And congrats, that's a very sweet ending to this chapter!!!!! Looking forward to seeing your dream ring. smile

How awesome!!


We do better texting as well! I don't know sometimes reading and thinking before you respond goes better than face to face and real time.

Im so happy for you! Maybe I missed it but where's the linky for us to drool over your ring too?

Thank you everyone!

So the plot thickens..

We're finally able to speak on the phone yesterday and he basically says that he was under the impression that this ring was just a present not engagement ring.

I was like.........what? The whole email and text referenced marriage. How could you come to that conclusion?
Needless to say I got upset and we kept talking and i suggested cancelling the order if it was a mistake and he said no, keep the order and maybe I could just use it later? I was like what? He was just bouncing all over the place! Like he started asking me why I loved the ring and how long I saw our engagement being. I got off the phone and called my best friend who immediately said "He's trying to throw you off so he can surprise you!" She is convinced he sat around for 6 hours concocting a plan. I'm still a little wary. Do y'all think he's just throwing me off?

Heres the ring: amora 6mm

I suggest having a face to face honest conversation about what you both see for the furture. I understand you are more comfortable writing your feelings down, but this is one of those talks that has to be face to face.

I think you should be able to discuss what each person wants for their future and what you want in your relationship openly without fear. It does not have to be an ultimatum, or anything like that.

You deserve to know if you both are on the same page.

Yes, definitely. We plan on that tomorrow night. During the call, he did say that of course he wants marriage/kids and then changed the subject. Im 95% sure he's trying to throw me off. Its just that dang 5% that makes me question myself.

I have no clue, but I would say you need toleave it alone, and enjoy your relationship with him as it is. He obvisouly knows what you want, but if he isn't ready, he isn't ready. You made your point in the initial email and he wanted to give you a present. smile That is nice and kind and sweet, so I would wear it in my right hand and enjoy my present. I am a firm believer that if he wants to, he will. Not all men want to discuss these things, and that does not mean he doesn't love you or want to marry you ONE DAY... Maybe it just means he doesn't want to now, or maybe he does want to control it and do it on his terms and be more traditional. smile Either way, I think you should just enjoy what you have with him, until you can't anymore.
