Good for you! I don't know if I could resist snooping, but I'm sure you'll be so glad you did :)
Man woman, you must have nerves of steel. I would have been all over that computer like white on rice. lol. But it's good that you aren't spoiling the surprise for yourself. Good luck! Post a pic of the ring when you get it so we can "oooo" over it. =)
I would have peeked, LOL I'm too nosy to resist the temptation. Good for you!! How exciting
Well done on your self-control!! I don't think I'd have been able to resist!

Seriously good for you - I wouldn't have been able to help myself lol but then my SO knows that about me - he guessed when we first got together that the first thing I did was check out his ex on Bebo :-S I had to know it was over - they'd broken up before and got back together and he was planning to propose to ehr so it wasn't exactly a meaningless relationship by any means - kinda wish I hadn't looked - she's really pretty *groan* lol
Like PPs said you have amazing self control! Something like that happened to me and I definitely didn't resist the urge to look. I now wish I would have though because I think being totally surprised makes the engagement so much better! Good luck and can't wait to hear about your proposal when it comes :)
Thanks for the encouragement ladies! I'm hoping it makes for a better surprise, since there are a limited number of times we see eachother when he could actually propose.
I'm so blunt I'd have said "what was that "ring" thing?"..... It's happened before lol. I caught him putting a ring on his watch list online... Bravo to you for having self control!!
Good work! I think you will thank yourself later for not spoiling the surprise. I had the option of doing the same last week and I have stayed strong so far! I will not look!! I've got my fingers crossed for you!!
@shirasagi: Thanks, I hope both of our surprises benefit as a result! Fingers crossed for you too!
yes! good job!
I'm having trouble right now because I have big suspicions that SO is going to ask me this weekend, but BFF told me that she didn't want me to be disappointed so she said that SO asked her for ring details (my likes/sizing/etc) yesterday. She's sneaky and I can generally tell when she's trying to trick me, but this one could go either way! (I also know that she and SO talked before the holidays-- SO's brother let that one slip after too many drinks at New Years!-- and she had previously told me he hadn't contacted her yet.)
Long story short, I'm being super good and not snooping to see if she really did send info to his email!
I think your boyfriend should read this post! He should be very proud of having a very trustworthy wife-to-be! Very important in a relationship!
P.S. I had to google SO because I didn't know what that was... HeeHee.

The other night my SO and I were watching a show on his computer, when an email with the subject "Re:Ring" comes up from the jewelry designer he's working with! He hid the message very quickly, and I pretended not to notice =). And, I avoided his computer like the plague for the rest of his visit so I would be sure not to snoop!
We're in a LDR so I had been thinking winter break would have been a nice time to propose since we got an awesome 3 weeks together, but I'm guessing it wasn't finished yet. He had a friend get engaged while he was here, and in his excitement for them he also told me he was excited for us too. I said we can't be excited quite yet, and his response was "soon." He's never used that phrase before, so here's hoping for next month's visit!
