an email from Facebook, requesting my confirmation that we were engaged. FML
Today, my boyfriend won a diamond engagement ring through a citywide competition. Instead of proposing to me, he's selling it. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me at the zoo. With a Ring Pop. He was serious. FML
Today, my very cheap boyfriend of four years proposed. I was overwhelmed with emotion, since he bought such a huge, seemingly-diamond ring. I was later overwhelmed with emotion when my finger turned green. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I said yes and he gave me an engagement ring. He immediately went to call his mom to tell her the happy news. After the phone call, he asked if he could return the ring because his mom needed money. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me by sending me a Bumper Sticker on Facebook that said "Bitch, let's get married". FML

Today, I got a card from the jewelry store thanking me for purchasing an engagement ring a year ago and wishing me and my fiancée a long and everlasting marriage. Too bad my fiancée took off with the pizza delivery boy 6 months ago. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house with his family. A kitten walked over to me with an engagement ring tied to its collar, along with a note that said "Marry Me?" I got super excited, only to find out that it was for his brother's girlfriend of 10 months, not me. We've been together 4 years. FML
Today, my boyfriend asked me to marry him by handing me a ring and telling me, "Okay we're engaged now." I should have seen it coming when we started dating, I went to his house one night and as I was leaving he said, "Okay you're my girlfriend now." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Isn't that a good thing? I mean, yeah it's not an expensive restaurant and real ring ... but I think it's sweet and almost romantic. :)

Don't post a FML because you are sad you didn't get some multi-thousand dollar ring. He could've given you nothing, like some people on here get. lol

ok..my fiance sat next to me at applebee's held out a ring and said you wanna marry me? lol it wasnt the way i always dreamed but if he had taken me to a big romantic place and gotten on his knee it wouldnt have been him. I loved the way he did it because thats his personality. I think its sweet that her bf did that. its about how you feel about one another not the money or where it was at or how big the ring was.

More like FHL. "Today, I proposed to my girlfriend via MW on Facebook. I was serious, yet I've come to find out she's only a materialisitc bitch. FML."

It's really sweet of your bf. Accept his proposal and go shopping together for a ring. Better than receiving a ring you don't like. Creative way of proposing and you obviously play the game.

Hell you should be happy i mean sure its over facebook but meh, he will probably give you a real ring soon enough.

I'm sorry, but I just think this is plain lazy. I mean, if YOU'RE into that app as well, and it kinda means something to you, then that's a whole other story. BUt seriously, the point of proposing is to make it special. Doing it over facebook just seems cheap and lazy. If you're okay with it, I'm happy for ya. Me? I'd dump a dude if he ever did that to me.

Stop complaining. I know if my bf did something like that I'd be flattered because he's a ******* super nerd and I'd know that was just his was of really showing his love. Quit crying and be happy.

Oh, well you don't get a pretty REAL ring to wear and show off to your friends. Stop whining. At least he's showing his true affection for you. Maybe he can't afford a $900 ring that'll probably get scuffed and forgotten? Hell, what if you turned him down and he just wasted one grand on his apparently ungrateful girlfriend? Men have creative ways of doing things. You don't need to be a complete ass just because he was a little "different" in his methods.
