    For like a week now EVERYNIGHT I have dreamt about Jason and I getting married or getting engaged...  Last night I had a dream about getting a wedding dress (which I loved in my dream, but it was some crazy concoction of red white and blue glitter and satin?! don't ask, I don't get it either), the night before last it was about him waking up and walking into the living room, seeing me looking at a wedding magazine and saying "lets go buy you a ring today".

    He's not even close to proposing but I can't get it out of my head!!!  And it's driving me nuts!

    Anyother girls in waiting being driven MAD by their subconsious?

    haha sort of.

    i have this thing where everytime i can't get ahold of my bf i assume he's talking to my parents about proposing :P

    and he's stopped giving me surprises because every one of them lately has been him proposing in my mind.

    and i have the same thing - i know it's not happening anytime soon, so i don't get why i keep expecting it.

     

    but hm. red right and blue? maybe that's a sign that you'll get a proposal under the fireworks on july 4th? haha who knows?

    Totally and completely the same here.. I have dreamt about him proposing and getting married. Since we know we want to get married next year.. I actually have been dress shopping a bit and found one Im in love with. Unfortunately Mr. Tee was layed off on Friday so I know that we are going to have to postpone things a bit, and yes its driving me insane waiting.. but I am just trying to keep in my mind I get to spend the rest of my life with this man so eventhough now It is SOOOOOOO hard to wait.. it will be worth it.

    Haha you are in good company!! I have dreams about boyfriend proposing pretty frequently and we are deff nowhere close to a proposal -- so these dreams are not helpin' me out!! The dream about your red and blue glitter dress literally made me LOL .... I would suggest not making THAT dream come true!! ;-)

    I am literally going through the same thing... only my BF is toturing me (his name is Jason too!).  He already has the ring and i know where it is and everything... he just won't give it to me!  LOL  We have a date and I really really want to start planning and I can't until we're engaged.  It's driving me mad!  I have crazy wedding dreams and catch myself at work on wedding sites and grrr...

    haha I'm glad I'm not alone...  It's just driving me insane, and then when I wake up and I know he's not going to propose I get sad ALL OVER AGAIN.  ugh.

    @cea:  maybe that is a sign... but I think it's because I fell asleep to Toddler & Tiara's the other night and they kept talking about a red white & blue category where all the little girls were wearing red white and blue sparkly things lol

    Well, I had another one last night, although this one was a bit sad...  He gave me a ring, a big round solitaire (not my style) and didn't even really propose just kind of gave it to me, and I liked it in my dream, until... I realized it was his ex wife's (not irl) and it was really cheap looking with a HUGE imperfection (I'm talking most of the diamond) which looked like a red piece of fabric in the middle of the ring!  And I was devistated (sp?)!

    Now don't get me wrong, I'm not all "I need a perfect ring" irl... but just how it affected me in my dream really bothered me.  And I would be DEVASTATED if he gave me his EX WIFE'S RING! (which he would never do, but still!)

    ugh.  Dreams are messed up!

    Yes, I also had a dream where FI just shoved a ring at me with no pomp or circumstance. I also obsessed over weddings and engagements the entire time we dated which was only 1.5 years before we got engaged. I definitely did it to myself though, it's not like everyone around me was getting engaged/married.

    It's hard, but try to focus on something else. Like what you're going to wear to the next fun event you attend..

    I went engagement/wedding crazy about 4 months ago and it was seriously all I could think or talk about. But for some reason for the last month or so I haven't been so intoxicated with engagement/wedding talk. I think that I told myself that it will happen when it happens and there is no rush. I had some health problems pop up last month and BF and I are much more concerned about getting me better and taken care of now. BF is also moving into a new apartment this weekend so we have been shopping for furniture and such lately.

    However,......I am going to the Running of the Brides next month with my cousin to help her find a dress and I'm finding it hard to fight the urge to look for my dress...yeah I already have an idea of the one I want so we'll see if I can resist.

    @Pec.. I may not go with the crowd here on weddingbee.. but honestly if your going to the running of the brides and you find a dress your in love with.. Why not get it? If you love it and the price is right why not?!? If when you get engaged, you decide you dont like it anymore.. there are so many outlets (WB, ebay, etc..) that you can sell it on.

    @TheRen: I will most likely look for "the Dress" but I don't know how my cousin and her mom,my aunt, and friends will feel about me getting a dress too... I think its a good idea because I can save a fortune plus my tax return just came in and it's just screaming "Spend me on your dream dress!" Do you think I would be out of line looking for my dress as well as hers?

    I had a dream last night that my BF got me a plastic ring with the tiniest little diamond on it, but the funny thing is, I had picked out the ring and in my dream I remember thinking...."hmmm...why did I think this looked good before" 

    lol!

    I am driving myself nuts! :)

    @HoneyBear, weird! I also had a dream last night that he proposed to me during a movie and it was a plastic ring out of the quarter machine with a huge blue gem on it (about 4 carats huge!) I remember him saying, "this is just for now". Hahaha

    I had a beautiful long talk with FMIL today about all things wedding so that helped get some of it outta me. We spent 5 hours around her dining room table!

    It's been really wierd for the past two weeks. I keep having dreams that my SO proposes to me but in different ways. the latest one is that we're out somewhere and I run into my parents. Mind you, my parents live in Tampa,FL  and are retired and I'm down in Miami. Then they say hi and my SO and I walk to a picnic table.

    Then he asks me, "do you love me." and I say,, more than you could ever imagine... then he says "well now you'll love me even more.." pulls out a tiny rosewood box and says, since we were 13, i've always loved you, now ten years later, i tell you this again and ask you to be eternally mine... " i started crying and saw the ring that i always dreamed of.

    The part that has my knees shakng over this is that he is this hopeless romantic and I could really see him doing this... He's been looking at the ring and he's been asking how to order and talking to his friend... maybe soon?!?!

    @Pec1216.. Im not engaged technically (we have a date in mind and everything) and I bought my dress this past weekend at a trunk show. Even my mom said no matter when you get married you can always wear it. I personally feel if you KNOW your going to marry this man, then why the heck not?
