Today, my girlfriend and I were making fun of a photo album on Facebook containing pictures of two friends who just got engaged. I jokingly asked her to marry me. She said yes. We have been dating for two months. She's not in on the joke. FML

Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She asked if the ring was a temporary thing until I got a better one, saw my dumbfounded face, then played it off as a joke and said yes. I later found out she'd posted on Facebook bitching about the ring, but with the privacy setting set to hide it from me. FML

Today, I announced to my friends that I'd proposed to my girlfriend and she'd said yes. I thought they'd be happy for me, since they were the ones who introduced me to her after all. Instead, they all were flabbergasted. One told me, "You realize we set you up with that fat chick as a joke, right?" FML

Today, my girlfriend broke up with me because of something I said 2 years ago, as a joke. I guess she took a while to get it. FML

Today, I logged on Facebook and saw my friend who'd been engaged, then broke the engagement, then got back together announce their new wedding date: three days before my wedding. She also sent me a message asking if I'd move my date. We've been planning our wedding for two years. She got engaged six months ago. FML

Today, my girlfriend of one month and I had an amazing night of dinner and dancing, but when I leaned in to kiss her, she said, "You're joking right?" FML

Today, I told my best friend I was breaking up with my girlfriend of 3 years. He thought it would be funny to tell her I was going to propose to her that night. She showed up telling me how much she loves me and that when we get married how great it will be. FML

A joke, eh? I have a feeling that the punch line is going to involve your crotch.

Because jokes are (supposed to be) funny and there is no waiting time for them, maybe? If he deserved it, than it is because he has a creepy girlfriend, not because he makes jokes.

DjeePee your comments always make sense =) That soon in the relationship, anyone would take that as a joke, unless they were much older etc AND Considering they were joking around already.... she's freaking weird for not getting that it's a joke. Conclusion: GTFO - FAST

Don't joke about that with some girls... or if you do make sure she knows its a joke. Generally saying "joking" after the proposal will do. Though you may have to accompany this with a look of humour or such a joking tone that she knows it is not for real.

WTF you smoke in the Netherlands. OP's girlfriend is a girl, and even if OP is also a girl, it's not uncommon to get an engagement ring if they were lesbian. So why does it matter if OP is a girl.
