Today, it was our 5th anniversary, so I decided to play a little joke on my girlfriend. Before I gave her the real present, an engagement ring, I gave her a gift-wrapped rolling pin instead. I ended up in the hospital. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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
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
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
Today, my wife figured out I gave her a dollar store ring for our anniversary. FML
Today, I took my girlfriend out for dinner to a fancy Italian restaurant for our one year anniversary. After giving her some roses, freshly baked cookies, and a thoughtful poem I wrote for her, she started laughing and asked for her real gift. 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
Today, my girlfriend decided it would be hilarious if she pulled a prank on me, so she did the classic "bucket of water on a door" one. I ended up getting stitches and a concussion on my birthday. FML
Today, it's my birthday. My girlfriend gave me the present she'd bought for me. I said, joking, "I hope it's not a tie!" It was a tie. FML
Today, as a 1 year anniversary present, my boyfriend let me see and wear my engagement ring. He then made me give it back at the end of the day. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

It seems like after five years, she'd know you well enough to recognize that it was a gag gift. Unless you've just told her to get back in the kitchen one too many times and she finally snapped...

Let me guess, she made you shove it up your ass.

If the OP is lying or joking about the "ended up in the hospital" bit, that's a possibility.

Well maybe he was able to give it to her as a peace offering during the 'battle' and then when she realized she had been pranked and given a lovely ring she felt remorse over clubbing the OP half to death and took him to the hospital...

I find it funny how many people here assume that the OP's girlfriend beat the crap out of him with the rolling pin... We don't know how badly the OP was hurt, only that he went to hospital. As I mentioned in another reply, a good wack on the noggin could be enough for a trip to hospital just to be on the safe side (concussion is serious), broken bones could be another reason (some of the smaller bones don't take much force to break). I dont know the whole story either, I'm just adding a different perspective instead of jumping to the conclusion that she went all psycho and beat him repeatedly till he was black & blue...

i'd say if you decide to stay with her, propose again. this time with an oven mitt. because that might not hurt as much.. and it would be funny :) however, if you value your life... maybe set up something romantic and non funny? meh :) best of luck.

It could have been worse. You could have given her the engagement ring first and right now you'd be engaged to a psycho.
