Today, in break from tradition, I proposed to my boyfriend. We were at a Japanese Pagoda. Water was trickling everywhere; the moment was perfect. While I was on my knee, after pouring my heart out, he looked wistfully out over the water and said, "So, I was thinking pizza tonight." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Today, I decided to pop the question to my beloved. Perfect lighting, fresh cut roses, a fancy dinner. The restaurant was in on it too. Shame they brought out the wedding-themed congratulations dessert before I actually went down on my knee. FML
Today, I was going to break up with my boyfriend after we went out for dinner. To my surprise, our families were also in the restaurant, to witness him propose to me. FML
Perfect date
Today, my boyfriend of three years proposed to me. He brought me to our favorite restaurant and ordered expensive champagne. It was all very romantic, until he got on one knee and I farted out of surprise. Loudly. FML
Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I got reservations for a romantic dinner, and at the end, fireworks would spell out my proposal. The whole thing had taken weeks to plan out and had cost me a lot of money. She proposed to me at a subway station first. FML
Today, I was on a date with my boyfriend when he suddenly got down on one knee and proposed. A waiter tripped over him and spilled our food all over him. FML
Lower your expectations
Today, at a romantic dinner my boyfriend was treating me to, the waiter brought a "Will you marry me?" cake out, with candles and sparklers. I probably should have checked that they'd brought it to the right table before dramatically screaming ,"Yes!" and jumping into my boyfriend's arms. They hadn't. 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, at a restaurant, I happily watched as my boyfriend of three years got down on his knees and proposed to me. Before I could say yes and hug him, a girl flung herself at him, kissed him and shouted, "Yes!" With us still highly confused, she then ran away. FML
Premature
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me at dinner, which would’ve been nice if we hadn’t been dating for only two months, and dinner was at Subway. FML
Nervous
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. While getting down on one knee, he farted. FML

My wife wanted to try it when we were first dating. Not my bag, I must admit. I mean I'm not the biggest guy around, but I'm far from small. What's the tightest thing you know? A butthole.
bombshellbabee01 9
Maybe the anal is what scared him away
pheebs314 17
I'm just gonna toss out there that anal definitely shouldn't make or break your relationship... I hope it had nothing to do with his response.
mashimarox 12
homesexuals have different glands in their anus so anal is more pleasurable for them than wOman.
bombshellbabee01 9
Anal dosen't even sound pleasurable it just seems weird and painful,but maybe its just me...
ninjapiratejesus_fml 20

OH sorry that was my bad - wasnt thinking - my apologies

Mashimarox- No they don't dumbass. Learn ******* anatomy.
ihatethesenamez 6
Yes they do
DocBastard 40
The gland he's referring to is the prostate. Men have it, women don't. And prostrate stimulation is supposed to be very pleasurable.
tsent8 15
******* god-damn right it feels good. Anal all the way, man.

That was one of the most unintelligent things I have ever read. I think that everyone has gotten more stupid having read it. May god have mercy on your soul.

I really hope you are kidding.

Because different people have different desires. I know several gay men who do not like anal and I know several straight women who LOVE anal. To each their own and as long as it is with consenting adults who cares who sticks what in where?
Rag_dollxx 21
I am a woman and I love anal sex. I find it more pleasurable than vaginal but it's not my boyfriends cup of tea unfortunately.

How the hell did she deserve this?
U_GotitDude 18
She doesn't
xXxIracebethxXx 14
Some people are stupid and don't believe/think women should propose to men. It's rather shallow-minded.
ooooooooooooh 4
I think the op's boyfriend would feel cheated out of the proposal. It IS generally the guys place to propose and it's something that most guys feel special about doing.
itsBEEarOHseekay 12
That's a pretty old-fashioned, sexist response.
itsBEEarOHseekay 12
Good god, people are thumbing my comment down? Humanity disappoints me.
mb2_native 15
54, your right, I know if my girlfriend proposed to me I would probably say the same thing. Mainly because I love pizza and because it wouldn't feel right to me. I always looked at it as, even the women can do as much as men, some things should be left for men to do and things for women to do. But that's just personal preference and for the record, I'm not one of those sexist pieces of ***** who tell their women get in the kitchen.

stephan18 23
Proposal is the guys role, always will be. End of story, get used to it.
Bob_Cat_fml 14
The problem here isn't that the girl proposed … the real problem is that they didn't even agree on the idea of marrying. Plus, imagine the reverse FML, I'm sure the girl would've been several times criticised on refusing ‘such a cute proposal’. So yeah #84 is right, this response is sexist. The girl can propose if she ******* wants to. But the one proposing should always be sure that they're not going to embarrass their partner because they're not ready for it. There's no way she deserved it for proposing ‘instead of the guy’ or something.
dead247 13
Will she buy me a super awesome engagement ring from tiffany's?! Because I would if I was going to ask for a woman's hand in marriage. I'm keeping the dog if we divorce.
Carmstro 13
I see nothing wrong with a woman proposing. HOWEVER, as a girl, I never would personally. Mainly because i think as men assume that they are supposed to propose, they probably won't do so until THEY are ready. Therefore, if he doesn't propose, chances are he's not ready to say yes.
wickedninja918 1
I can understand that any post ever is going to get at least 100 acidental "my finger hit the wrong button" YDIs but i dont think she deserved it in the slightest so it shouldnt have got as many as it did
LogicalMembrane 3
Do girls want to propose? They haven't been cheated if they don't want it. The way I understand it, girls want to see their guy be humble and give them the power over something as important as marriage. Plus, it's more romantic to be asked than to ask. So it's not really being cheated.
amandajlucas2015 2
I just asked my bf Wut he would do if I proposed and he said he would look at me weird and say no.. So it's not really that weird of a response of OPs bf
saksxalmo 20
#189 - Yes, some girls do want to propose. Hence the FML. And people (boys and girls alike) are taught that guys SHOULD propose, so of course girls can't really hope to. It's not that they wouldn't want to if they could, it's that they aren't used to thinking about it that way. If that makes sense. I mean, the reason men usually propose has to do more with the old patriarchal form of marriage that treated women as property and marriage as business than with women's desire to propose... So even though I know I'm going to be thumbed down for this, I think it's stupid to say that the guy has been "cheated out of" something. Women almost never get to propose, so it seems to me that they're the more "cheated" ones... And if they want to get married, it should be about loving the other person, no?! Not about who proposed to whom... Excuse me if I ramble, as it is late and I am full of turkey.
SettingSun89 5
You make a good point.
cutlass81 6
84, say what you want, but it is very un-manning to be proposed to by your lady in public. I want you to imagine what the male onlookers would think of the guy. A man you'd marry would probably give you anything in the world. Don't take from him the chance to surprise you and a chance to see he truly makes you happy
gribbles 12
200 - or maybe it's because he doesn't want to get married to you?
awkwardpenguin1 3
It's not wrong it's just odd since its guys usually doing it
DarthVader77 9
I'd drop her on the spot. Maybe there are some men who would like it but not me: I need to know that I decide, not the other way around. Well, 8 years of marriage cured me of illusions, I am so looking forward to divorce!
cr3ativity 15
Well, idk about this... She could be the oag, or he could just not be ready, or he's not looking for marriage. This FML is a toss-up, ladies and gentleman
happle 21
He could have at least been polite about it.
mb2_native 15
He was, what's more polite than offering pizza? I would forgive anyone for pizza :p especially the ones with jalapeno in them..
Carmstro 13
If a man posted this and this happened we would probably be saying definitely FML...
opoopu 8
Steaks or burgers are yummier than pizza.
marcranger 29
You might have tried anal, but did you try a homemade pizza? The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, ya know.
trippythehippy 6
Those who believe the way to a mans heart is through his stomach really needs to take anatomy.
xXHollowIchigoXx 17
It's a figure of speech you **** head. No need to get literal.
tsent8 15
Actually it's through the sternum go through the stomach and thing are just gonna get messy.
I_lost_the_game 25
23 and 55. Please have a sense of humour. That will make the site more fun
YoungMisfit 9
Actually it's through is stomach and penis
kxxjoejoexxk 8
Laughed hard at #23 that was hilarious thumbs up for you sir
puddingface94 3
I think that was the sense of humor
tsent8 15
135 that was my sense of humor well I guess in gonna go sit in the corner now
sens3sfailing 25
135- you are the one in need of a sense of humor. It was quite obvious 23 and 55 were making literal jokes to be funny and if it went over your head, you take everything waaaay to seriously.
MalloryKnox 8
You're all wrong! I'm just going to end this argument once and for all. The fastest way to a man's heart is with Chuck Norris's fist! Duh.

Wow I'm so sorry. You deserve more.
RadikulRam 16
Yeah you better be sorry, or else I would have murdered you and OP, but thanks to that comment I shall retain my urges.

Well, pizza is the shit.
lorraineald 7
Suddenly... I have a craving for pizza.
bombshellbabee01 9
Try again. Put the ring in the pizza. Thats another romantic way to propose.
ohSNAPyall 27
More like, PIZZA FOR ONE. >:|
Teyros 24
Make sure the ring isn't in the cheesy crust :D... Its too good to ignore.

Ouch, that sucks OP. Kudos on trying to be outside the box though!

Comment moderated for rule-breaking.
Very romantic not a good choice of a man though, the woman shouldn't proposed, it's not right. Sorry OP
DomDomxoxo 16
Eum I'm sorry? Why shouldn't women propose?
Inheritance 10
I'm not saying they can't, I'm trying to say it looks better if the guy does.
Zomg_Okay 27
26 - It's pretty simple really. 8 doesn't agree with the idea of the human race progressing.
awkward_gothlady 32
Looks better to whom?
JennaNGood 21
I agree with 8 - not that a woman shouldn't propose, but if you're in a committed relationship, a woman shouldn't HAVE to propose, if he's mature enough to decide he want s to get married, then he will propose
Pleonasm 36
This is a pointless argument it doesn't matter who proposes, what it looks like shouldn't matter except for the two concerned, and the human race can progress without both people proposing.
Hiimhaileypotter 53
31- Just stop. It really doesn't matter who proposes as long as both people are on the same page with it - which, judging by this FML, I don't think OP and her boyfriend are.
Inheritance 10
Agreed Pleonasm
Pleonasm 36
I'm not saying you're right, I'm saying either can and should propose and they shouldn't care what others think, and so arguing who should is pointless here. And I'm also saying that the human race can progress without both sides feeling obligated to propose and that a man categorically proposing has no real incident, so is not stopping human progression, but is however valued for equality. But it's not like women haven't already proposed, so this argument is going nowhere.
Idaho4177 4
It could be that the man is embarrassed that his girlfriend had to propose to him. He could have been thinking of when his friends asked how he proposed to her, he would have to say he wasn't man enough. Not saying I agree with that, just what could have been going through his mind.
RedPillSucks 33
Or he didn't feel the urge to get married. After all, he's getting anal without having to put a ring on it.
Inheritance 10
Yes and I agree Pleonasm. I'm not saying that only men should propose, either or can I don't care. Just to me in my own opinion men are more obligated to proposing. Mostly because of outcomes like this.
clueless05 12
Women can propose! Good on you OP!
BabySparkle1 15
I used to believe that the man always had to propose. But if you're in a committed relationship and he isn't proposing, then there is no harm in the women proposing. It's about time things are done different, good for her but i'm sorry about the outcome.
gc327072 31
I'm glad I live in the south and don't have to worry about being labeled a chauvinist if I propose.
Grimmerie 31
I hate traditional gender roles. As a straight man, I would be over the moon if my girlfriend proposed to me. In fact, I'd prefer that over proposing myself.
saksxalmo 20
#170 - It's not about what you choose to do, it's about what you tell others to do. Men who propose aren't sexist, but people who say that women SHOULDN'T (or that men shouldn't, for that matter) ARE.

Tell him, no answer = no pizza
