Love: Surprise!

Surprise!

By theboy6494 - 10/08/2009 20:47 - United States

Today, I came home early from business trip to Paris, where I bought an engagement ring. I was going to take my girlfriend of two years out and propose to her. I sneaked into our house as a surprise and… she was having sex with another man. Now I have a ring that I can only return in France. FML

Today, I got home early from work at 2am to find my girlfriend of 5 years missing. Upon further inspection, I caught the "other man" dropping her off out front. So much for the engagement ring I bought for her. FML

Today, I went to a jeweler's to buy a ring to propose to my girlfriend. When I was at the restaurant, in mid-proposal, with people watching, I realized I had left the ring in the store. FML

Today, I proposed to my girlfriend while we were on my couch having a romantic moment. She seemed incredibly excited when she saw the ring and put it on. The way she bolted out the door tells me I'm not going to see her again. 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, I proposed to my girlfriend. When she saw the ring, she got so excited that she ran to kiss me and it flew out of my hand, over the balcony of our suite, and fell roughly 45 stories straight down. I could feel my wallet screaming as a £4000 diamond vanished into the night. FML

Today, I'm living with my now ex-girlfriend of 9 years in the house we bought together. What's worse than that is the fact that 2 weeks before she told me she was unhappy and ended it, I had bought an engagement ring. I didn't get the chance to ask, and had to return the ring. FML

Today, I was out with my boyfriend, when he started browsing wedding rings. He found a ring, proposed to me right there in front of a crowd, and then was promptly denied a payment plan. We left without a ring. FML

Today, I finally made the last payment on the beautiful engagement ring I bought and proposed with - two years ago. To my ex-girlfriend, who said no and promptly started sleeping with one of my friends. FML

You got off cheap. That's one expensive wedding and one expensive divorce you don't have to worry about.

Where do you guys meet these girls? Holy crap! Save it. It could be reset into a necklace for your mom. Mom's ALWAYS love jewelry. You need to raise your standards, too.

Save it for the real one. Just never let her find out it was intended for another chick

These cheaters are really stupid. If you're with someone for 2 years, don't you think you'd know when the other person is coming back from a trip to France? ESPECIALLY if you're cheating on them? Wouldn't you dot all your Is and cross all your Ts...unless she wanted to get caught that is.

About the ring, I would try to sell it back to the jewler. Maybe he'll take pity on you and give a full refund? The reason I say dont keep it and try to give it to another girl is not only the memories, but most people i know when picking out an engagement ring, usually pick something in that girl's style, or something unique to their relationship. The new girl (the one really meant for you) will have a different style, and so will your relationship with her. To me, that requires a unique symbol of love, and using a ring from a previous relationship doesn't quite signify that to me.
