Oh my, number 11! Top ten, I’m coming for you. 

Been waiting a long time. I don’t necessarily feel rushed or upset. More so confused because he bought this ring so long ago! We are doing well and are talking about moving to the states someday and buying a home and possible babies immigration would require marriage so maybe that’s how I’ll swindle a proposal out of him. 😈 I admit that I feel a pang of jealousy as I watch friends get engaged and married but I know we will have our time when it’s right.

I think the biggest barrier is that he is kind of waiting for my finances to improve before we legally bind them together. I have a fairly large amount of student debt (just graduated with my MSc) and he is completely debt free (aside from the mortgage). He is being practical but it is not very romantic. He is doing really well and my career is advancing too! We originally talked about a 2020 wedding but that may be pushed back. Our goal is to move in the next 4-5 years so sometime between now and then.

Well dear bee, I do hope things move along for you . I just noticed that two years ago you were being disappointed and hoping for the best . And now he openly says he’s waiting  for you to have more money before he marries you …….

And you seem OK with a possible 4 or 5 more years …..?

Hey bees,

I have a new waiting list ready, but there are technical issues preventing me from posting it. 🙁 I’ll have to wait for a site admin to give me some support.

butterfliesandbees :  Hey I jusy hopped on to post a list. It would be a blessing if you could take over the list at this point for me. I can’t commit any time to it or this community and that’s not fair to those currently waiting. I’m working 60 hours a week with a partner recovering from surgery and an insane perosnal life still trying to be a mom and balance it all. 

I love this place but I just don’t have the bandwidth to be list keeper. I can post today and then if you want to PM me your email I an email you my list word document.

butterfliesandbees :  or I can open it up for nominations. However she is the only one who’s expressed interest in being list keeper and I think it’s best to pass it on. Either way I will update tonight and email the list to her if she pms me her email and if you choose someone else than her than she can pass it on. But as the outgoing list keeper I’ll always think the person willing to take it on is the best fit for it.
