Today, my sister broke up with her boyfriend of 4 years because he hadn't "popped" the question. I've just spent the last 2 months helping him plan the perfect proposal. FML

This isn't your fault, or the boyfriend's. Your sister is a selfish little bitch. She could have asked him if she was so impatient. By the way, if she really did want to marry him and spend the rest of her life with him, then why couldn't she wait a while longer? Obviously she didn't love him that much if she can just toss him aside like that over something stupid. He's better off without her.

Everyone ever who dumps someone for not proposing needs to propose their own damn self.

So you wrote this because... you think you wasted 2 months on a relationship that won't work out? Stop being so self-centered. Tell your sister. And stop trying to plan the proposal and do it already. This isn't a fairytale movie. Get over it.

Who the hell dumps someone just because he doesn't propose? Geez, it's only been 4 years. If she truly wants to spend her life with him, why not be patient? "I only want to be with you if we're legally married" What kind of crap is that? I've only been with my boyfriend a year, but if at any point I decide I want to spend my life with him, I'll gladly wait a hundred years for him to ask if I don't ask him myself.

There must be a lot of really young commenters here. Try meeting a guy when you're 29 and now you're 33 and he still hasn't shown you that he's ready to settle down yet. Really, are you going to wait around? How long do you give a guy to decide whether or not he's ready to commit, before you start to think that maybe he's just wasting your time? Four years is PLENTY long enough to know if you want to marry someone or not, and if I was in the sister's situation I would have started thinking about cutting my losses too. Especially if you want a family one day, you do not want to wait until you're in your mid-thirties to start trying. For many women that's just too late.

^Then why not ask themselves? If you're 33 and a supposedly grown women, what is stopping her from nutting the hell up, and take some damned initiative for once in their lives. Just saying.

"Today, I got fed up with waiting for my boyfriend to propose to me, so I dumped him. When I came home, satisfied that I'd taught him to never leave me hanging, my brother told me they had been trying to plan the perfect proposal. FML" F the boyfriend's life. Your sister is an impatient ****, she doesn't deserve him if she dumped him like that.

why do men keep trying these weird proposals? makes absolutely no sense to me. if you really love her you'll ask and if she loves you, shell say yes. that. simple.

Because some people want to make it a little more special than the norm? Nothing wrong with that. Besides, you should have seen all the ungrateful people on FML complaining about a normal proposal not being good enough before. You should be glad some people are taking the hint.

Now we have a "he didn't propose so she broke up with him" FML trend.
