Hey everyone.
I've been a long time lurker on the boards, but this is my first post.
A week or so before Christmas my boyfriend of 5 years and I picked out and purchased an engagement ring. My bf kept the ring and we didn't really talk much about for the next few days.
I was under the impression that he was going to propose for Christmas and that the ring would be my gift. However, come Christmas, no proposal. I gave him his gifts Christmas morning and he said that I would get mine later but to no avail. Thus, I did not and still haven't received anything from him for Christmas. He said he wants to wait and make the proposal a good one and I'm all for that, but I do not think it is right to not get me a gift for Christmas. I am upset over this. I don't think the ring can serve as my gift if I don't have it yet. I have tried to explain this to him, but he totally disagrees and seems to think I should think of the ring (which I do not have) as my gift.
What do you guys think? Am I making too big of a deal about this??
