Weddingbee boards

My name is Amanda & my man is Andy...  we are currently living together .... we are somewhat in the waiting phase... we have discussed marriage and even started planning. He already has the ring and says all the time that he cant wait to marry me even told his family and has discussed wedding plans with his mother.  He even stated that he wanted to get married this summer & wants to plan it all ... but says due to his job we wont be able to officially set a date until after the first of the year. I still havent figured out why we are not engaged yet??? I dunno perhaps he is just waiting on the right time?

Anyways I am glad to be here and I hope to get to know alll of you guys better & I hope to get tons of ideas for my we

WELCOME!

You are going to love all the bees here. Everyone always gives great advice and support.

Perhaps your BF is waiting until the first of the year to propose.

Anyway, hope you get that sparkler soon.

I dunno but i know it is driving me crazy knowing he has had the ring for weeks now ... in this house somewhere and I cant have it or even see it yet lol.

Welcome! Maybe he just said that to throw you off and is planning to do it any day now!

Do you know what the ring looks like?

Well I am not certain if it is the exact one i picked out because I know it was a custom made ring.. I will look around online and see if i can find a picture of a similar one i picked out...

It was actually a trio set with the E ring and a diamond band on each side

He wants to go ahead and plan so we can do it this summer...but it just feels wierd to be secretly planning our wedding before we are even engaged. We buy things all the time for our wedding... I even have a dress... and he jokes all the time that I havent even been asked yet and I say I know you should really get on that.

Im not sure what he is waiting for at this point... but i would love to have that ring on my finger so i can officially tell everyone we are engaged and planning our wedding.. without them thinking I am crazy bc he hasnt even asked yet

This is almost identical to what I picked out 3 bands and all .... I am not sure if it is what I am getting... like i said I know he had it custom made and I know whatever ring he got that he upgraded with the jewler the diamond in the middle for a nicer one.  And I know that the ring I am getting is a 3 ring set bc he said he didnt know how he was gonna give me all 3 rings LOL .... It is horrible to know so much about it and not know when it is coming or what it looks like for certain

Oh im not rushing it at all I just feel anxious i guess ... I feel like he rushes it more than me lol wanting to plan our wedding and honeymoon without even asking first......to me it is just wierd to plan all the things we have before being asked but I am certain he is going to ask ... anytime it is comes up all he tells me is that he has got some ideas.

Thank you all for your kind words ... hehe i love that ring too i really hope my E-ring is similar :)

Am i just being a B!!!! by getting frustrated at this whole backwards ordeal??

I feel so stupid!!!! Andy wants to, set a date, expects me to  plan a wedding, he even put a deposit on our "Honeymoon"  but yet wait ..... WTF I still have no ring?????

I know he even bought a ring for me....told me that he showed it his mom and my mom.

So naturally what do i think?? Oh I think I a getting a Ring for christmas  Wrong!!!!! I got A new puppy ,  VS stuff and a snuggie! (which i do like but) Then he has the nerve to tell me .... I have two presents that i cant have yet???? WTF Why even tel me that...

I am just to the point of telling him that until he puts a ring on it that I am not going to even worry about a wedding

Its just frustrating.... I want to tell ppl i am planning but it just seems crazy to do until he actually asks me and I have a ring..... People ask us all the time if we are getting married and he says yes.... I simply hold up my hand and say.... I dunno i dont have a ring sooo..... He always just laughs

Yeah I am over in northeast TN right up near VA line.... Near Bristol.... Im right outside of Kingsport

So ..... No  official engagment yet but I feel so guilty... we just got a new huge gun safe for my mans gun fascination... and when i was putting some stuff on my very own shelf i noticed a ring box in the safe.... I went 2 days not looking then i just had to look! MY RING IS SOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL.... it makes me so sad though because now will i not only not be suprised by the look of it.... i am more sad that he hasnt popped the question yet
