Now what...?

DP asked me to marry him the other night, no ring or formality; I said yes, of course!

But now what...!? Do we go buy a ring together then tell family? Does he pick a ring alone? Do I chose a selection and he chooses from said selection? I know he's very keen to do a proper proposal from what he's said!

At this stage we are keeping it very quiet (just us two know), I'm presuming he's not even asked my Dad yet, but know he would want to so I'm guessing if this hasn't been done yet then it will be on his immediate to do list. I did ask him outright regarding it and he replied with "mind your own business!"

Any heads up of the done thing Would be greatly appreciated x

and credit to DP, it was no mean feat, my dad is a terrifying Glaswegian ex copper!

What was terrifying about sitting down with your partner’s best friend and stating your intention to marry her? I mean what exactly was your dad going to do? Chomp his arm off?

DP asked me to marry him the other night, no ring or formality; I said yes, of course! In what way is that not a "proper proposal"?
