LaurenThePartier Ideal Rock Total Posts: 8,163 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 3/2/2004	Me: Lauren, 29, Business Development for a software company (test automation) Him: Weston, 26, Digital Artist and Entrepreneur Location: Plano, TX Started dating: June 1st, 2002 How you met: Our local VW message board . . . I was looking for a roommate for my house. Expected engagement date: Perhaps May/June when we go to Jamaica or August 2005 in Lake Tahoe. update Jan 2005 I nailed him down to a timeframe for engagement. He said soon - I asked him not to say soon because boy-soon and girl-soon are 2 completely different things. So when I explained what girl-soon was in my mind (3-6 months) and he gave me a timeframe of (6-18 months). So, now that that's out of my head, I can just enjoy . . . being . . . update again May 2005 So, when we talked in January, he gave me a timeframe of 6-18 months. Let the official waiting begin on our 3rd anniversary! Thank you, Leonid for giving us our own forum! Update Engaged - 12th February 2006 Married - 9th March 2006 *********************************************** DFW PS GTG Planner Extraordinaire :)

Blue824 Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,614 Last Post: 10/28/2009 Member Since: 12/15/2004	Me = Alison, 22 Him = Phil, 22 Current Locations = I'm in Chicago, he's in Washington, D.C. He will move here May 2005 after he finishes his masters (private school in CHicago vs. instate in VA makes the decision quite obvious, unfortunately)...until then, lots of phone calls and I'll keep racking up my frequent flier miles Started Dating = November 9, 2001 How We Met = Our soph. year at college, through some mutual friends. Expected Engagement Date = Well, we know we're going to get engaged, he'd do it with in the year, my requirement is that he move to Chicago and get to know my family better...So as much as I hate to admit it, we've still got a while Anything else? = We met 2 months before I left to study in Italy, and totally didn't think we'd stay together, but we did! And we've made it through a lot, and we're pro's, unfortunately, at long distance. Sometimes good things are worth the wait.

KBerly Ideal Rock Total Posts: 964 Last Post: 1/16/2007 Member Since: 4/21/2004	Oh this is exciting Me: Kim, 28 college student again, recep. in docs office Him: Ryan, 26 MBA student, AM for networking co. Locale: Massachusetts, by way of NY, by way of NC, by way of Chi-town Started dating: September 27, 2001 How we met: Lived in same apartment complex. Saw each other out a few times, he came up to me, we talked, during our convo, found out he would be transferred with his company from NC to NY soon and didn't see him again for 2 months. Saw him again out one night, we chatted walking to the restroom, came out and lost him again! This was right after 9/11 and I said what the heck, I knew he was leaving, life's too short to say, I shoulda, coulda, woulda, so I left him a note with my number on his car when I got home stating I would love to hang out before he left, and if not, I would see him around. Three days later he called and we've been together ever since. He's my babe and I love him. We've had fun moving around the east coast the last few years (believe it or not), this is the time to do it. He bought a place here in Mass., so the ring was put on hold...I told him a house is an investment and the ring can definitely wait!! But, hopefully this year will be the year

We really clicked, but he had a girlfriend at the time. Then almost a year later we went to a July 4th bash together, he monkey dumped me in the pool several times and that was the end of singledom. I've never been so sure of anything. Expected engagement date: soon, he's got the ring pieces, it needs to be set, and then it better not be too long! Maybe only a couple of weeks. Anything else you want to add?: Thank you LIW for all of your considerate, thoughtful advice, and willingness to share your own troubles - you have saved my sanity. Oh, and GO PATS!!!

fire&ice Ideal Rock Total Posts: 7,827 Last Post: 3/30/2009 Member Since: 7/22/2002	Hah! Your very own forum. What a great idea! I follow your thread periodically. F&I - 45 married to the same man for over 20 years. Met on a blind date. He forgot my name. Had to ask his friend my name - just when the bar got extremely quiet. Forgot my name ( in the most huffy of tones) - F&I was used to MUCH MORE attention. He got mine. Engaged in less than 6 months after proclaiming that he wasn't going to get married until he was 30. We had a long engagement while he finished Grad School. I'll have to check in here every once in a while.

His brother was with his girlfriend 5 years before he proposed (Christmas 2004) and that was only after she put in some hard work, so I'm not expecting anything. Anything else you want to add?: I've spent the afternoon reading the forums and thought it only polite to introduce myself... I'm in my first year at Uni and my boyfriend and I are planning on moving in as soon as possible once I've graduated - can't wait to graduate!

JCJD Ideal Rock Total Posts: 1,977 Last Post: 5/8/2007 Member Since: 9/8/2004	Yay!!! Our very own forum!!! Thanks so much Leonid!!! You're the BEST!!! Me: JC, 23 TODAY!!! Him: JD, 25 Location: Nebraska Started dating: September 27th, 1997 How you met: We both hung out with the same group of friends in H.S. but hadn't actually met each other until a mutual friend's 16th b-day party - we were bowling partners. Then a week later, our marching band went to Disney World, we carted around the parks in a big group, I got to know him better, developed a HUGE crush (I was 14/15 - my b-day occurred over the trip). A month later my best friend secretly told him I liked him, I told him I liked him, and it still took him until September to ask me out!! First date was the Homecoming dance my junior year, his senior year. Next year he was in college in our hometown, year after that I went to college in Illinois, we were long-distance for those 4 years, and it turned out that the U in town was the best place for me to go to grad school - PhD in biology. So, we've been together for 7+ years, now engaged, getting married this summer! Yay!!! OH! I joined LIW back in September 2004, and I'm so glad I did!! Engagement date #1 (proposal, no ring): November 19, 2004 Engagement date #2 (re-proposal, ring): December 23, 2004 Wedding date: June 24, 2005 Anything else you want to add?: Even though I'm an alumnus now, I'm addicted to the LIW!! It was such a lifesaver during the waiting process! If anybody wants advice or reassurance or just someone to vent to, I'm glad to help!! My sweetheart!! My e-ring!! 3/8 ct, G, SI2 pear, plat setting with accent RB (prob about 1 - 3 points), 4.5 ring size.

TravelingGal Ideal Rock Total Posts: 11,306 Last Post: 11/21/2009 Member Since: 12/29/2004	Me: 32 Him: 32 (will be 33 shortly) Location: me: L.A. California. Him, Adelaide Australia Started dating: wouldnt' say "dating" per se, but it was February 2003 How you met: We met in the Czech Republic. I had decided I was done with work for awhile and quit when I was 30 years old to grab a backpack and bum around Europe. Ah FREEDOM! Apparently, on the other side of the Pacific (Australia), a boy had the same idea and also quit his job to begin traveling when he was 30. I had not planned to go to a little town called Cesky Krumlov (and I'm a planner!) For some reason I decided to go there. It was dark when I arrived, and a misty cold night. I had no idea where I was going, but had a flyer of a hostel I wanted to check out. I kept passing by other hostels, but for some reason, I continued on, even though I was cold and tired. When I finally found it, I found him. Handsome, with a sexy Ozzie accent, and MY AGE! (I can't tell you how many 19 year olds, albeit very nice 19 year olds, told me, "I want to look as good as you when I get to be YOUR age." WHA????? I'm not that old!! Whirlwind romance while in Europe isn't supposed to last. Well, at least it's statistically challenged. But we both went home to our corners of the globe, and decided when fate throws something your way, you go with it. Expected engagement date: I don't care for an engagement at this point (found this site because I wanted some information on why he SHOULDN'T be looking at Tiffany rings!). I am a LIW because we are waiting for his greencard to come through (I hope you don't mind me posting here...I have been following your stories with interest and thought I should introduce myself on this thread.) He won the greencard in a govt lottery. No joke! When we won, we figured it was fate. So we are just waiting for the final interview, which should be this spring...and then we can live in the same hemisphere, oh joy! We don't want to get married to bring him into the country (or vice versa) Anything else you want to add?: You ladies all seem very beautiful and intelligent. The biggest mystery to me is why these men aren't already BEGGING you to marry them! Good luck in 2005 ladies! P.S. I have to say (and I know many of you ladies who are doing it would agree): Long distance sucks!! _______________________ Travel quote of the week: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.

katrina_33 Cut Rock Total Posts: 445 Last Post: 7/30/2008 Member Since: 6/8/2004	Me: Kate, 25 - Film publicist Him: Rob, 32 - Filmmaker Location: Los Angeles, CA Started dating: Thanksgiving weekend, 2001 How you met: Through mutual friends in Florida, where I was in my last year of college, and he was visiting home (he'd already relocated to LA by this point.) We were long distance for the first 6 months, and then I moved to CA when I graduated. For a couple of years we lived within walking distance of each other on the same street, and then bought a house together about a year ago. We now live together, with 2 adorable, wonderful doggies, and have been together for a little over 4 years, through thick and thin. Expected engagement date: I'm thinking "Boy soon"... We talk about it and understand that it's a mutual priority, and I would think within the year for sure. But, I'm trying not to put pressure on or do much of the initiation. I want it to happen when he's really ready and I want him to initiate the whole process - I think it will be more fun that way! Anything else you want to add?: This forum is great. Although I try not to fixate on the whole engagement thing, I think this forum has actually helped me not obsess in a weird way, because I read all of these stories about people who are in my boat, for whom the process is taking longer than they'd like for some reason, and I realize that there's nothing wrong with us, and the process is different for everyone! There's no "right" amt of time to have been together before a proposal, and there's no "right" order that everything needs to happen in. The way I look at it, I've had an extra year to really consider everything I want in an engagement ring and learn so much more about diamonds than I would have otherwise!

wcitygirl Rough Rock Total Posts: 86 Last Post: 3/15/2005 Member Since: 1/6/2005	Me: M, 26 Him: B, 29 Location: Colorado Started Dating: 11/03 How We Met: Well, we were both part of this club and we had a meeting in Boston in July 03. Neither of us were really into the club, but a mutual friend convinced us both to go. (The funny thing was that this mutual friend was like: Oh, don't worry, he's not your type AT ALL.) He was dating someone else at the time and so was I, so we met in Boston and talked the entire time, but then said our goodbyes. Well, we kept hanging out through mutual friends. Well, once when we were hanging out, he was complaining that he didn't know how to program numbers into his cell phone and so I taught him...using my number. hehehehehe. Well, he started calling all the time, but we were still dating other people. [Sorry, this is getting long.] Well, we both knew there was a mutual attraction there, but I really wanted HIM to make the first move. So, I broke up with the guy I was dating and he called me and told me that he had broken up with the girl he had been dating. I mentioned that I was planning on painting my apt the next weekend. He asked me if I wanted help. (He must have had a big crush too -- painting is AWFUL!!!!) Well, we had a great time and after we were done painting, we watched a movie and he ended up kissing me. And after he did, I said: What took you so long? (WHY do I talk sometimes?!?!?!) And we've been together ever since.... I guess he WAS my type afterall!! :) Expected Engagement: WELLLLLL, it took him 5 mos. to make a move before we started dating. Maybe sometime in the next decade?!?!? ACTUALLY. He's leaving for grad school in Aug. and wants me to move with him and I've told him that I need a major commitment (proposal) from him before I move across the country. I checked my horoscope (not that I believe in that stuff, but it's still fun and gives me some hope MAYBE?!) I think MAYBE?!?!? towards the end of May.... I just hope it's before Aug! Eeeek!
