This is my first post on here even though i've been creeping for a while now. Here's my story for the most part: my SO & I have been together for over 5 years & I love him with all my heart but...he's driving me crazy right now. Back in April we went ring shopping...his idea...and we ended up getting a ring custom designed...YAY! Now comes the part that's making me crazy...he's been holding onto it ever since! I don't know what to do! I've almost gotten to the point that I just wanna tell him to just give it to me so I can wear the darn thing already! Help!!!!

@Mandy-Moore12-13-14:  Okay well what you know to be true about the situation is your man purchased the ring so he will follow through at some point (most men don't spend a large sum of money on a custom ring if they dont fully plan on proposing to a girl), so you can rest assured that its coming. The fact that its a custom ring means that there is an investment in time to design & make the ring. Did the jeweler give you an idea of how much time it would take?

If the ring took 6-8 weeks turnaround time or longer that only left your man >4 months to plan a perfect proposal. Also, he could be waiting for a specific time of year (maybe the holidays when your family will all be together?). I think the best thing you can do right now is try to keep your mind off it by preparing yourself for being engaged. Focus on working out, keeping your nails & hair up, and be HAPPY! This is an exciting time for you and your SO, make the most of it! 

Thanks ladies! I'm just losing my mind...he's known for being a procrastinator so the longer it takes the crazier I feel lol. I know he's had it since the middle of April & I know where he keeps it "hidden". He lives 3 hours away so I only see him 2 days out of the week. He keeps "it" with him wherever he goes...either in his car, apartment or his luggage. Which makes it very difficult for me when he comes home & his luggage is sitting in the corner of the bedroom. At least I don't have too much longer to wait...I'm just very impatient lol. Again...thanks for the encouraging words!

@Mandy-Moore12-13-14:  That would be super hard for me too, especially considering you've known he's had it for over 6 months. I don't quite understand why it takes some men so long to get it together, its kinda pathetic if you ask me. If the situation was reversed I couldn't bring myself to wait so long, I would lose my mind!!

Im a guy...I understand how hard it is to be in waiting especially if you know he already has it. But sometimes there are good reasons why we are having you wait. I recently found an e-ring that my gf would like and put it on free 6mo layaway at the jeweler for financial reasons, because I didnt want this model to be sold out, and also because I want to pop the question on our 5yr anniversarry in April. The timing works out great for the layayway and for other reasons. My gf doesnt know that i bought the ring so she isnt "waiting" like you are but I just wanted to say that sometimes we have our reasons and we are not doing it just to torcher you but to make things better for both of us :)
