Freaking out a little anyone else go through this?

FF and I depart for our RTW trip in a little over 2 weeks and I know he is going to pop the question sometime on this trip - so in less then 9.5 weeks I will be an FI. All along I have felt OMG excited and happy and YAY and now as it comes near to the departure I keep getting really major butterflies. We still have stuff to organise but the majority is done and thanks to my super research skills and Delster''s NY thread (I found cheap accommodation in NY no mean feat) and I have saved a substantial amount over all on the trip.

I know I am a little (okay a lot) stressed about the fact that it is not all organised yet and I am a little bit of a nervous flyer. But all of a sudden I am getting serious butterflies about silly things even about the fact he is going to ask me to marry him, not in a bad way but more of a OMG he is going to ask me to marry him - breathe. He is my best friend and such a wonderful person who I love with all my heart and more, I want to spend the rest of my life with and I/we have both wanted to get married for a long time but all of a sudden I am like OMG soon I am not going to just be his GF anymore and it is a little scary - in a good way but I am so nervous.


The logical part of me feels like that it is the stress of trip and the stuff to be organised makes me feel like the this and I am sure that is all that is but I can''t be the only LIW/former LIW that has felt nervous knowing that the end of GF hood is on the way.

For the record like other ladies have described in the past he has all of a sudden become more touchy feely and all googly, lovey, dovey eyed and very excited about it which is quite funny and cute and he is positively radiant also quite cute.

Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings, it feels so much better to just get it off my chest

I felt the exact same the week before D and I went on our weekend away as I was pretty sure that he might propose that weekend also. There''s not really much that I did about it-after all it is a big deal! Just enjoy the lead up to it-it''s nearly the best part of the whole thing. And have a ball on your holidays! Enjoy it all!

Oh sweetie i know exactly how u feel. Everything you have been waiting for is about to happen, but suddenly your scared and you can''t understand why because this is what you have wanted forever (well thats how i felt anyway). I was almost certain he was going to propose that night and i was so nervous, specially because i had got my hopes up. The only advice i have is try to relax and enjoy your trip. NY im soooo jelous!!!

I''m right there with you. I have about 7 weeks til my engagement trip (I know he''s proposing on our vacation to NY) and I know I''ll be a complete mess the whole time, especially because I''m a huge planner and I won''t know when he''s proposing so EVERYWHERE we go, I''ll be wondering, is this it?

I''m listening to everyones advice, and the most common piece of advice I get, which I''ll pass along to you, is to just breathe and enjoy every single moment with him.

Well I can''t say been there done that as my proposal was a complete and total surprise to me, but I hope you enjoy every minute of your trip, and I hope it fulfills all of your romantic dreams! *heart*

I am guessing your feelings are totally normal. I recently got an updated timeline and now I''m like "whoa, it''s really happening?!?! Like, NOW?!?"

I feel butterflies for sure.

Don''t really have any advice, but just wanted to share my feelings.

Enjoy your AMAZING trip, and make lots of incredible memories!

Thank you so much for posting ladies, it makes me feel better knowing others have felt the same.

Bee I think if I get anymore anticipation I might quite literally burst

, I agree this is such a wonderful time and such a fantastic moment in our lives we have our own little secret but the butterflies are killing me. Thanks for the holiday well wishes I am so looking forward to it when I am not stressing about it. This is our first official holiday together and we made it a biggie.

Supergirl What you wrote is like 110% how I feel you think after 10yrs together you think I wouldn't be so nervous but I really am, I hate to think how I will be when he actually asks, just have to keep telling myself to stay calm. I am so looking forward to NY, shopping, food, diamonds and if we get time a Broadway show and a Yankee's game. it will be a whirlwind tour as most of this trip but it will keep us on our toes.


taovandel That is so exciting

we will graduate to the BWW together

, from what I have seen on the web in my searches there are so many beautiful places in the Big Apple it could really be anywhere, I know you guys will have an amazing time

, can't wait to hear all about it.


LaraOnline I always thought the proposal would be a surprise as well but it didn't work out quite that way not that I am disappointed, either way is good. Thanks for the holiday wishes, I truly hope this is a romantic trip for the both of us and loads of fun and by the end of 7 wks I just hope we don't hate each other LOL, one of my irrational fears.

LeeNY I just saw your update how incredible Nov 1 will be here before you know it

, I can't wait to hear how it happens, and thanks for the support .
