Today, I was going to propose to my girlfriend. On our way to the Space Needle I was pulled over and promptly arrested. Apparently, I had recently purchased a car from a man who had robbed a jewelery store. The ring is now evidence. 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 went to a jewellery store to sell my wedding ring, after a long and painful divorce. The shop owner took one look at it and called the cops because I tried to sell him a diamond ring that had been stolen from him 3 years ago. My ex-husband left the country a week ago. FML

Today, I proposed to my girlfriend with the cliché of the diamond ring in a champagne glass. Apparently there was an off-duty police officer across the room watching me slip the ring into the glass. He thought I was slipping in a date-rape drug and tackled me down before I could propose. 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 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, 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

Today, my boyfriend proposed. He said we’d go pick up the ring tomorrow. Then he asked to borrow $40 to get it out of pawn. He pawned it when his ex gave it back to him. FML

Today, I was trying to propose to my girlfriend when some scumbag snatched the ring and bolted. I chased him down, tackled him, and punched him until he gave the ring back. Now my girl is upset, crying, "What if he was hungry and needed to buy food? You didn't have to hurt him." FML

Your life is awful. I'm really sorry, that is terrible. Well, I guess your girlfriend now knows you were going to propose... I hope she still said yes!

If you have a receipt for the ring you're OK. Sure it sucks being inconvenienced.

I am a police officer in Seattle, we are not jerks. We do our job, correctly, and the law is the law. We follow orders, do not patronize us for doing our job

I'm from Seattle! I always imagined there are marriage proposals every 15 minutes at the Space Needle.

I'm from Seattle too! I would have loved to be proposed to there but I live in stinky NJ now. And he wouldn't have the reciept on him. It'd be at home and it'd be hard to get it while being arrested. FYL

I take your FML to mean you were planning on using the ring you found to propose? If so, you 100% deserve it. If not, then what did your proposal plans have to do with the story? You just confused things by adding that.

I think he meant that, since he was driving a car bought from a man who had just robbed a jewelry store, the cops assumed the ring he had actually purchased (not from the robber) to propose with was part of what was stolen from the store. So now they are keeping it for evidence. But this FML was a bit confusing. Had to read it over a couple times.
