sorry for any guys who might read this, but it seems like when "my time of the month" rolls around, i bite my b/f's head off about why we aren't engaged yet after 4 1/2 yrs of being together:( I mean gettin a ring shouldn't be a big deal to me b/c we both know we're gonna spend the rest of our lives together, however he said the reason we're not engaged is b/c of our financial status right now and of my insecurities *which i'm currently in therapy for*...

 

i'm just soo anxious to get a damn ring on my finger! and i dont wanna be like that.

 

Any input?

PMS magnifies every emotion. There are great treatments now. Lots of ladies do well with supplements. Google PMS or actually Mamma it (I'm finding mamma is much more accurate than Google) and talk to your doctor. There are several non-medicinal interventions you can try to keep you saner during PMS.

Alica, are you certain that getting married is what he wants to do? It could be that he's not sure about it, but is leary of actually saying that because you have your heart set on it and have a tendency to get a little hot under the collar.

yes i'm very certain...as long as we've been together, it's been discussed quite often. He said he wants to be married at least by the time he's 25 *he's almost 23 now*

 

and just out of nowhere he made the comment the other day, sayin "honey i wanna get you a ring soon b/c i know w/ out a doubt that we're gonna spend the rest of our lives together" so i mean just from that and everything else he's told me, i have no doubts that he wants to get married...

You have a time-line & sound convinced that it's going to happen.* Therefore hassling the guy will get you nowhere, in fact it's more likely to drive him away.* You're just going to have to learn to be patient & wait until he's 25.

...my insecurities *which I'm currently in therapy for*...

 

What does your therapist have to say about this?

Well, in that case I wouldn't stress out about it. It sounds very much in your favor. I agree with the last poster: Don't press him too much. Be patient.
