I'm getting the ring tomorrow and I saw her tonight. BTW we have been having our issues (we lived with each other then decided we needed to live in different places until we knew were ready. We had 'breathing' issues) but we have come together, we love each other. I couldn't hold back and popped the question to her while we we're lying in her bed, she didn't believe me and kept asking if i was for-real. She said she was in awe and said 'Yah'. I told her I understood if she said no, but she said 'Yah'. I told her I'd get the ring tomorrow, she was excited for a brief moment and we kissed a few times then she fell asleep. I told her 'Don't rush your decision, its ok I just want to want be sure you believe this is the right choice'. I don't know if she heard it. I also said 'Should I go back to my place tonight' and she mumbled 'uh-huh' before falling asleep. I told her I couldn't resist and I was sorry it wasn't a magical proposal, she said it was ok. WHATS THIS MEAN?!?!?! I just regret it now, I wish I would have waited on getting the ring and then popped it at an awesome moment.
Yeah it's a roller coaster, she is a master manipulator... It seems we still have our issues, I really want the ring to just show my sincerity and then get married next year That's where I did wrong, I should have waited, I regret it now. Oh well, we will see her reaction when she see's the ring tomorrow...
Hmmm... this needs a little "fixing"... : I'm getting the ring tomorrow and I saw her tonight.

WHATS THIS MEAN?!?!?! I just regret it now, I wish I would have waited on getting the ring and then popped it at an awesome moment. Fixed. What is this, a trend...? People proposing when relationships are on the rocks... without rings... on the bed... and getting questioned if it's 'for real' and, on top of that, the woman saying 'it was ok'?? WOW. I don't know whether to . , or to this thread. Oh, yeah, BTW, congratulations sir, on you "acceptance." Weird.
Pop it again with the ring, in whatever traditional romantic way you wished you'd done it originally. Just tell her you wanted to make sure you got it right.
well atleast you know the answer so you wont be charged a restocking fee if you had to return the ring. congrats!
I proposed without the ring. I had it all planned out. Trip to Galveston for the weekend, already asked her Dad's permission (I'm old school like that), had the spot on the beach picked out, had the whole day/night planned out, had the whole proposal planned and everything. But a couple of days before we were leaving, the jeweler called and said the ring wouldn't be ready until the next week.... I still did it and it was great. Not as good as with the ring, but we laugh about it now. Congrats. EDIT: Wait, is this the chick that you had the previous threads about????

Did you'll just finish having great sex before you popped the question, i.e. you had an epiphany that you wanted to spend the rest of your life with this woman because the sex was great and it led you to thinking about all the great things you love about her? I guess I'm wondering why you were so spur of the moment with the question...versus planning it better. Now, you have a double pop scenario...which is okay but the surprise element is gone. Hey, at least you got an answer in person and not over the phone like the other poster. But, you kind of fumbled as well. That's okay. Congrats!
