I hope some ladies have stories to tell and sparklies to show off!
I have the opposite of a proposal story from yesterday ( well not a break up! )
Earlier in the year my boyfriend and I had planned to go away to the US for a few weeks over Christmas and new year. We would have spent Christmas in new York. When I first joined LIW I mentioned I thought proposal may happen there. As it turned out we couldn't go away for financial reasons, my boyfriend hasn't had much luck with work this year so we weren't able to save enough to go. Added to that I started a new job in september so couldn't really ask to take minimum four weeks off a couple of months after starting! So we decided to delay the trip till later on, which is fine with me.
Anyway christmas morning we were driving to my parents place and that Jay-z & Alicia Keys 'New York' song was on, and I said 'oh we were meant to be in new york today' in a joking (very lighthearted) sort of way. My boyfriend got really upset for some reason, I was saying to him 'it doesnt matter, we'll go later in the year, it's not a big deal at all!' and then he tells me he is upset because he had planned, and told a lot of people, that he was going to ask me to marry him on Christmas day in new York. And he felt bad he couldn't do it due to the financial issues.
I didnt really know what to say about that so just repeated that we will go later in the year.
But Waaaaahhhhh!! It would have been so amazing!!! I'm so sad now it didn't work out
