I have the LIWitis....
This board is probably not helping. I found it after searching gemstones and then found all these other great forums.
I haven''t joined the list, as i know its not coming soon. We have been together 4 yrs, 3.5 living together. We moved states for my job. He joined me no questions asked. We even looked at buying a house this spring but it didn''t work with the short sale and we had to sign a lease to have a place to live. But when I start to bring the subject up, he shuts down, is quiet and all i get is he is not ready- kind of like the vent thread that is going on now. He tends to not be so proactive, so I worry he will never think to ask if I don''t bring it up. He will be happy to just coast along as is. But I also don''t want to pressure him into something he is not ready for.
But now.... I found a ring that I am in love with. Its used, in my size, in our (my estimated) price range. And its SOOO much bigger than anything we could afford if we bought new. It is a slightly lower color, which i am fine with.
I stalked the poster and PM''d her when the listing disappeared. She says it just needed to be renewed! Now she wants to know if I''m interested. OF COURSE I AM! But what do I say? I was stalking it and really cant get it right now cause my BF has no intention of proposing anytime soon? It could be one heck of a promise ring
I''ve tried talking to people at work (only friends since the move) and they are all in very different places and can''t really understand my crazy. I am hoping you ladies will
