goose491 0 #26 January 23, 2004 Quoteoh, be careful then it looks like it could be... Yeah watch out. I actually have a friend who is presently 'Engaged' as he presented his GF with a promise ring and she replied "Yes!" he was like 'gulp'... that was a month and a half ago.. a select few know about it and the poor kid can't bring himself to say anything. Edited to add: It's a lovely ring though BTW, I'm sure she'll love it Nick My Karma ran over my Dogma!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boxingrrl 0 #31 January 23, 2004 The ring is beautiful. It sounds like you've got it all worked out-- it's better than the one she really liked, it's not a diamond, and you won't be giving it to her on Valentine's Day. She doesn't read the forums, does she? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kansasskydiver 0 #32 January 23, 2004 yes she reads the forums but she won't be reading them before she gets it so nothing to worry about there... i waited to post until i knew she wasn't going to be around a computer till the time i see her<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist!

kansasskydiver 0 #35 January 23, 2004 yes i know everyone be careful, but in the end, if i was older, out of school and we both weren't broke if she thought it was something else I probably wouldn't mind, in the end though if you're meant to be together it doesn't matter if and when you get married, how quick or how long you wait etc<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist!

It's the poor guy that feels trapped! hehe, actually, after a month and a half, he's acutally quite happy with the thought. They're going to wed and I don't think she'll hear about this until some anniversary when it's laughable. personally, I think even if he IS gonna marry her, he should tell her that was not his intent.

Casie 0 #37 January 23, 2004 Since you've explained what kind of stone it is (it's beautiful btw) and not a diamond, I think she'll luv it! Especially if she's expressed an interest in that stone which it sounds like she has.........~Porn Kitty WARNING: Goldschlager causes extreme emotional outbursts!

lawrocket 3 #39 January 23, 2004 I just went through the nightmare of finding an engagement ring. I proposed two months ago as of yesterday. I must say it's gotta be nice for you to get a ring just for the sake of getting her a ring. I've never done that, and engagement ring shoppign was tough (will she like it? Can I afford it? When to give it? Will she say "yes?") All that stuff. But, it was a great moment. SUrprisingly, no stress or tears or anything once I got it. It was actually anti-climactic, and nobody was surprised (I mean NOBODY who knows us said, "OH MY GOD!" They all kinda said, "Cool. Have you set a date?") I envy you.... My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
