    Yeah... probably:D
    Aw, not having a go - I know how hard it is! So much easy to sit here the other side now and say how you should /shouldn't respond etc. I missed a 1000 opportunities in my attempt to keep it 'light and casual' I asure you.

    Haha awww bless ya.

    I arrived home from Xmas party last night a bit drunk :rotfl:And oh said look on iPad I thought it would be some naff gadget but it was a beautiful engagement ring on the page and he said do you like and I said yes it's beautiful. After about 20 mins and him chattering on about a film he watched I finally picked up the courage to ask what it meant and he said and I quote :( it doesn't mean I am going to propose anytime soon, just if I do decide to at some point I want to make sure that I get something you like so ur first reaction isn't I don't like the ring - I was very composed and said oh ok. Inside I was screaming I just want to marry you :rotfl: grrrrr grrrrr grrrrr.

    I have very cheekily tho picked up other rings that I like and left them on the iPad for him to look at later. Then I will not mention it again. They are a bit cheaper than the one he found I don't want him spending so much on a ring :) x
