do u think he will buy it?!!?
my bf and I have been together for 4.5 years now. he is 31, never married and i’m 30 w/3 girls from a previous marriage that he helps me raise part time (they are ages 10,8,and 7)
we have lived together officially since Feb of this year (I say officially b/c I had an apartment for 3 years but rarely stayed there the last 2 years).
we had talked about marriage awhile back and we both know we want to spend the rest of our lives together. while shopping at costco last week, we walked past the jewelry section and I saw a beautiful flower/butterfly shaped diamond ring. it was very simple but so pretty w/the butterfly in the middle and rows of diamonds on each side. He saw it too and thought that it was pretty but not expensive enough (it was 1300.00). I told him that I have really small hands (wear a size 3.5 in rings) so anything bigger than the 0.70 carats it was would be just too big and I didn’t want anything too expensive anyways-it was about being with him afterall.
we went back to costco again yesterday for some things and saw that the ring was still there so we looked again. he suggested I ask someone to take it out so I could try it on. we did and it was perfect!! It still looked big on my finger and he was suprised by this and told me it was beautiful. I joked w/him that he was going to get me totally attached to it and then he’d be in trouble.
when we got home, he pulled me aside and told me how much he loved me and the kids and that within 6 months, I’d have my ring. He then said he knew how much I liked the one at costco and that he also knew that it was one of a kind (once costco sells it, they dont replace it with the same kind of ring). I gave him a big hug and kiss then we went about our day.
i’m trying not to get too excited but this ring was "the ring" kind of like a woman knows when a wedding dress is "the dress"!!
do you think he’ll get it since he knows how much I liked it (and he liked it too) and then him saying it would be soon?!!
I should add that when he said i’d have my ring in 6 months-he meant we’d be engaged…
hmmmm… sounds like u loved that ring! and thats o.k! but a ring is a symbol, a token… the real promise of engagement shouldnt come from the ring, but from each others desire to be together forever. i believe you want him to be forever yours, and some guys buy "the ring" to show that they are serious. alot of women look for the ring.
in other words, ive been married for 16 years and still havent gotten an engagement ring! i got a friendship ring, and a wedding band.
the friend ship ring got stolen,wedding band got too little, my husbands broke, and were still together! it was the other terms of endearment that sealed of commitment.
there’s nothing wrong with jewelry as a token of one’s love…. but jewelry can be lost, stolen, etc… let your hearts be engaged, your soul’s desire to become one…
do u think he will buy this soon?!!?

If he has any sense, which I’m assuming he does because you’re with him - he’ll buy it.
If what you’ve wrote above is right - then he’ll definitely buy it. He may have already bought it. Obviously you know your BF more than me - but I’m male.
One of the things he mentioned to you was that he wasn’t going to get it because it wasn’t expensive enough. Now, that could be an excuse to say to you, I’m not going to get it - but surprise you on your wedding day, with that ring. So, it could be a cover up!
But, I’m pretty sure you’ll get it. In fact, I’m 99.9999% Sure.
Good Luck and Best Wishes!!

It sounds to me he was perceptive to the fact that you fell in love with it. I think he sounds like a great guy, and wants to get it for you. Sometimes jewelery shops, I am not sure with this one, but most of them have layaway or payments you can make on it so you can get your ring that you want and not pay all of it upfront. I would also make sure that is not the only ring left. Sometimes jewelery gets discontinued. Congratulates and all the happiness to you!

yeah i think hell get it.. given that itll still be there when he goes to go get it. i mean i dont see why he woulnt. you took the hard part out of the situation out for him(trying to find a ring he know youll love) so go ahead and get excited girl… just keep hoping it doesnt sell before he can get
good luck!!!

I appreciate how much you’d like to marry this man you love and have it be like a fairy tale but do yourself a favor and don’t get worked up over a ring, which is no replacement for love. Basically, I read that he wants to buy this for you and give it to you as an engagement ring. Things might not be so "jiggy" in his financial world and if he doesn’t buy you "this ring" I’d bet that’s why. Try to release attachment and focus on the real deal: the love you feel and share with him. That he’s willing to love you & be a father to your 3 children makes him worth gold in my book, the good one.
I’m thrilled you found love and that it seems like you both want the same thing. That’s end game and the ring is just a symbol. Here’s hoping you get the ring that caught you eye but if it doesn’t line up, don’t lose sight of what’s really important: the 2 of you.
This song is for you & your man. I hope you like it:

I’m pretty sure he’ll be heading back to costco asap and buying that ring!
Better start planning!
