Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I said yes and he gave me an engagement ring. He immediately went to call his mom to tell her the happy news. After the phone call, he asked if he could return the ring because his mom needed money. FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed with the perfect ring, restaurant, flowers, and champagne. He’s never been this well prepared for anything in his life, so he admitted that my mother planned the whole thing and forced him to propose, even though neither of us want to get married. She even bought the ring. FML

Today, I found out my boyfriend was going to propose. He'd bought me a beautiful white gold ring that I never got to see. His estranged mom stole the ring. FML

Today, my boyfriend told me he's prepared to commit to marriage, but only if I buy my own ring and tell everyone he surprised me with it. FML

Today, my fiancé won't tell people we're engaged because his mother doesn't approve, and he doesn't want to upset her. FML

Today, I decided I would tell my mom I'm not going to marry my fiancé because it just didn't feel right, only to walk into my own surprise engagement party. FML

Today, I found out that my boyfriend asked me to marry him because he could get a tax cut from buying the ring. All of this happened in front of his mother. FML

Today, I called my mother to tell her that I got engaged. In the 15 minute conversation that followed, 13 were spent listening to how this is going to affect her. FML

Time to tell him to cut the cord, the apron strings & get off of his mom's breast if he wants a relationship (it's for ONLY YOU & HIM, NOT HER). An engagement ring for her too, so she doesn't feel left out? OMG! It's your wedding not hers...if she would seriously "FEEL" left out, then there's something WRONG...dump mommas boy & find a man. There is NO reason for him to by her a ring too..FOR ANY REASON OTHER THAN STUPIDITY. Leave him before she walks down the isle & spends the honeymoon with you, also he WILL be yelling her EVERYTHING that should be private between the 2 of you..get out while the getting is good.
