I started lurking here when my best friend was planning her wedding. Until recently i started lurking on the NYE. I have been with my bf for 2 years now and of course i know he's the one. We know we're getting married and for about 6 months he's been telling me i am going to get a ring "soon". Ok "soon" to a woman is a couple weeks. "soon" to a man may be a couple years? That was 6 months ago. i dunno? LoL i'm not impatient at all just overly excited. Well a couple days ago he came home (we live together) and he had just gotten off the phone with his mom. She asked him when he was giving me a ring half kidding and he told her something and told her we were getting married and she's estatic! She was half kidding because he's a guy and doesn't really talk to his mom about that stuff. I think she was fishing for some info. And he said this is why he doesnt tell her stuff because she gets CRAZY excited. She asked if he'd do it before x-mas. I didn't get to hear the answer! I was kinda trying to change the subject because i dunno, i mean i want to know it's gonna happen but i dont wanna ruin any surprise. Or talk about it a bunch before.. he likes to talk plans and what not and im the type that doesn't want to plan anyhting before it's official. So long story short, i think it's going to happen before christmas and i'm so excited, happy. I can't even sleep thinking about how it's all going to go down... it's somewhat surreal to me. Things like this don't happen to me.. i'm on cloud nine and the days seem to go so slow now. Do they know how much they drive us nuts with anticipation? Seriously.... to end i'll just say i love him and so thankful for him. I'll wait forever if i have to but i'd rather not!
It's great to know all of you are out there anxiously awaiting also. Truly, a big comfort.
