My boyfriend and I bought & moved into our first home this past May. We had been renting a room from family before (for two years) but, being on our own just made more sense. So, we made the decision that we would get "our" first place. Technically, it is his house. But, he made sure that it was going to be OUR home before purchasing it... Now, Fast forward six months; he began talking more about us getting married. He knows I want a kind of long engagement & that I have always had my heart set on 10/10/15 for our wedding date.(It is a Saturday & will be our 5 year dating anniversary). So, I started to wonder why he was asking so many questions, & I really started hoping the BIG question was soon. But, I dismissed the thought until this past week. He asked me to go on his phone to search for something & his browser was on James Allen & in his shopping bag was a princess cut solitaire, just like I want! I pretended I did not see a thing. Later that week I went to make sure our electric bill went through with the online banking. I rarely pay attention to the savings. He does the saving, I just make sure the bills are paid on time. But, I noticed that it had decreased. Decreased just enough for the ring in his James Allen shopping bag. But, I tried not to think of it because I had a friend who knew about the ring and went CRAZY waiting for so long. So, I just told myself well maybe he bought it but that doesn't mean its going to be soon. Well, this past weekend he started asking me to plan another day trip to NYC for mid December. We went last year mid December, & I fell in love with all the Christmas Decorations, the huge tree & watching the ice skaters. While we were there I saw a proposal by the large ornaments and one in the ice rink. & I told him that Christmas time NYC proposals are magical. So, I am hoping that he is going to do it on the trip. What do you all think?
