My bf left for work yesterday morning around 4:30am (he had to be in for 5am). He did the typical kiss me on my cheek while I was sleeping and mumbled "good bye see you in 12 hours."
Fast forward to 4pm, he walks through the door. I'm on the phone with a friend of mine from South Carolina. We were just finishing up our conversation and when I hung up my bf sat and stared at me like I had 30 heads. I asked him why he was staring at me in my jeans and sweat shirt glory. He said that he likes the way my jeans fit my a$$. I laugh and walk away to go get my sneakers so I could leave and pick up my son.
As I'm putting my shoes on my bf asks "Do you want to get married?" To which I looked at him and asked him if he was serious. He of course nodded and said absolutely. I told him we could continue the discussion after he gets home from Puppy class.
It's now around 830pm. He walks in the door from Puppy class, and asks again. I responded with "only if you're ready." He then goes on to say "I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that we will be as happy as we are now, if not happier, when we're married and that we'll be married for a long time." My jaw hit the floor. I repeated myself and said only if he's ready.
I got busy folding the 4 loads of his laundry that I did through out the day (I wish it would wash, dry, fold and put itself away!!). When I looked over at him, he was on my laptop. I asked him what he was looking at and he said "nothing." I went over and looked over his shoulder and saw what he was looking at. Engagment rings. Pretty ones. Expensive ones. I just smiled and went about folding the laundry.
This morning, I woke up to a kiss on the cheek and a "think about what we talked about last night...see you this afternoon."
I just got a text message with a picture of an engagment ring asking if I'd wear something like it.
What would you think about this? My stomach is filled with butterflies. I mean, we've talked about getting married before, but never to this extent where he's actually looking at engagement rings. He's been engaged 2x before and both of his ex's cheated on him because he works so much and can be pretty lazy on the weekends if there isn't something to do/going on. (I don't mind lazy...I like lazy weekends!)
Just not sure what to think. I'm trying to push it to the back of my mind, but the texts are making it hard to do so.....
