Not Engaged Yet

Will he????

Me and my boyfriends anniversary is coming up this month. For a while I didn't think he's propose. He has mentioned that when he does ask the big question, it won't be on a holiday or on my birthday. The other day, I telling my co-workers that we're taking a day trip to RI for our anniversary. Then it hit me....He might propose!

After that train of thought, I've noticed signs. Now, we all know that us women tend to over think things, so there could be a chance that there will be no proposal. BUT he called me his fiance the other day, then quickly back tracked and called me his girlfriend. While discussing how to decorate our bathroom, he said, "See, that's why I'm marrying you." He's been singing Single Ladies lately, which is odd.And yesterday he was asking about diamond rings. Plus, he gave me access to his e-mail and bank account for emergency purposes a long time ago. Starting last week, they were both changed. He's gotta be hiding something, and I hope he's not cheating haha!!! Again, I could be totally reading into wrong.

While discussing this with my best friend, we talked about how we're trying to save money, so why would he propose now? But then I remembered, when I was layed off and we were really tight on cash, he bought me a new Nikon camera-not cheap! So I could see why he would and wouldn't. I know that I must keep in mind, to not get disappointed if he doesn't propose. What do you guys think?

    If I had heard FI singing "Single Ladies" he never would've gotten the chance to propose.

    A relationship where one person snoops bank accounts and the other sings beyonce around the house and neither seem to communicate. Guys, I think this one is going the distance.

    Edit: FI used our joint savings account to save for the ring.  I knew this, so I never checked it. Not even once.

    Seriously, he probably won't.  If he said he won't propose on a major holiday or other already-special day, he probably won't.  And even if he does, you'll be better off convincing yourself that he won't.

    A surefire sign that a man is about to propose.

    Look, if he does, great! If he doesn't, oh well. If you're that disappointed about a lack of proposal, talk to him (calmly) after the trip and discuss timelines - when do you want to get engaged, get married, etc.? When does he? I cannot emphasize enough the importance of communication.

    But uh, why are you sneaking on his bank account?

    r u sure he's not gay? All the men i know who suddenly break into 'Single Ladies' are gay men. 

    But u have to chill out and stop snooping.  Imagine how hurt he would be if he found  you were doing that?  Plus, how much would it suck if you did find something out and then that ruined the surprise for both of you?? How old are you guys and how long have you been together?

    I have access to my FI's email.  He told me to go and look at something video game related in his email.  I found an email from the jewelry store where he purchased the ring.  I found that email about 3-4 months before he proposed.  The moral is... don't get your hopes up.  If it happens great.  But if you spend the whole time worrying about it, you'll ruin your vacation.

    I think he will propose after you take English 100 (and pass it).  He is just singing "Single Ladies" to taunt you.

    possibly, but DON'T TRY TO FIGURE IT OUT. I was like you (and in some ways, still am). When i get a hint of somthing, my mind won't stop until i've solved it. this paticularly came to bit me in the bum when he went to propose. I had figured it out as the night went on, which really SUCKED b/c i wanted it to be a supprise, but i couldn't let it alone.
     so he proposed, and obviously i said yes, but i pritty much ruined the night, b/c by the time we got to the zoo, everytime he would pause or we would get to a really public area, i would look at him thinking "are you going to do it now?"
    by the end of the night he still hadn't poped the question, but i knew my mom had given him our family's antique engagment ring so as we are about to walk out i'm thinking, never mind--its a long story, anyhow DON'T TRY TO PUZZLE IT OUT! :)

    Well, I personally, am not wounding anyone. I attempt to not physically attack people. But whatever works best for you! Also, side note, I was like  this before I got engaged. Planning a wedding and watching the insanity of my lfe happen does not make me b*tchy. If I am, I am silent.

    People wounded?  Who was wounded? 

    Oh, that's right.  My eyes were wounded.  I won't try to puzzle out why they were wounded though.  That would just ruin the supprise.

    You never know.... just make sure you look GOOD that day.

    I hope he does for your sake, the anticipation can be killer.
    Either way, just enjoy the day with your man, there's a ring coming at some point right? Don't ruin the surprise for yourself.
