Hi All,
I''m in need of supporting and advices on what to do with my current situation.
My boyfriend of 3 yrs (we currently live together) had bought an engagement ring for me in early May. I picked the setting and he bought the rock. He went and had it set in and had it appraised. Everything is set and I tried on the ring many times. However, he hasn''t propose yet. I thought he was going to propse on my birthday, which was May 24th, but he didn''t. We went on a llong weekend beach vacation, which I thought he was going to propose there. But it didn''t happen.
As time passes by, I get frustrated and stressed out, to a point that I can''t get it out of my head that he''s backing out. I''ve mentioned my feelings to him many many times, and he said he understand. But all he kept asking me is "to wait". He kept saying..it''ll be soon, please just wait a little.
I''m running out of patience and his "waiting" game is driving me insane.
What can I do? I don''t know what goes in his head because he did not have a good explation to why he keeps putting it on hold. His excuse is that he''s waiting for that special moment. But there were several special moments (my bday, beach vacation, ect) that have passed and yet nothing.
My friend suggests me to do the proposing. I don''t know about this though. I was thinking of giving him ultimatum, but I''m not sure about this either.
What should I do? I''m so anxious and confused, and somewhat hurt from waiting. I feel somewhat hopeless.
Anyone had this experience?
Thank you.
