Well Christmas came and went....

[KissyKissy]

and NO proposal! I was kind of hoping he wouldn''t be that obvious and do it this weekend, BUT, after realizing how bummed I was that it DIDN''T happen, I guess in the end I really don''t care when just so long as it happens eventually!! Knowing my s.o. though he''ll do it on some random Tuesday over lunch or something, that''s just the way he is. Stinker.

I hope we get to read some Christmas proposal stories of those that are luckier than me!!

Hugs!

NYE weekend is just a few days away. I''ll be crossing my fingers for you.

I feel your pain, Kissy Kissy. ((Hugs))

I thought for sure mine would come when we were visiting my family in Reno for Christmas. A few days before we left though, my SO told me he wouldn''t be proposing over Christmas. However, he''s running out of time as we have to be married by March, so it should be any day now.

Just keep your nails nice and the camera batteries charged.

christmas came and went for me to, and no proposal....Im getting frustrated bc everytime I see an "opportunity" (as I see them) nothing happens. Every night, I"m like OOOOOH, maybe tonight. Tonight he went to hockey with a busted hand just to watch, and then tomorrow he asked if I wanted to hang with him and a friend and I thought maybe it'd be tomorrow since he has the day off, and I'm on vaca as well....I mean c'mon...when is he going to do it??? I hate waiting, and I'm getting frustrated b/c he had the stone (from my parents) all he has to do is set it. If I really want to get frustrated I think to myself there's a good chance he hasnt even done that yet. Then I get depressed b/c there's such a good chance that he's not even thinking about it, and really doesnt care about it.

Last night I was feeling kind of down about the whole situation and my b.f. said "What''s wrong. Spill the beans. Say what''s on your mind." He opened up a perfect opportunity for me to talk about my frustration and I just froze. I couldn''t tell him how much I was looking forward to him proposing and if he had anything in mind anytime soon so I could quit worrying about it! I''m such a big fat chicken. Usually I have NO problems speaking my mind.... Argh. I hope he gets the ball rolling soon, I''m going NUTS!!!

With the New Year just around the corner, it is a good time to casually ask what his plans are for the future....both career and on the personal front too.

It''s a good way of finding out what is rolling around in his head....and perhaps for you both to discuss your future together. It might just get you both ''singing off the same hymm sheet''

Give it a go...and good luck

NYE is a great opportunity for a conversation about the future. NYE last year was the first time my FI and I went to look at rings together.

Most likely the man of your dreams is going to pop the question when you least expect...there is a lot of pressure on men in general for the proposal to be a surprise and sweep their lady off her feet.

I totally understand what y''all are going through...there were days when I just couldn''t stand it anymore, but in the end it was definitely worth the wait.

Kissy,

Chin up! It''s going to happen, just try and be patient. And next time your boy asks you what is wrong, don''t be afraid to tell him how you feel. He might give you some insight on when it''s going to happen!

I love the "Pricescope Cheerleaders!" Everyone has been SO nice! My head is in a good place now and I''m not "down" like I was. I try to tell myself that for now I should just be grateful that I''m in the situation to be worrying about a proposal! I could be single and even more down in the dumps, but I''m so lucky to be incredibly in love and happy.

I LOVE BEING IN LOVE

I am SO with you! My BF and I spent our first Christmas together this year. When he first told me he wanted to spend Chrsitmas with my family, my hopes went up. Then he asked that we do our own Christmas, just the two of us, the night before we left. I was sure it was going to happen then...but it didn''t. And it didn''t happen Christmas morning either. And based on some other comments that he has made in the past few days, I feel like he hasn''t prepared anything yet! It has been really hard to keep myself from feeling down. I should have known better than to expect it, but once I got my hopes up, it was hard to let go of the idea!

I am glad that you are feeling better, now, though! And you have reminded me that I also have much to be grateful for!

Kissy...its always nice to have PS to vent to get all of your emotions out, I know it sometimes hard to discuss with your friends or BF, but what I love most about this forum is how supportive and honest we are with each other.

blah christmas came and went... new years came and went..

i give up

 

[amyg]

Yep Christmas and NY came and went for me as well...and I feel blah too...my bf and I have takled about marriage and we definitely know it''s going to happen...but I have no idea what his time frame is...I thought he at least had one...but he made a comment the other day that made me think he didn''t really have a time frame in mind...very disappointing...I at least wanted him to be thinking about it and planning it...men...

 

[KissyKissy]

New Year''s came and went as well. If Valentine''s Day comes and goes then we''re going to have to have a serious talk...if I don''t chicken out first!!

 

[snuga]

Sorry to hear about Christmas and NY coming and going sans proposal... I''m sure the wait will be worth it once it happens!!!
