So, I know that SO has secretly bought a ring. He has been dropping hints lately about my birthday (which is in January), saying he want to make it really special and he has my present already and its going to blow my mind. So I figure that thats when he’s going to do it. But seriously, making me wait another 2 months is going to drive me crazy! Knowing the he has the ring and it could even be in the house but I can’t have it yet! Aghhhhhhh. I know two months shouldnt seem like very long but Im not a very patient person, and my idea of soon was like yesterday haha. Grrrrr. That is my rant for the day! Sorry you ladies are getting it but if I was to say it to SO he would think I’m nuts LOL

@dreamingofbling: Ha ha, don’t know what to say but at least you do know he has the ring right? Waiting is a killer but ehn, give the guy a couple more months, it’ll be January before you know it. I hope he gives you in January but he may surprise you and give you for Xmas 🙂

@dreamingofbling: break the days down. 2 months can turn into 60 days or 8 weeks. That way you can mark them off and see the time getting closer and closer!

@dreamingofbling I think you should try and wait it out until he proposes. He is obviously trying to make it as special as can be. The time will fly by. Just make sure you don’t go snooping around the house for the ring because he wants to see the look on your face the FIRST time you see it.

Maybe once he gets it, it will kill him holding onto it and he will want to give it to me right away? Wishful thinking much LOL

I found out after my Fiance proposed that he had the ring for 6 WEEKS! 6 WEEKS!!! I told him he’s lucky I didn’t know he already had it or I would’ve killed him. Patience is NOT a virtue I possess.
I suggest thinking of it in weekly increments. 8 weeks seems a lot shorter than 60 whole days. Each Monday thnk “only 7 more!” “only 6 more!” ect, ect. It helps.

I agree break it up in weekly increments and do something new and exciting each week ( try out new recipes, make a girls date, spa, and of course save a trip to the manicurist for the last week in preparation for something sparkly!)

@dreamingofbling: Darling Husband waited for 3 months until he proposed. He told me the day he bought the ring that he had gotten it and couldn’t wait to give it to me because he wanted to tell me all about his shopping experience…3 months later he finally proposed!
Try to break the weeks up and let him propose on his own time. Chances are he already has something planned and that is why he is waiting! Good luck. The time will come before you know it!!

Maybe he wants to be sneaky and make you THINK he won’t propose until January. This way you won’t question him too much and accidently find out his surprise!

@pansyshell:
3 months??? Did he tell you why he waited 3 months? Do any of the men ever confess why they wait after they have the ring (if the woman knows or not)? I WANT TO KNOW!!!
