Today, I was working my shift at the restaurant as a waiter when the girl I've been in love with for 4 years came in with her boyfriend. He asked me to hide the ring in their dessert. FML

Today, I proposed to the love of my life by having the waitress place the ring in her dessert. She ate the whole thing and didn't find the ring. I guess the waitress stole the ring. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend to a very nice restaurant. I thought it would be a good place to pop the question. I gave the ring to the waiter and asked him to put it on her dessert plate. When she saw it she picked it up, put it down and said "no". Then she started to eat the dessert. FML

Today, a waiter fucked up by bringing a dessert with engagement ring to our table. My girlfriend started crying and saying, "Yes Yes Yes!" The look on her face when she had to take the ring off and give it back to the other woman… She’s now giving me the silent treatment, even though I did nothing wrong. FML

Today, I asked the restaurant manager if he could arrange to deliver an engagement ring to me and my girlfriend with our desserts. Desserts came, no ring. That guy wasn’t the manager, just a guy in a suit who legged it with my ring. FML

Today, I ran into my serious boyfriend of two years at a restaurant. He was sitting with another girl. I went over and asked him who she was. He replied, "Who are you?" Apparently I was the secret girlfriend. FML

Today, my boyfriend brought me to a restaurant on a surprise date. I guess he didn't know that my ex-boyfriend now works there, and that he would be our waiter for the evening. FML

Today, my boyfriend was seated in my section at work. As he sees me his face drops... he's on a date. He had forgotten I work there. I had to serve him and his date, and they didn't leave a tip. FML

Today, the guy I've been dating for 3 years got engaged to a woman I can't stand. I work as a waiter at a catering company, they hired the company and requested me as a server for their engagement party. 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 took my girlfriend out to eat at a diner where my friend works. My friend was our waiter but too busy to talk much. He texted me after we'd left to tell me that my girlfriend had slipped him her number. FML

If you were just in love with her and never stepped up to ask her out or anything, you have no one to really blame but yourself.

Which one, the Sahara, the Kalahari or the Mohave? No wonder she chose him, you're a poor waiter and he's so rich, he owns a ******* desert! (The after-meal treat is a dessert.)

If your not hotter than him than get over it lol if you've loved her for four years and you haven't tried anything than you must not have loved her all that much. " if you love someone let them go, if they don't come back they weren't yours in the 1st place. "

I always find these "the person I've been in love with for X years" FMLs hard to judge/Not enough information... Did you date at one point, fall in love with her, and she broke it off? Have you just been lusting after her from a distance? Are you friends and you're just afraid of ruining the friendship or she's always had a boyfriend? I guess it doesn't matter if OP actually loves her or just lusts after her or something, it would still be difficult to be in this situation. But I think in many cases, this isn't actually love. I'm not saying you can't be in love with someone you haven't dated, just that I know a lot of people (myself included) who thought they were in love with someone without getting to know them very well, but then realized it was just lust/idealizing them.

You didn't make a move and she had a boyfriend. So, basically he had all the rights to purpose. Go to the wedding and hook up with a brides maid invited or not.
