Love: Today, I found a ring box in the pocket of my boyfriend's pants...

Today, I found a ring box in the pocket of my boyfriend's pants while doing laundry. I eagerly walked up to him knowing that it was an engagement ring, hoping that he would propose on the spot. He tossed it back to me and said, "Well you found it, I don't actually have to ask now, right?" FML

Today, my boyfriend asked me to marry him by handing me a ring and telling me, "Okay we're engaged now." I should have seen it coming when we started dating, I went to his house one night and as I was leaving he said, "Okay you're my girlfriend now." 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 was going to propose to my girlfriend of 3 years. I checked the box with the ring to make sure it was still there, and saw a piece of paper in it. It said, "No." FML

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

Panic on the streets of Sydney

Today, I thought the ring my boyfriend bought for me had fallen off while emptying the trash into the bin. After panicking and emptying a week's worth of rubbish onto the ground, I found my ring safe and sound. On my other hand. FML

Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. I had been hiding the ring in the sock drawer. When I went to retrieve it, the ring was gone and in its place was a sticky note that said "NO." FML

Today, my boyfriend proposed to me with the prettiest, most simple ring I have ever seen. I called my sister to tell her the good news, and her response was, "I know. He had me steal the ring from Claire's." FML

I think OP does deserve it, she totally ruined his plans, she should have just put it back in the pocket and kept her mouth shut.

My mom did my dad's laundry before they were married. I wouldn't have done it, but that doesn't give me the right to judge her for doing it. And how do you know he was sitting down?

I can understand his reaction, he must have been pretty down-hearted if he had plans to do it romantically

I would've been puzzled. Was I expeced to find it there? Was this a unique laundry proposal? I'd just put the ring on, go about my business, and see how long it took him to notice.

Fyl and ydi. I mean, odds are he wanted to surprise you, so you probably should have at least pretended that you didn't find it. That being said, just because you found the ring doesn't mean he can't still be romantic.
