Today, my oldest friend got engaged to her loving boyfriend of one year. Meanwhile, I can't even get my boyfriend of more than four years to commit to a decision of what he wants for dinner. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I congratulated my friend for getting engaged. This is the fourth friend of mine this year that has become engaged. I haven't even had a boyfriend yet. FML
Today, my sister, who has been seeing a guy for a year, got engaged. I've been dating my boyfriend for over 5 years and let out some not so subtle hints and he basically refused to propose. This is her second marriage in the time of my relationship. FML
Today, after three years of dating, my boyfriend finally proposed. To my best friend. FML
Today, my best friend got engaged to the guy she's been seeing for five years. He also happens to be the man I've been in love with for eight. As she was giving me the details, she nonchalantly gave me her reason for accepting the proposal: "Why the hell not, there's always divorce." FML
Today, my long-term boyfriend took me to my favorite restaurant. After the main course, he knelt down and finally proposed to me. I was so happy, I almost cried. Until an old woman came over and said I was way too old for him. I'm three years younger than my fiancé. FML
Today, my boyfriend of two years asked his friend to propose to me for him, because he was too nervous to do it himself. FML
Today, my sister broke up with her boyfriend of 4 years because he hadn't "popped" the question. I've just spent the last 2 months helping him plan the perfect proposal. FML
Today, my fiancé of two years told me he was bored of me and he'd just prolonged the engagement to see if anyone more interesting would come along in the mean time. He was upset because no one did. FML
Today, it's our fifth-year anniversary with my boyfriend. I gave him his gift and walked over to the kitchen to serve him some food I'd made. On my way back to the dining room, I overheard his plans with his friend to ditch me in 10 minutes. FML
Today, my boyfriend of 3 years announced that he is not ready for marriage, and won’t be for 'at least' another 2 years. Of course he waited to tell me this 2 days after he had proposed to me in front of hundreds of people, I said yes, and we announced it to all our family members and friends. FML

Why are you comparing the two? You obviously love your boyfriend, so what if he can't choose dinner. It's just dinner.

Some people are just indecisive!

Don't create problems where problems don't exist. If you guys are going to get married, it will happen on its own. People move forward at different times in their lives. Good for your friend but you don't need to copy her.

I feel you on this one. My boyfriend of 5 years will NEVER make a decision, then shoots down every suggestion I make. I need a man who knows what he wants... *sigh*

you say the type of shit like "im so fat" and "look how ugly i am" as well huh?

15, if you need a man who knows what he wants you might want to consider breaking up with your boyfriend. It kind of sounds like you already have one foot out the door and are just keeping him around for comfort. Just a thought.

At least he doesn't ask for a smoke break during sex.

Being unable to decide what to have for dinner is a serious problem and should not be made fun of :(

I fear the large menu! Cheesecake Factory; it takes me forever to decide!

I think he has commitment issues

Commitment issues because he can't decide what to have for dinner that logic.

Besides, isn't one year kind of rushing into things?

Everyone progresses at their own pace. My grandparents met on a Tuesday and were married the Friday the next week. 50 years later they're the happiest couple I know. Yet my parents dated for 7 years before getting hitched and they hate one another now.

damn, like a week n a half? shit dawg. thats either super cute or kinda weird

They claim it was love at first sight and just knew. Obviously it has worked out for them so I'm happy for them. My only point being that some people progress faster than others in relationships and such

Time for you to keep making decisions for till he says no... Then go in the direction he pointed...

Men will not settle down unless they feel the need to & want to keep their partner around. Either he doesn't want to keep you or doesn't feel he needs to do anything special to make you stay

Hey, it's a very tough choice.
