we are leaving for camping today! i''m soo excited.
unfortunately, i''m also hoping against hope, wishing against wish that it will be the big weekend
a couple months after we started dating we went camping up north and it was the first time we really talked about *the future* (as we walked in the snowy woods under the stars, it was so romantic!) and i had told him that if he were to ever propose that i would want it to be at a moment like that. i know he remembers because he mentioned it a few weeks ago...but it was followed by a "well yeah, but then if we went up north it would be obvious" and i reminded him that we were going up north for both my brothers wedding (two weeks ago) and camping. This was followed by a big "yeah right, you wish!" by him (in a funny way, not a mean way). anyways, it would all just be so perfect...
however
i know it''s not going to happen. he has been telling me so many stories lately that he can''t even keep them straight (i.e. that he just called in a stone, that he decided not to go with whiteflash, that the ring was done two weeks ago, etc etc). anyways through it all i did get the impression that he didn''t have it, and whats more he''s not acting any differently or especially excited for the trip, which i would maybe sort of expect him to? anyways, i am trying everything i know to guard myself against the disappointment of it not happening. i know it will be a great trip and we are going to have a ton of fun and it''s not like it would ruin the trip for me. but i am scared that i am going to get home and not have a ring and be disappointed that the last great opportunity of the summer has came and went and that it means that he really is going to make me wait for a decent amount of time. (it will also mean that my chances for a winter wedding are out the window).
SO
tell me a proposal on an abandoned beach under the stars is cliche. tell me it''s too predictable! tell me that i wouldn''t even be able to put the ring on because of all the mosquito bites ironically present on my ring finger. tell me anything! lie to me girls! anything to get my hopes so low that they couldn''t possibly be let down.
i just don''t want to be sad about it when i get home. and i don''t want him to even have the slightest idea that i am a little bit bummed it didn''t happen.
