JANUARY???
Why is he torturing me like this? He must be trying to throw me off, he has to be! He told me the end of the year, as I told him there are certain folks I'm not saying anything to until we're official. Nevermind the family that I will need to rally together to assign tasks to. (believe me, I have florist, seamstresses, bakers, and decorators in my family) But I refuse to pipe up and ask them for help without an official engagement. Coupla reasons: One of my cousins just got engaged and her date is one month later than the date that FFI and I chose. Now, because she is in the US and I am in Canada, that doesn't leave alot of flexibility for the fam to make the trek up north as I know they would had they had more time
I don't think it would be fair to be comin at the fam with, "well by the way aunty so and so, actually FFI and I already have a date and its before cousins", when he hasn't properly proposed yet! (my family is big on traditional and are sweating us all the time just for living together unmarried) I just don't wanna come across like I'm trying to upstage my cousin any more than it might already appear since our date was picked and venue held since before she was even engaged...
Granted, FFI already knows I need more time to plan a wedding and our date is for the end of May
Why oh WHY is he being so mean?
And another thing, he says he would prefer if I didn't go telling my huge family until he put the ring on my finger... He says that it means alot to him to actually have a ring on my finger before announcing anything, and I really do wanna respect that. Just like I don't want to take away his surprise by letting him do it on his own timing....
But what's a LIW to do?
Ladies, talk me down.. I'm about to lose it!
