by the "That Girll" bug!! I was really, really trying not to become that, since it does NOTHING but make myself even more CRAZY AND IMPATIENT! I was at my BF's place over the weekend as I commonly am. He's only been in his new condo a few weeks and is still moving things around, unpacking and the like. I was helping with getting things put away and came across a small, velvet box. I went cold and got that roller coaster, stomach drop-out feeling, thinking- OMG did he go out and get something already? I haven't told him what I like yet!!!!! I haven't done my nails! Who do I call first? Is he doing it today? Wait I look like crap right now... all this going on in my head in about 10 seconds. I put the box back on the dresser and went back to the closet. BF comes in to ask where I wanted to go to dinner. I said how about someplace nice? He looks at my quizzically and says ok. He turns to leave, turns back to the dresser and I almost wet myself... He says hey, did I show you these? In the velvet box were the CUFF LINKS he got as ATTENDANT GIFTS for his sister's wedding in April!! I almost keeled over. Sunday morn I did him a favor and walked over to the store to get some more milk. I come back to the apt. and let myself in since I have keys now (big step) to his place. He's in the process of emptying a box on the dining table and there is a small jewelry pouch. I didn flip-flops again. This time I asked what it was. He says, oh it's a nice little necklace I found for my mom. I guess the expression on my face made him ask- why? what did you think it was? I said 'nothing'. He walks over to me, kisses me on the forehead and says trust me, there will be more to it than you just finding a random box somewhere, then walks away. The rest of the weekend I was looking for clues into everything he said and did. How do I keep from making my own head explode!!!!!?!?!?!??!?!?!?

hahaha. you know what? i often feel like i do the exact same thing. i have a lottt of jewelry, and theres like a million little velvet boxes in his room, my room wherever we are. and i always kinda freak when i see one. i've now decided i don't care. (well secretly i DO.. but he thinks i dont) and i'm just playing the game. (what a crappy game. but in the end, the winner-which will be ME will get a fantastic prize) :) so chin up !

I'm starting to drive myself mental. He called at work today and said he to stop by the mall for something after work. I didn't ask what, but he's never secretive about things. I also knwo he would never get something important like an e-ring from a mall Maybe he's just getting something small?? My b-day is in Oct and I'm hopeful. Must go back to regular yoga classes and (try to) ease my mind. |

hahaha.. i'm the same. i analyze anything he says or does(without him knowing or making it TOO obvious). i've also analyzed all the "days" the he'd prolly pick, my bday is also in oct, then theres xmas, then theres vday, and our ann in march. (does are the main days) if he was more creative he could go for like nov when we had our first date ever. or something like that. but i know him too well, he will foccus more on "the evenening" then the date(i think?) ahha. but i completely understand.. has there been any mention of a ring? or a design, or a style? or any shopping? (anything?)

NYT...bless your heart. I have doen the same thing so many times...last Christmas Jeffrey gave me a box within a box with in a box which contained a necklace. It was lovely and I like it tons, but for those few moments I really thought it was a ring. Christmas times holds some inside things for V and I and I was just soo sure that was it. He knew too evil little imp that he is. After four and half years now everytime there is anything slightly out of sync I look at him and he laughs. I know you SO is going to wait for the perfect moment, for the two of you. Good Luck, try not to pull out your hair. -Matatora Courage is the price that life extracts for granting peace Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor. |

Sparkly- After a tough period a few months ago, he mentioned that he had been looking at rings but decided against since we had been fighting so much. Beginning of this month I confessed that I had been looking at styles. He asked if there was anything that I liked yet. At the time I said no to keep from looking too over anxious (even though I had been drooling over some Whiteflash desings) I told myself that I would wait until Sept to show him anything, so my wait for "the question" wouldn't be forever. He said on New Year's Day thta we would be engaged this year. I figure- show him a design and a reputable place to buy a stone in Sept, then there are 3 more months to have it made, set and for him to come up with the proposal. He would do it on an obvious day... a friend of ours proposed to his GF on Christmas Eve and the first thing my BF said was "That's just so cliche!!" Matatora- I'm trying to get my hair to grow out, so rather than that I start cleaning. A lot. Gets my mind off of things at least for short periods of time. A perfect moment for him could anything from afterglow to between drinks at a bar! It's impossible to tell. He gave me earrings for Christmas 2003 I would be really antsy about anything else coming to me in a jewelry box. |

Nytemist, I know exactly how you feel. My bf is never secretive.....a real straight shooter. But I have been asking him what he wants to do for Labor Day weekend and he keeps telling me that we are going to do something, but he won't tell me what. Then last night he told me that he has a present for me but he can't give to me yet because it isn't wrapped. Well you know exactly what was going throught my mind. ERING! The last time he said he got me a present it was fresh sweet corn......Anyways I know deep down that it's not an ering. We haven't even looked at rings together yet, and I told him I wanted to pick it out or at least show him what I like. I hate to admit it but I have become 'that girl' too.

I know this will not make you gals feel better.... But, I don't know how to describe all the various "signals" that seem to come from "D" and the various expectations and dashed hopes as well. Overall, I'm sure it must work out. Somehow... Perry
