So FF and I found a ring that we both love, he said he would buy it when he got back, he went out of town for 3 weeks and he got back last weekend, he called the jewler that Tuesday when they opened and said they sent the ring back but would get it in by the end of the week or tomorrow, Tuesday the 7th and that it would take a while to get the diamond set and the ring sized... But... we have this trip to Tahoe planned for this coming up weekend, it was sort of my plan since it''s a 3 day weekend for us and I said we should do something! But... now he keeps saying how excited he is for our weekend, we got this hotel with a spa and fireplace in Tahoe and last night he came up with the idea of taking this dinner/dance cruise on the lake and how he can''t wait to make so many memories on this trip and how it is going to be amazing!! Now I really don''t want to get my hopes up since he is telling me the ring isn''t even ready yet and as far as I know I don''t know when he would have talked to my father (but my mom has been talking about weddings and weddings shows she has watched on TV the last few days..) but I really hope it is going to be this weekend! He has been talking about marriage and proposing since he got back from his trip and how he can''t wait to be able to call me his wife and how this ring process is taking to long to get done! So I am just hoping they were able to get the ring done and he is just trying to trick me. Awww this is driving me crazy, I want it to be a surprise but I can''t wait!! I need to go find a new outfit to wear just in case!! :)
 
Maybe the ring is done but he doesn''t want you to think its "going to happen" this weekend so he is playing it up like the ring isn''t ready yet.....I will keep my fingers crossed for you! Either way, it sounds like its coming VERY soon regardless!

Yes, get a new outfit and a manicure! I''m crossing my finger for you!!

OOOOOH Lots of DUST! What an eventful weekend this is shaping up to be for the LsIW!

Ohhh, lots of dust for you...

Those boys can play it off so cool, mine totally had be duped. Unfortunately, I ruined the surprise a bit of him getting the diamond, but now I know the ring is coming, and he LOVES to tease me about making me wait, punk, lol.

In any event, I am sure your guy is just trying to play it cool and that he you will give you your little "surprise" this weekend. Good luck

Yeah, I know what you mean by them trying to play it cool, he just sent me a text saying how he can''t wait to make so many memories this weekend, he keeps talking about "memories" and he has never really said that about any of our fun weekends together . Then he started talking about proposing and how it''s going to happen in a couple of months and that he can''t wait! I said that he was driving me crazy with the waiting game and asked why so long? And he said now that it''s because that is how long the ring is going to take to be done... when last week he said it would take 2-3 weeks! And he said that we have waited this long to find each other what''s a couple of months?? He is acting so calm about it now, when about a month ago he couldn''t wait to get engaged and didn''t want to wait a couple of months until winter (he had this plan about how he was going to propose in the snow cause that was our first date, snowboarding) but he told me all about it cause he knew he couldn''t wait that long! He is trying to be sly but hopefully I have figured him out and it''s going to be this weekend.. either way I have a nail appt Tuesday to get my nails filled and I am going to go buy a new outfit for our sunset dinner/dance cruise!!!
 
Set aside your expectations and concentrate on having a wonderful time this weekend. Even if the proposal does not come you are lucky to have a man who is this excited about taking a trip with you! If the proposal does come, all the more exciting.
 
I am focusing on how amazing this weekend is with or without a proposal! He is a wonderful man and I am a very lucky woman to have found him!

A little update though.. he just told me that he may have to work late tomorrow on some special project at work.. he has never known in advance that he has had to work late.. I think he might be planning on going to my parents tomorrow to talk to them before this weekend! He was talking about wanting to talk to them last week but they were out of town... Hmmm things just keep getting more interesting! :) And he told me to go shopping to find a nice outfit for our dinner cruise...
 
well, i hope you enjoy your weekend regardless the outcome!
 
So the story keeps getting better... my mom called me yesterday afternoon and started telling me that my brother who has been dating his girlfriend for almost 7 years wants to propose at the end of November.. and how he wants help finding a ring. Then she asked what I was doing this weekend and I told her that FF and I were going to Tahoe for the weekend then she got nervous and started asking all kinds of questions. Well I got home and was telling FF about my brother and what my mom said, after he told me the whole story of how he has to work late tomorrow and why so I just said ok and for him to call me when he was done so I would know what to cook for dinner. (all the while I knew what he was up to) Then about 5 minutes later he confessed saying he couldn''t lie to me (which I really wish he would have) but that he called my dad that same afternoon and asked if he could meet with him to talk about his daughter and our future and of course he said yes so FF and my parents are meeting tonight. So can you imagine what my parents are thinking right now, their two kids are probably going to get engaged within a month of each other!! But he made a point to say for me not to get my hopes up because the proposal won''t happen this weekend cause the ring is going to take a couple months to finish. But then I found out that he doesn''t even have Monday off as a holiday which he told me and that is why I wanted to do something since we had Monday off, well now he said he had to take it off as a vacation day... I am really getting excited!!

Ugh! How frustrating lol (but in a good way of course!). It's like you want to think it's going to happen because it's so exciting and you can't wait to be engaged to your man, but you don't want to think it's going to happen because you don't want to be disappointed either. But, you know your FF better than anyone and if you are reading the signs and they all point to yes, then I bet it's going to happen!!! How exciting! Your weekend sounds like it's going to be awesome! I have never been to Tahoe and that would be soo much fun. The dinner cruise sounds awesome and very romantic

the perfect time. Regardless of a proposal, take lots of pictures and post! I would love to see the lake and everything! But, I really hope there is a proposal on the horizon for you! You must keep us posted!!

Sending lots of PS dust!
 
The weekend isn''t coming fast enough!! My FF went to my parents last night and ask for their blessing and it went really well, they love him and are sooo excited! Just a little stressed since they found out the same day that my brother is proposing to his gf next month!! :) But FF still insists the ring won''t be done for a couple of months, but his story keeps changing on why, first it was 2-3 weeks, then it was 2-3 months because that was how long it takes, now they weren''t able to get the setting in because he didn''t order it soon enough so now they have to start from the beginning and order it from Natalie K.. My FF is not a good liar, but I am just going along with it and making him think I believe him! I can''t wait until Saturday!!!

Ok well these guys have been tricky in the past... a couple of girls recently had their BFs even go as far as having the jeweler send a fake email saying it wasnt ready... and it was.. a diamond should not tkae 2-3 weeks but 2-3 days to set.. atleast Im pretty sure... mine only took a couple days when I had one set...

BUT goodluck and I really hope he is trying to trick you :-) Lots of dust for you!!
