Hey ladies! As you'll see in my profile, I'm quite the lurker. I wanted to be more active, but feel weird because I'm not engaged. Anyway, I've come to you wise folks for some advice, possibly a talking off the ledge.
My BF is deployed. He wanted to propose before he left, but we ran into an issue with an ex-friend which depleted our savings (thank God we had it put back!). The proposal didn't happen. He has mentioned that he's looking at rings, we've discussed what I like, and he has it budgeted into his deployment funds (as in he knows what he is coming back with AFTER buying the ring). He constantly calls me "Mrs. Misterhoundpuppy" and things like that. When I correct him, he corrects me to his last name again.
The excitement is KILLING me. The one thing I cannot get him to do is talk about a timeline, and it's so frustrating. I don't want to know exactly when he's going to do it, but I'd like to know when he wants to be married by, normal things like that. I want a general idea. He insists, "Stop worrying about it, let it be a surprise!". I've tried to put it out of my mind, and even told him that if it isn't happening soon, I would appreciate him not teasing me, not telling me things about it, etc. So he talks it up, then will make it sound like it's not happening for a while, and then I get upset (but I don't tell him I'm upset...I'm not pressuring).
Am I being a bitch? BSC? I want to pull my hair out.
