Found the ring...

I was doing my boyfriends laundry and  unexpectedly washed a little gold bag with an ENGAGEMENT RING in it!!! I just folded his clothes and put it back in his pocket of his pants. Now I am going crazy waiting! I thought a lightbulb might click with him and he would worry that I found it when he knew I was doing laundry but NOTHING!

    Try to ignore it.  If it was his Granny's ring he may just be using the diamonds and still has yet to meet with a jeweler to get a new setting for you which can take months to a year.

      If anything you can be honest and talk to him about it.

    </div><div>He may not be proposing with the real ring. So many men I know used heirloom or family diamonds set in a setting of their choice. Don't get your hopes up or expect it too soon... that'll just drive you crazy.</div>

    Do NOT do this....like at all. 

    Understand that HE wants this as much as you do and one of the biggest moments in his life, is when he will get down on one knee and ask you.  To see your reaction and the look on your face will be a priceless moment for him so please, please, please, do not mention anything to him about this at all.

    I waited for 6 months before I got my ring and as much as I hated those 6 months with all of the endless waiting....I wouldn't have changed a second of it looking back b/c "the moment" was amazing and everything I imagined it would be....and then some.

    You will have to keep your excitement under wraps...as hard as that may be, but trust me when I tell you it's totally worth it in the end.
