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, 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, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. At the right moment, I got down on one knee. As I was reaching into my pocket to get the ring, she got so freaked out she kicked me in the face. I chipped a tooth and the ring flew off, and now I can't find it. 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 was going to propose to my girlfriend of 4 years. I took the whole day to cook a nice meal, and stuck the ring in a cookie that I was going to give to her. In the middle of the dinner I was holding the cookie under the table, about to give it to her. My dog ate it. FML

Today, I wanted to be creative. I hid an engagement ring for my girlfriend inside one of her running shoes. I expected her to find it and wake me up, but she didn't. Later, when I asked if there was anything in her shoe, she responded, "There was a rock. I just shook it out outside. Why?" 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 realized that my girlfriend had never said anything about the proposal ring I had put into a box of her Froot Loops. When I hinted it to her, she said that the cereal had expired, so she threw out the box. FML

Yes or No?

Today, I proposed to my girlfriend. She said yes, but the ring turned out to be quite tight on her finger. She then chewed me out, saying that I can't do anything right, then changed her answer to no. FML

Today, I tried to propose to my girlfriend, but when I took out the ring it flew out of the box and disappeared. She's been crying for 3 hours and I'm down 2 grand. I still don't know what her answer is. FML

Is there any chance it could be from one of her parents?

Ask for it back and say it was for your other girlfriend.

Well that just plain sucks! Have you spoken to her? Maybe it's just a prank, not a funny one, but a prank none the less. If she really is saying no, then at least you can move on, but get that ring back at all costs. Call the police if you have to in order to get it back. And one question, was it a "sticky note" or a "STICKY" note. Maybe the guy she's blowing on the side jizzed on the paper as she scribbled the word NO. Just trying to help....

If it were a diamond ring, you got off easy. But if it were a **** ring, "Aw, I'm sorry."

That's just low. I agree with the others who have said make sure no one else moved it, or that it's not a lame joke. Hope you get your ring back. This one makes me mad! OP, you should update us on how it turns out.

How long have you been going out ? Because maybe she thinks it's too early. I'm not picking sides, but it does matter if you've been going out for a couple months or for a couple years... PS: Sue her for theft; take her all the way to the Supreme Court, or maybe even Judge Judy ! And after that, get on Dr. Phil.

Why hide it in the sock drawer? People change socks everyday, hide it in the underwear drawer you only need you only need to change those once a week.
