Today, I woke up with an engagement ring on my left hand. The same one I refused last month. My boyfriend apparently waited for me to be drunk to propose again last night, and has already posted the pics on Facebook. FML

Talk about an overly obsessed boyfriend. Time to move to Yemen and raise goats.

I don't think that you are obligated to marry him just because there are pics on FB and a drunken you said yes. Also kind of shady (desperate?) of him to wait until you were drunk to ask again. And call me old fashioned but your boyfriend proposed to you, you said no and you're still together?

Why were you still with him a month after you turned down the first marriage proposal from him? Seems counter productive to stay in the relationship at all, and while it was wrong and manipulative for him to intentionally get you drink to propose, YDI for staying in the relationship. If you are not willing to marry the guy break up with him and be done with it.

Not wanting to marry someone at one specific moment doesn't necessarily mean not wanting to marry them at all. It might mean loving that person but wanting more time to be very certain before making a lifetime commitment, or not being ready to commit to anybody yet but possibly to that particular person in the future, or etc. If my partner had asked me too early in our relationship I'd've said no but not wanted to break up; we celebrated our 10th anniversary this year.

I don't see a problem, if he posted it up on facebook etc why don't you just call him out on it. You don't have to get married to him just because he put a ring on your finger while you were drunk and then posted photos of it up on the internet. I find it concerning that he wouldn't respect your earlier decision. My assumption is that you are not yet ready for marriage yet you are in a committed relationship (which, my guess is, is quite strong seeing as it survived a failed proposal). Your partner should respect you, and this, to me, does not show respect at all. I'm not saying dump him. I'm saying you need to sit down with him and have a nice long chat about boundaries and respect. If he still doesn't understand that what he did was wrong then I'm not sure what you hope to gain out of this relationship.

Your fiance is a douchebag...asking someone to marry you while they're intoxicated because you know they wouldn't say yes otherwise. I'm tempted to vote YDI because you chose this real winner.

He should be mature enough to respect your decision, or he's not worth it. Marriage isn't a "needed" last "ultimate" step in a relationship in my opinion. It should be important that you are sure that person you actually want to spend /the rest of your life/ with. Not four years and get divorced.

Why are you still with him if you already turned down a proposal?

U jerk he built up all that courage to propose to you the first time and u rejected him and then he went to all that trouble to then get u drunk and put the ring on ur finger and ur mad about that! U Americans suck.

if you can't see yourself marrying him, why are you still with him?

Wait... you rejected him and yet stayed with him?
