Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 4 years. I took the whole day to cook a nice meal, and stuck the ring in a cookie that I was going to give to her. In the middle of the dinner I was holding the cookie under the table, about to give it to her. My dog ate it. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Bad idea
Today, I took my girlfriend to a very nice restaurant. I thought it would be a good place to pop the question. I gave the ring to the waiter and asked him to put it on her dessert plate. When she saw it, she picked it up, put it down, and said "No". Then she started to eat her dessert. FML
Today, I proposed to the love of my life by having the waitress place the ring in her dessert. She ate the whole thing and didn't find the ring. I guess the waitress stole the ring. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. I had been hiding the ring in the sock drawer. When I went to retrieve it, the ring was gone and in its place was a sticky note that said "NO." FML
Not bothered
Today, I wanted to propose to my girlfriend, so I bought M&M's which I had customized with the words "Will you marry me?" on them. She ate them all without reading them. FML
A night to remember
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 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 took my girlfriend of three years on a romantic picnic to the park, so I could propose to her. The moment was just right, I made my move. I knelt down on one knee and asked her. Her response was "you're kneeling in dog poop." I looked down. She was right. FML
Today, I decided to ask my girlfriend of 3 years to marry me. I made brownies with walnuts and put an engagement ring into the brownie I gave her. Not only did she choke on the ring, but on the way to the emergency room, I find out she is highly allergic to walnuts. FML
The Boxer
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, I went to a jeweler's to buy a ring to propose to my girlfriend. When I was at the restaurant, in mid-proposal, with people watching, I realized I had left the ring in the store. FML

To everyone who thinks It was baked into the cookie: Read the FML again. It says "...stuck the ring in a cookie..." So no, he did not bake it in the ******* cookie. He stuck it in after it was baked. I'm not angry, just stating a simple fact.

Why can't guys learn that putting the ring in food is NOT cute? Ok, not everyone will think like me (so back off), but I personally would not want to crunch down on a nice piece of expensive metal that's supposed to mean something very special. Plus, the food method is nowhere close to original. YDI, in my opinion.

You're not alone bamargrl....personally, I can see why it would be cute for some, but there are SO many ways it can and will go wrong. I think a whole wedge of the FML pie chart should be devoted to "disastrous ring-in-food stories." The idea is for the woman to be able to see the ring at some point...otherwise, it's just going to end up down the hatch...

Seriously, most people bite cookies with their front teeth. Ever bite something you weren't expecting to be hard with your front teeth? It hurts. What's more, it could have chipped her teeth.

21- I thought the same thing. When I started reading I expected her to break one of her teeth. She was lucky she didn't eat it.

Totally agree. Why do people seem to think it's a good idea to propose by putting the ring in a piece of food? Too much can go wrong.

YDI for not training your dog properly. One of the first things a dog should be taught is to leave food in your hands, on the table/counters, or dropped on the floor alone until given a command to eat it. Even obedience training at PetsMart teaches that. Stop being a lazy pet owner. What if you had just picked up a poisoned mouse or something? Your dog would snatch it from your hand and gulp it down. My currently-in-training puppy would sit and wait to see if he were allowed to eat whatever I held.

I had a different idea come to mind when I read this. I think the ring was probably very visibly sticking out of the center, as if it was on display in the cookie. So unless she shoved it in her mouth without looking at it she would have seen it. Which I'm doubting would happen because when someone whips a something out from under a table, I know I would look at their hand to see what it is, and if he's holding a cookie in his palm with a ring sticking out of the center, she's garunteed to notice. This makes more sense to me because i doubt he baked it into the cookie, and if he shoved it inside after it was baked it would have destroyed the cookie.

I totally agree with 78, the ring had to be sticking out of the cookie unless he broke the cookie! so I would hope she would've noticed it!

I'm just asking why did you hide it under the table? Why not bring the cookies in after dinner, then give her the cookie that had the ring in it?

she would have ate the ring

*eaten No, she wouldn't have. She would've bitten into it and broken a tooth. How romantic.

Or how about propose without putting the ring in food? That just seems like a bad idea to me. Outcomes like the two above could be avoided if it wasn't in food.

You did it all wrong! You are supposed to give it to her at the lake while riding jet skis on choppy water with oily hands so you can be surprised when it ends up at the bottom of the lake. Moron! ;)
