Just wanted to give some support

[wellinsm]

Hi there

I''ve been lurking for quite a while and have read with interest many of the stories that you have all shared. I just wanted to let all of you know who are waiting to not give up!
I was with my now (finally!) husband for 5 years before he proposed. He had some major committment hang ups etc of which I won''t bore you with.
I knew I loved him and wanted to be with him, and I knew that he loved me to and in the end it would all work out.
I would dread thinking about and having the "talk" with him about "where this was going and when". It can be such an uncomfortable situation and conversation.
After we had the "talk" I did feel better, but it was hard to wait and not pressure him and pepper him with questions or try to pry information out of him.

Just so you know....good things to happen to those who wait. He went out, bought a ring all by himself, did a wonderful job, and proposed in his time and in a way he was comfortable with.
Or as my mom tells me "Patience is a virtue"
He proposed at the end of August 08 and we were married 2 weeks ago!

Sending lots of support your way!

Awww. That is very sweet of you, thank you so much for your kind words! And congratulations on your marriage. I too like to think that good things come to those who wait. It certainly is hard not to ask questions about the future but its something I am working on this year! I know he wants to marry me (he's told me so) and in good time when the time is right, he will propose to me! I try to remind myself of this! And I'll bet he will blow my mind away when he does it.

Thanks again!

I couldn''t agree more. Waiting patiently is worth it, when you know where your man''s heart is. I know being patient in the end made my proposal that much more special.

Congratulations on your recent marriage!

What is that quote again, something like...

"Anything worth having is worth waiting for."

I have found myself saying that a lot lately! He is so worth it...
