Not Engaged Yet

so excited!!!

About 2.5 weeks ago, Paul and I looked at rings. I got my finger sized, and actually found a ring I really like. P even said that he'd get it for me even though it was over budget. In a conversation we had, he referred to me as his soon to be fiance!!!! We are so excited to be taking this next step together. He even said how excited he is for the holidays coming up, and the exchanging of gifts specifically. We're planning on going out again to look at rings soon. This man is amazing, I know he's the one I want to pledge my life to. I don't care how much he pays for my ring, it'll be special because it's from him.
Thanks ladies for listening to my sappy rant, this is the first time in my life that someone wants to do this with me, and it's a first for him too. We've been inseperable for about a year. He's my world.
So excited! I'll keep you guys updated!
P.s., sorry I was gone for a while! I love this board.

Re: so excited!!!

  • That is so exciting!!! Yayyyyy for love! 
  • Congratulations! Ring shopping is so exciting!

    I'm sorry I have a terrible memory! Did you ever post in the Intro thread?

    Tell us about you and your SO. How did you meet? What area of the country are you guys in? What's your favorite thing to do with your SO?:



  • I did post on the intro boards about two months or so ago?
    I'll try and find it and link it.
  • I'm sorry, guess I've been gone too long :(

    I'm having a visions of Starbucks and garbage cans. It's not a great sign if the regulars on the board can't remember if you've ever posted here before, so it's like coming into a room full of people you don't know and saying 'HEY LOOK AT ME, I HAVE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE!'

    (Granted, many of us here are married, but how would you know that?)

    Anyway, congratulations and have fun on the wedding boards.
    Uh oh OP, the popular girls dont remember you! You better run and hide.

    Haha I was just excited, didn't mean to offend anybody! What does Starbucks and garbage cans mean?
  • And I thought this was the board to be able to post stuff like this? I'm not engaged yet, I don't have anything others don't.

  • Cool story, bro.

    Remind me again why you want to post this happy sappy rant to a bunch of girls who are only interested in "fighting and criticizing"?

    o.O

    WHO ARE THESE POPULAR GIRLS????
  • I just wanted to share my excitement. The particular post you're referring to, yes, I did see alot of critical comments, and so I said that comment about fighting and criticizing that's all. People seem sort of mean and judgemental, on that post as well as this one when all I wanted to do was have people to be excited with. I didn't mean to stir the pot. Sorry guys!

    She didnt say everyone on the boards was criticizing, just some ppl
  • "You're all such bitches, but be super excited for my soon to be engagement.  Oh, and feed my BSC."

    Um, nope.

  • If you wouldn't walk up to a group of people you've ever said five words to in the past and say 'I looked at engagement rings with my boyfriend!' then why would you do it here? Yes, the board is called 'not engaged yet,' but like any other group of people (besides 'Just Engaged and Proposals') it helps to establish some interest in other people before you expect them to be interested in what's going on with you.

    @lifeisajourney - good try acting like your 'popular' comment wasn't meant as sarcasm.

    Still here and still fabulous!

  • Ok, while I agree with you @cu97tiger‌ , I have introduced myself on here before, it's linked up above. I had quite an extensive conversation with you guys. Like I said, I apologize for stiring things up, I'm really not one for drama.

    I just want to point out that a total of 31 posts with a two month hiatus do not really count as "hanging around and getting to know us."

  • I agree, I only joined oct 10th, so more like a two/three week hiatus.
  • Ok, there's no need to attack a simple grammatical error on my part.
