Hello!

Since the New Year and Christmas have now passed who is still a lady in waiting (without a ring)? I suppose there is still Valentines day left as a pretty big holiday to propose, is anyone expecting (or hoping for) a proposal then? I am new on here so if there is anyone on here close to my age (I am 22) I would love to chat, maybe share some frustrations with being in our 20''s and waiting for a ring. I posted my whole story on another thread but I will paste it below if anyone wants to know a bit about my backround, and maybe you could tell me a bit about yours too!! I would love to talk to the rest of you gals on here as well no matter your age!

Hope everyone is doing very well!

a bit of history:

Hello everyone! I was just searching the web browsing around trying to find anyone else in my situation, and that is when I found you ladies! All of you are waiting for an engagment ring just like I am, so while I am in waiting I thought I would be able to talk to all of you on here! A little bit about myself, well, I am 22 years old, and currently I am living with my boyfriend in his house. My boyfriend is 26 years old and we have been dating now for a little over 2 and a half years. He has always been, well, very careful when it comes to making relationship decisions like moving to that next step. I have been living here only for about 4 months or so. His parents are both still married, and my parents just recently got a divorce. But both parents are basically fine with us living together before marriage/ engagment (although my mom really wants me to put a fire under his butt to propose already haha). I recently had to go thru his younger brother (who is my age) get engaged to his gf of 2-3 years, although I was very happy for them both I was also sad left wondering, "but where''s MY ring". Very recently (as in just 2 weeks now) things have really started looking up! My bf has recently promised me that we will be married, that he wants to be my "Mr. Forever", he even bought a new car saying that he would not have gotten this certain model (a two seater) unless we were going to be together always. SO yeah...in a nutshell that is my story. He has dropped some hints as to the time span he was thinking before a proposal, he said when I mentioned spring as one of my fav seasons that march or april sounded good, but he is still being pretty vauge. When I mentioned just going and eloping he said just please let me propose to you. So I hope that all of these new things that have happened mean that there is a ring in my future! Right now i am LOVEing the hearts on fire diamonds, of all the diamonds in the store those really caught my eye! Oh and me and my bf and my mom went to look at rings for the first time around the 12th of December of 09.

Thanks for sharing your story, and I hope your stay on the list is short and sweet!
 
Yes, vc10um I do hope my stay is very very short on here as the timeline is march/ april-ish but since the SO and I had a fight last night about being engaged and moving forward I am not sure if that current timeline will still stand. Sure sucks, I am going thru alot right now in my life and as I am sure that some of you know that moods fluctuate and sometimes things that are already sensitive topics (when we will be getting engaged) tend to come up then and create spats. But I dont like the feeling after a spat about getting engaged not sure if any of you have felt it but it is that feeling of sadness like argh, I bet this will set my engagment date back who knows how long! Whether or not it does I am just always left with that feeling..ah well I still hope my stay is short!

4ever: my SO and I actually met in a funny way..at the time I was supposedly dating another guy (even though he had moved to Australia months before and hadn''t talked to me for over 4 months) we hadn''t "technically" broken up yet but to me it was as we already had. Anyways, my ex''s friend invited me to her birthday party (I had met her once before while my ex was still in the USA) so I decided since I hadn''t been out for some fun in awhile why not go. So I got all dressed up (in hindsight probably too dressed up haha) and as I was about to pull up to park I was SOO close to deciding to just not go in and just go back home cause I was nervous she would ask for specifics about how things were going with my ex and I and I just didn''t feel like explaining. Then all of a sudden it was as if something just told me that no matter what I needed to go into this party. So I parked and went in, I met my SO and I was immidiatly smitten :) After we were done he walked me to my car and that was that! We hung out a bunch before we went official and started dating exclusivly :) Funny story our first kiss was in a business park parking lot, I had pulled off the road cause I wanted to say goodnight to him (he was having me follow him so I would be able to find my way from his parents house to the freeway safely) so we both pulled into the nearby business park, and I leaned in and he went the rest of the way :) Wow just telling the story of how we met sure puts things in perspective, we have sure been thru alot together, crazy how time flies!
 
Welcome kberrie and hope your stay is short and sweet! Enjoy looking at the rings!
 
Welcome to LIW and PS! May your stay be short and sweet!
 
Welcome! I am one of the ladies here in my early 20''s so I''m sure we have a lot in common. My BF and I have also been together a little more than 2 1/2 years. I was also looking for a Spring/Summer engagement as well, but financial setbacks have pushed that timeline. As long as you''re both committed though, that''s what really matters. Hope your stay is short!
