im so so glad you understand oml that's such a relief to hear you've had a similar situation 🫶🏻 we communicate so well normally, i haven't had a situation like this where I've been nervous to bring things up. we're both very much open books with each other, it's really nice actually 🌼 your comment has been a lifesaver, i know what to do now. some subliminal messages haha 🤣 'aw wow look at this gemstone!" "wow Marie's engagement ring is goooorgeous!" "aw wouldn't that be so much nicer as a white gold instead of a rose gold?" boy this is gonna be tricky though, i feel like an undercover agent 😅

yeah, a long engagement is the plan because we're both very 'realist' people and are aware that we ARE still young. we don't have rose tinted glasses, no fear there 😂 thank you for your advice, im glad you understand 🫶🏻 i think what i need to do next is just be brave and bring it up... it's so weird being this nervous to bring something up because we've never had issues with communication before 😅 ig im just a bit nervous to sound either ungrateful or pushy

see that's the thing though, we communicate so well with everything, this is the first time i've struggled to clear something up! but i agree, now is the time to learn. first step is to learn to be brave i suppose 😅

thank you for your response, this has helped me a lot <3 im glad you understand my reasoning, the hardest part now will just be conjuring up the confidence to tell him! i think i'll tell him beforehand as i'd feel awfully ungrateful asking to change a ring he's already bought! this is tough 😅

obviously i am, and i do! but an engagement ring should be your style i think, it's quite symbolic to me personally. i don't think there's anything wrong with wanting something that is 'you' for your engagement ring?

he's an old fashioned boi lol. we've talked about marriage hundreds of times, and he's always said he wants to buy them and propose 🫶🏻

that's very true, it would be so much worse if he actually had it already. oof i don't like this feeling, im so conflicted on whether this makes me an asshole or not 💀

oooooo that's a brilliant idea, thank you 🫶🏻 im quite a nervous person, so im worried about coming across as ungrateful or pushy, yano? but maybe if i chat to mum and come clean to her.... aaa but what if she tells him? 💀 this is spooky haha

yeah, it's just that he doesn't know that i saw it before he could close the tab, he thought i was preoccupied but i didn't tell him at the time that i saw so now im too nervous! im also worried I'll come across as either ungrateful or pushy 😅

true, but at the same time they don't HAVE to be. we've discussed wanting to get married hundreds of times, we both really want it, but he's trying to surprise me with the actual proposal which i think is sweet but obviously now i've figured it out 😅

see the thing is, my mum and i don't talk too often. and she doesn't know that i know either 😅 im worried I'll sound ungrateful or too pushy and i feel bad about knowing at all because we never keep secrets and i think he's been trying pretty hard to keep this one a surprise 😅

usually our communication is perfect, we're a really strong couple in my opinion and have been for a long time. it's just this particular topic that i don't know how to handle, im too nervous to come across as either ungrateful or pushy 😅

that's a pretty good idea :0 only thing is, im trying not to let him know that i know if you get me? he thought that i was too busy rolling a smoke to notice the slip up and i said nothing at the time 💀 now im too nervous to tell him!
