The Most Disastrous Marriage Proposal Ever

The Most Disastrous Marriage Proposal Ever

Poor, poor bastard. From Reuters:

It is the one moment every man wants to get right -- and which London floor-fitter Lefkos Hajji could hardly have got more wrong....Hajji, of Hackney, east London, had concealed a $12,000 engagement ring inside a helium balloon. The idea was that she would pop the balloon as he popped the question. But as he left the shop, a gust of wind pulled the balloon from his hand and he watched the ring -- and quite possibly the affections of his girlfriend -- sailing away over the rooftops.

"I had to tell her the story -- she went absolutely mad. Now she is refusing to speak to me until I get her a new ring."

And now, a special open letter from us:

Dear Guy Who Lost His Girlfriend's Engagement Ring By Accident,

Even if you do find your really expensive ring somewhere in the atmosphere, please don't marry this girl. Ever.

Love, Living
