Today, my boyfriend of 4 years proposed to me. I said yes and he gave me an engagement ring. He immediately went to call his mom to tell her the happy news. After the phone call, he asked if he could return the ring because his mom needed money. FML

Oi. That sucks. But hey, it's okay. It's just a ring. It's not like he took back his proposal.

plexico trolls leave things more unfinished, so dumb it down a bit and add in some more racial slurs. get Plexico's ass.

I'm sorry, but if he cares more about his mommy having money than he does about showing his woman he loves her, then she needs to find a new dude. It's not for a good cause. He's a weak boy. I mean come on. Why take back a symbol of commitment just so Mommy can buy stuff?

Exactly. This chick will be funding his mom along with the mommys bit for the rest of her marriage (which probably won't last the rest of her life if she has a spine)

its kinda sad. hes mom needed the money so he had to be helpful. if he didnt yall would have called him an asshole and other shit because his parent took care of him all his life and hes not helping them in there time of need. so wat if he gave it... he will buy another one later. if the op breaks up with him because of this it truly shows shes a hoe. shes in it for a ring or money or other stuff. to op: quit bitching around. think about how the dude feels. he just got enough money to buy a ring and he asked you and you said yes. but then he had to take it back. thats embarrassing. its really not like he took the proposal away... he still wants to marry you. just wait a year or something and he will probably get you a better ring.

it doesnt mean shes a hoe. he couldve sold something else to help his mom. not the gift he just gave her! id be pissed too and say no. if you call me a hoe im not. i bought my engagement ring idc. if hes willing to ask her for the ENGAGEMENT ring back and putting his mother fordt when technically that now shouldve been the fiance first. what else will he ask for of her? seems like shes on the back burner of this relationship. and how much of a coincidence is it that the mom suddenly needed money as he told her the news. to me it sounds like they may not have a good relationship

OMG get out while you still can. Think of this as a reflection of how your marriage will be...you on the back burner every time.

Well... FYL if his mother just asked for the ring or something. She didn't have to bring it up right then. And, if there's a very good reason why she has no money (gambling, drinking, etc). However, plenty couples get married without engagement rings. Wedding rings are much more important. Don't sweat it... may be a nice ring, but at least you're still getting married.
