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 thats your lame way of proposing after 5 years, you deserved to be beat.

He deserves to get beat? That's pretty messed up, I don't think anyone deserves to get beat over a joke.

Yeah, it's only ever the man deserving of violance if he did something she didn't like, right? I'm starting to think some women believe they can do whatever they want - apparantly you included, as you seem to think she was in the right, dishing out domestic violence.

Now you know not to give her the engagement ring. A healthy sense of humor, and being slow to anger, are crucial to a lasting, healthy relationship.

So how come women can get away with hospitalising their men but guys would be accused of being wife-beaters and sent to jail?

I hope it's earlier, otherwise I will probably go to jail for womanslaughter. You have no idea how many women/ girls i met that are just like that.

We win. You lose. Deal with it.

That's a great mentality, some_girl. I assume that when you think back on the beatings your father gave you that turned you into such a cyst of stunted ethics, you chuckle and utter, "He won, I lost, better get over it."

Hey some_girl, you're the kind of female I can't stand! Congrats! Go to hell!

We still win. You lose. Deal with it. It will never change, so there.

I doubt you got sent to the hospital, some people on here just make up shit and this sounds like ur one of them.

One solid hit on the head from a rolling pin can cause concussion and is reason enough to go to hospital if only to get it checked out.

Yeah... I'd say press charges and get a refund for the ring after you show it to her. She obviously has no sense of humor.

Its a pretty lame sense of humor if you ask me -_- like the one time my boyfriend "broke up" with me. It was a joke according to him, and he couldn't understand why I "overreacted" like that. To all the jerks that find this sort of thing funny....well its not!
