Been with my DP for 3 years in a very happy relationship, both early twenties. We are both settled in full time careers, saving for a deposit on a house, I am very much "in it for the long run" and he regularly tells me the same.

Today he surprised me on my lunch break at work and took me to a Cafe - he does this a few times a month so nothing unusual. But what was unusual was that after we finished our lunch, he asked if we could go to the antiques shop (not his cuppa tea, totally my cuppa tea).

While walking up the road, I asked if I could pop into the Post Office first but he was insistent on going into the antiques shop first, and when we were in there looking at the jewellery cabinets (the part I always head to first), he kept slipping in questions about what stones I like in rings, what colour bands I preferred, did I like the ones with diamonds, did I prefer the small stones.

After I had finished looking at the jewellery he didn't bother browsing the rest of the shop, didn't buy anything and was happy to leave.

AND NOW THIS HAS GOT ME THINKING Hmm

Is it coming? Or has he just taken an interest in my ring choices suddenly? Am I thinking too much into this? Have I got my hopes up?
