This is a pretty cute article. Thank you for sharing sugary! Here are a few I especially liked and got me to just now thinking:



"2. He's Redecorating
You may also notice certain items have disappeared from his pad, like his college posters and Star Wars memorabilia. Did he ditch that ugly brown chair for a nice new couch? It could be the start of major changes — your boyfriend is making room in his life for you, both physically and emotionally." He sure does like to make changes in his place and always wants my opinion. Even on buying extra pillows for his couch!

"3. He's Curbing Big Purchases
Has your boyfriend gone from big spender to scrooge? The plasma screen TV he'd been planning to buy isn't hanging over his mantel, and instead of buying rounds of drinks at happy hour after work, he's home cooking dinner. No, he's not training for Top Chef; he's started to eliminate frivolous spending to brace for a large down payment (on your ring). And it's not just the jewelry he's saving for — he may be putting away money now so that the two of you will be comfortable well into the future. I've been commenting on this a lot lately around PS. He doesn't want to spend money on anything!" He says its the economy and has also mentioned that he doesn't want to spend much this Christmas because "How do you expect me to save for a ring, or a house?" Perhaps he is saving a little for a ring then??

"4. He's Not Complaining About Weddings
While at a wedding together, it's more than just the usual eagerness for an open bar. He's not cracking jokes during the vow exchange — he's commenting on the couple's first-dance song choice and the meal selection. Take it as a sign that he's paying attention to all things wedding-related because matrimony is on his mind." We've been to one wedding in the past few years and he had a lot to say about it. Also, we have gone by weddings (while on walks, etc..) where he always has something to say. And they aren't funny/goofy things that he says either.

"7. He's Acting out of Character
You know his daily routine inside and out, and any variation is enough to give you pause. If he's super-insistent that you guys do something you never do (like take a walk through a park or drive to a place to watch the sunset), he may be setting you up to speak those four little words: "Will you marry me?" After all that hard work, be sure to make it easy on him and say "yes!" "OMG! This past summer he drug me all around to places we have never been to before. Parks galore that we have never been to, places in the mountains we haven't seen...it was almost odd to me and sometimes made me wonder about a possible engagment coming. I literally thought our one trip to the mountains would have an engagment. It was completely out of character how he behaved! ha!

Very interesting..........
