Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. After three long weeks of him ignoring me and cancelling out on time we were supposed to spend with each other. He looked at me with the most confused look on his face. Then he says ''Are you serious? I was planning the perfect day to ask you to marry me'' FML

Today, I broke up with my boyfriend. I had only been dating him for about a month. Thinking he wouldn't take it very hard, I invited him over so I could tell him in person. Little did I know he was going to start crying on my couch and not leave for 5 hours. FML

Today, I'd been getting ready to hear my boyfriend's proposal, as his friends had told me he'd talked to them about planning it. He showed up at my house out of the blue… to tell me he's breaking up with me, only to find out he proposed to his ex hours later. FML

Today, I was going to break up with my boyfriend for taking me for granted and being such a jerk. He didn't even show up for our date. FML

Today, my boyfriend took me out to a fancy dinner. Halfway through, he said he wanted to break up. I started crying, but the whole restaurant thought he'd proposed, and started clapping. FML

Today, I went to go meet my boyfriend at a restaurant to tell him it just wasn't working out. Before I could do so, he proposed. I had to tell him no, so he started to cry and ran out. Everyone looked at me like some kind of monster. FML

You could just tell him why you were going to break up with him. And if he was planning on marrying you, you could probably get back together with him.

Haha, of course, all the bitches are the ones getting bent out of shape. Think with your brains, not your emotions. It probably was a lead in to his proposal. I'm sorry logic is such an alien thing to you guys.

he could be lying just to hurt you. some people do things just because they're jerks. did he show the ring? if he's been thinking about marrying you, he should have a ring or something. ask what kind of plan did he come up so far.

Pretty much everyone who commented is a dumbass. If you're close enough to each other to considering marrying, there's no excuse for even a day of complete lack of communication between you. & everyone saying "omg, 3 weeks, that's nothing, you're overreacting,": you're stupid. Fall in TRUE love, then see if either of you could go a day without talking at least for 5 minutes about the stupid things that happened throughout your day.
