Today, I tried to propose to my girlfriend, but when I took out the ring it flew out of the box and disappeared. She's been crying for 3 hours and I'm down 2 grand. I still don't know what her answer is. 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. At the right moment, I got down on one knee. As I was reaching into my pocket to get the ring, she got so freaked out she kicked me in the face. I chipped a tooth and the ring flew off, and now I can't find it. FML
Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. When she saw the ring, she got so excited that she ran to kiss me and it flew out of my hand, over the balcony of our suite, and fell roughly 45 stories straight down. I could feel my wallet screaming as a £4000 diamond vanished into the night. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I checked the box with the ring to make sure it was still there, and saw a piece of paper in it. It said, "No." FML
Today, in preparation for proposing to my girlfriend, I borrowed one of her rings so I could discreetly get her ring size. Not only have I now lost the ring, which turns out to be a keepsake from her dead grandmother, I still don't know her ring size. FML

My best guess is she's crying because the proposal went wrong--hopefully, this means her answer would be yes. Once she's calmed and you've gone back to the jeweler's for a lost/stolen ring, go back and try again!

I'm so sorry that happened. In the future, you can insure jewelry against loss, damage, or theft. I had to learn about that the hard way too after losing a $1500 necklace.

It's a sign. Instead of getting her a ring, you should pay for some therapy for her.

I don't understand how girls can act like this I mean I asked my husband to marry me while sitting on his patio (I am a woman by the way)

I feel like she's crying because she really wanted that ring so, most likely she's saying yes but doesn't know how to say it because of how frustrating the situation is.

3 hours? Really? I understand being frustrated, I guess, but to cry for an extended period of time is a bit much. In the grand scheme of life, this is not something for her to cry over. Laugh it off and help you look. If anything you should be the one crying! 2 grand is a lot of money to 'throw' away. Also if she's getting this upset about a missing ring, what will she do when life throws real obstacles? p.s. all these people that say a girl dreams of her proposal and wants it perfect blah blah blah, come on. Life is hardly perfect and I think that you need some goals and dreams if you're that fixated on a proposal. :/
