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.

Sorry, but you know whether or not you want to marry someone after four years. If he hasn't at least brought it up hes not interested in marrying you. If you are looking for marriage you don't want to be in one of those 5+ year relationships without marriage just hoping and wishing that he will propose.

And your point is what? There's a difference between knowing and being ready. My husband and I knew that we would marry each other a two or three years into our relationship but he didn't propose till we were 5 years in.

As long as you two love each other it's fine, no point in rushing things

Look on the bright side, statistically speaking if you do get married your relationship would most likely last longer because you've known each other longer.

story of my life op. *hugs* i know it doesnt make it any easier, but when he finally does decide hes ready, youll know it wasnt a snap decision, and that he really means it. and if not, then you wont have an expensive divorce to deal with, and youll know he thought about that long and hard too. good things come to those who wait.
