My man and I have known each other for 3 years, and been seeing each other for almost a year and half.We knew we were going to get married almost after we decided to date.He promised we were getting engaged at our 1 year, we didn’t.He bought the ring, as I saw the box come in from our local jewelers, but he’s not mentioned it.Also, his friend slipped up and said it’s coming soon, so I know it is.

I will sound shallow, I know, but I know he’s not romantic at all.He’s just not.He’s also quiet and gets nervous in public doing any speeches and stuff, so I am a little worried his proposal will be this sad little thing.I know I know, it’s important that he ask and I am lucky, because I have a feeling the ring is very gorgeous, but I ALWAYS dreamed of a stunning proposal.I dated a guy before him who swore when he proposed he would propose to me on top of a cruise ship headed to the Mediterranean.I broke it off with him, but I miss those wildly romantic ideas he used to have…He used to give me presents and surprises all the time, and my guy (although I LOVE him and KNOW he’s the one) doesn’t.He’s so practical, he suggest he buys me plants instead of giving me flowers…WHY is he like this?!

I explained how I really wanted to get little trinkets from him, but he never does, and he can afford it, now that he got a new job (making almost twice what he used to) I am not asking for diamond necklaces, but even little silver or gold things?Or even dressing up and going out for a nice night on the town (we live near DC).We don’t do much, and I am afraid he will get worse with time; he will be ignorant of my need to have romance and excitement (I am only 24!).Again, I love him, but how do you light that little fire under a guy after you have complained so many times and don’t think he even understands what to do!!???
