Hi all.
I just wanted to add a male perspective to the waiting game. I, too, cannot wait til the day I get to ask the girl of my dreams made real to be my wife forever. And ever.
I can''t think about her and not smile, and the work going into learning about diamonds and the C''s (and good grief, there is a LOT of stuff beyond the C''s I''m supposed to be learning, too!) is more than worth the payoff of having an end product that creates that fabulous smile on her face.
So yeah, I am very much a guy in waiting. It''s hard, saving up the money, keeping the secrets, making decisions about the ring while keeping her likes and dislikes in mind. We''re coming up on our one year anniversary (she does monthly anniversaries. I''ve never dated a woman who''s done that, but she just gets so happy to celebrate every little thing with me. It''s endearing.), and I have been thinking about asking her on that day, April 17. We''ll see.
Are any of you "ladies in waiting" living apart from your guy? My girl and I don''t live together, and we have both decided that we want to stay that way until we are married. I cannot wait to wake up next to her every day, though. There have been times when we''ve fallen asleep watching a movie or whatnot, and I''ve never slept so well in my life. I am at peace with her, and it amazes me.
I can''t think of a better gift God could have bestowed upon me. I can''t wait until we are bound together as one. We''re both a bit old fashioned, and we talk all the time about life together. I want it so badly to be RIGHT now.
I know a lot of you are thinking, "hey, you''re in control of that, though." Yeah, I am, but I''m planning and saving and praying and doing all the things that it takes for the prep work. So, girls, just know that when a man is finally "gotten" by his love, he''ll climb mountains and even research diamonds and hang out in "girly" forums for his girl.
Here''s hoping the love you feel for your man today lasts a lifetime... True love never has to die. I am convinced. I get to marry my best friend! What a blessing!
