Do you think that our men are enjoying torturing us?

I feel like my bf is enjoying watching me go nuts trying to figure out when he is proposing. He told me that he would propose by Christmas, and I think he keeps doing little things to through me off.

We have already gone ring shopping at various places. Even after ring shopping, I would still look for ring ideas online and he would listen. Now he kinda gets mad when I say that I saw a ring that I liked that is a good deal, and then I said no it wasn't what I thought. Then he seemed relieved after that. Sometimes I can hear him laughing on the phone when I talk about his proposal  and the dreams that I have about it. He told me that it is funny for him to watch me like this. Plus, I think that he has our parents in on it.

But he acts normal about any other wedding details. And he keeps saying that he can't wait until we are married.

I wish there was something that I could do to get him back so that I can laugh because right now it is not funny.

I am not waiting anymore - but FI still enjoys laughing at me in regards to the waiting period - he did and said so many conflicting things just to bug me and it sure did!!!!!

He really enjoyed having all the control over the proposal and how it drove me crazy!

Yeah, this is the only thing that he really has complete control over and I think he loves it.

He's enjoying the control. I'm doing my best not to take it away from him and ask him myself.

I KNOW they are enjoying torturing us! I know my ring is in my house and it is making me crazy! My BF says by thanksgiving and asked tonight how far away thanksgiving was tonight. He is trying to trip me up.... I'm very skeptical now...

I know my FI absolutely LOVED to torture me before he proposed. He used to tell me it was going to be 45 years before he did, that way he didn't ever have to worry about me getting pregnant (he was kidding, of course - we both want kids). Then he'd say that he was just kidding, it'd probably only be 3 or 4 years. He told me that up until the day he proposed, haha.
