I have been dating my bf for only 7 months so far. I knew from the first month that he is the man I am going to marry and we have talked about marriage from the moment we both realized we were meant to be together.. he told me that he had my proposal all planned out and he knew exactly when he was going to propose... when we do get engaged it will be a long engagement because we are saving up to build a house (we already have the land to build it on) I am having trouble being patient sometimes because I know he is proposing sometime this year and I don't know when.. it bugs me sometimes... lol I know it shouldn't because I know that we will end up engaged and married someday.. its the waiting that I sometimes have problems with. We don't argue or fight too much at all.. but we have argued about this before because I get all sensitive about things. How can I overcome being oversensitive over things and become more patient?

Yeah I know.. =) I am very happy in my relationship.. I think I have had this feeling lately because all of my friends basically got engaged in the month of December and my one friend had been with her bf for only 6 months before getting engaged and they are getting married around their one year anniversary. I also realize that we are not them... he has a house already and we are saving to build one so it will take us longer.. and I know it will be worth the wait. When I get this feeling of wanting to be engaged sooner I just sit back and think of what I do have with him which is amazing... we are both responsible adults and I know things will work out. =) Thanks for your input too, I appreciate hearing what other people think cause I know I am crazy sometimes... lol

yeah i feel the same way u do..all my friends are engaged now so i feel a little bit envious i guess and want to be engaged sooner. i've only been with my bf for 5 months, i am starting to think he is the one for me. we havnt really talked a great deal about marriage or getting engaged yet, hopefully in the future though. i know its hard to not be engaged when all ur friends are, believe me i dont think i would be as hung up on if everyone wasnt engaged, and it sounds like ur going through the same thing. i'm trying to be patient and wait for my bf to get to the point where he wants to talk about it. so just try to focus on that u love ur bf and know its going to work out and not to get hung up so much on the proposal. u dont have to be engaged to know u want to spend the rest of ur life with someone.

 

hopefully i can take my own advice!

Yep, thats exactly why I feel that way I think.. the fact that all my friends are engaged.. most of the time I am fine.. but if something comes up about a proposal or I see something about one on TV or a movie then it gets me thinking about it.. lol most of the time I am fine with it.. it just seems like it is never going to come.. I know it will though.. I have always had a hard time being patient I think.. before I was a impatient about finding that special someone and now that I have I just have to wait for the next steps in our relationship. These first 7 months have went fast and now it seems to be going slower.. hehe anyways.. I wish you well in your relationship and I hope things work out the way you want them to =)
