Today, it was the second anniversary of the day I met my girlfriend. I had to go to work, but I set an engagement ring and a letter on my pillow for when she woke up, and left breakfast for her on the counter. When I got home, she and all of her things were gone. FML

Oh my god, please accept my sincerest condolences. I hope you find a real keeper.

Next time take the day off and propose in person?....

Something like a proposal is a very serious conversation between the couple involved and must be face to face. It should also not be treated as a "romantic stunt" with clowns and balloons and crowds of spectators or family. You seriously screwed up by not having the character to discuss this before hand and not doing it in person.

Truly sorry op. For someone to walk away like that without a word doesn't deserve the love and care from another person.

Should never have proposed like this. Sorry man, YDI.

That was a terrible way to propose, right next to texting or leaving a voicemail... Very impersonal. It was just as terrible and impersonal for her to take all her stuff and leave without even talking to you.

Not all proposals have to be so stereotypical. We don't know what the situation was between the two. Maybe the girlfriend told OP once that she likes to wake up to surprises and he remembered it. In that case, it would be totally cute and romantic.

They actually sound kind of perfect for each other when you put it like that.

Wouldn't you want to be there when you proposed? Are you sure she didn't leave you a note saying yes?

A simple no would have been sufficient

I'm wondering if she took the ring too...

Aw I'm so sorry OP, that is pretty heartbreaking.

Only two years and you didn't even propose in person? You're lucky she just took HER stuff.

It seems that you are better without her. It's time to spread a rumor that she has herpes

Spreading a rumor like that is just childish and would also imply that OP has it as well…
