So I haven't started a thread since I talked about my BF, his mom and problems arising from it. If you don't remember here is the link:

Everything with that worked itself out and BF and I haven't been happier. We talked to his mother and things have cooled down a lot. His brother and SIL are expecting a baby and his mom is cherishing and respecting her kids more which makes BF happy.
Anyway, the past few days BF and I have been talking more about our future and what's going to happen after I graduate in May. We finally settled that we would like to get married next year around August. But no ring yet and NEY.
Yesterday I wasn't feeling that good and I was pretty sad and upset. BF came over and tried to cheer me up but I was in a woeisme state and he gave up. I spent the night at his place last night and he finally sat me down and talked to me.
We discussed with each other how we both need to have more fun with our relationship because recently every night we've been sitting around watching television and what not. I missed going out with him and I think that's why I was a little sad because it was another night of boring TV.
And neither of us have really had a deep conversation with one another recently and I missed the connection. I told him this and he got upset and understood completely. We discussed doing more things now that it's going to start getting nicer and spending more time away from the television and spending time together as a couple.
Well last night as we settled down, he told me that things were going to start picking up soon (which is true: 2 grads, 2 weddings, his brother gets ordained, etc) and then he lays it down for me. He says, "Besides, by end of summer we'll be planning our own wedding so we'll be so busy. I just want us to enjoy each other because we'll never get this time back when it's just us."
I smiled and agreed with him. While it's exciting to me that we'll (most likely) be engaged by the end of summer I get where he's coming from that it'll just be us two only for a short time before the hectic summer begins. And we'll most likely be stressed from this summer until next year. But it's okay because I'm with him for the long run and everything will be okay!
