Today, I went to my girlfriend's house to break up with her. It was a hard decision and both of us became quite emotionally overwhelmed at the time. We began to hug as a final goodbye, then her mum burst in the room and yelled, "HE FINALLY PROPOSED!" FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me. Everything was going perfectly, right up until he brought me back to his house to tell his family the good news.

Today, my mom had my girlfriend and me over. Out of the blue, she pulled out my grandmother's wedding ring and gave it to me saying I can now propose. My girlfriend started screaming and said yes.

At least you didn't chicken out and end up proposing to her anyway, like last week's poster.

Why the hell are you breaking up if it's so hard on both of you?

I think that's a good question, but at the same time, I can understand it. I was in an unhappy, unhealthy relationship off and on for 5 years. Every time I tried to end it, I started crying just as much as he did, and I kept failing to go through with it. It took something major to actually break us up for good, and now looking back, I am soooo glad we did break up! But I also think, "Where there's a will, there's a way." And maybe if they find it so hard to break up, maybe they should just try to fix their problems. So yeah, I can see both ways, and I have experienced something like it too.
