getting engaged


Question Posted Wednesday January 25 2006, 6:09 pm

I know that my boyfriend is going to officially propose to me (19/f) sometime soon. He told me he bought a ring and that he's waiting for the right time to give it to me. I'm okay with the fact that he told me, I'm actually pretty glad about it. You see girls in the movies all the time that are pressured into going along with engagement. I think it was really respectful of him to talk about it with me, it's just that I'm not quite sure how to act when the time comes. Obviously I'll be happy, but since I'm probably not going to be surprised should I sort of pretend to be? I tend to show very little emotion and I think it might hurt his feelings if I don't appear to be happy or surprised or SOMETHING. I want it to be really special. Can anybody help me out here?

Maybe to help spark your emotion, when you see the ring.. just think of the most sweetest think he could ever say. The ring shows how much he loves you and always wants to be with you.. remember that.

even though i am far, far, far from this stage,
i think that he will catch you off-guard, beacause if he loves you so much to want to marry you, he will know your "emotion problem"
well not really problem, but you know.
just act nautural.
ooh and good luck,
C

I don`t think you should act surprised it`ll be special.. I think just say yes when he asks and give him a kiss.. And say a simple i love you.. I don`t think you should bust out in tears i mean you already know he`s going to do it.. But if he didn`t mention it and then asked i think that would be a different story.. Congradualtions!!! =) ♥Dez

Since you already know he's planning to propose, I don't think he'll be upset if you're not really surprised. However, when he shows you the ring he's picked out (if you haven't saw it already), that may come as a surprise. Just tell him yes and give him a big kiss or hug.


I knew my hubby was planning to propose and even went with him to pick out the engagement ring I wanted. My surprise came when he actually proposed because of the way he did it (long mushy story I'll not get into).


Congrats!

You can act surprised if you want, but I think he might know you are faking. YOu can show your happiness, but don't go to overboard. He knows that he already talked to you, so if yoiu are really fake, I think he'll know. I would be happy if I were you though. Congratulations. Good luck.

Well, unless he's actually shown you the ring too, you will be suprised at what it looks like. You don't have to act suprised, because then he'll know you're being fake. Just act thankful, for him, that he engaged, and for the gorgeious ring, that he's paying for, that he wants to put on your finger. Just make sure that he knows that you love him just as much as he loves you.
And congrats, in advance, weddings are always fun.
