I've name changed due to my partner knowing my username hee hee!!

I've just found a very dainty petit diamond ring on the bedside table (his side). We only have one. This also holds my make up and bits 'n bobs.

We've only been together and living together for four months but we both know we ate meant for each other.

What do I do? Do I ask him about it? Wait for him to bring it up? It's basically sitting on top behind my little clock. Do you think it's meant for me? I've no idea when he could have purchased it either. So confused but also so excited. I'm to nervous to bring it up, but maybe he is nervous too and hoping I'd see it and bring it up myself. Aaaahhhh!!! Do you think it's an engagement ring!? We're both so in love with each other!!

Need your wisdom and experience :-)9

Well mine does Sparklysilversequins. He enjoys cooking it is his passion. What can I say?

Dear OP
I climbed a tree today too but I am not as graceful as you as I managed to rip my arms and legs to shreds on the way down.

Enjoy your life. I really hope it's as blissful as it seems. I realise reading this I am not a romantic. But we cannot all be the same.

Though this eternity ring business - it's a cop out. Hope he does what you wanted in your original post and asks you to marry him.

Well personally I would feel totally and utterly smothered but I am fiercely independent and couldn't bear to spend every waking moment in someone's company because it's boring.

ZingWidge · 14/07/2013 18:12

mario is it you again?
or AnneFrankie?

any news about Sharon?

Portofino · 14/07/2013 18:13

So if I were to put it to you that this is a rebound relationship, he sounds like a cocklodger who doesn't plan to marry you, and most chefs don't earn that much - and he is living the dream after persuading you to chuck your ex out of his home. In reality, probably not where we are now, that would ring HUGE alarm bells. You don't bother to see your friends, and wait up for him til early hours, when he would be fed at work. And he gave you a shitty ring? The miniatures was a nice touch though...

BoyMeetsWorld · 14/07/2013 18:14

I've had a truly rubbish day and this thread has cheered me right up Smile suspicion tells me the OP is a troll, by the way of writing and the convenient name change / first post. That said, if she is - who cares!? It's made for seriously entertaining reading & exposed a lot of peoples' bitterness

LizaTarbucksAuntie · 14/07/2013 18:15

I reckon with a decent ladder and a bunk up I could host a dinner up there.....

GertrudeMorel · 14/07/2013 18:17

There was a very similar thread quite recently.

Portofino · 14/07/2013 18:21

Liza, I can see you up a tree Grin

LadyBeagleEyes · 14/07/2013 18:23

I freely admit I can be a miserable, cynical cow, as others are on here.
I wouldn't say we were bitter though, it's just the whole 'quirky', Disney princessy, I'm so sweet and kind and good and luffs everybody tone of the op makes me feel a little bit nauseous.
If I was seeing you everyday in RL I'd probably strangle you Op. Wink

Portofino · 14/07/2013 18:25

You get these threads from time to time. Hot date, woman asked out by boss, big romance shit intended to have the gullible waiting for updates. Not saying this is the case here though....

LizaTarbucksAuntie · 14/07/2013 18:25

Really Porto?

would need to be v sturdy ladder obvs...

redandblacks · 14/07/2013 18:26

PS please forgive my grammatical errors, iPhone has a mind of its own! :-)). I live to make the world a happy place. We both have the same values, that's why he volunteers to help homeless people and cook for them and I help animals!

So are you a benefits couple, both volunteering? Re making the world a better place, was your former partner the exception to thsi policy? You still sound bonkers, you probably live a dull life in a bungalow in Dagenham with a local library full of Barbara Cartland.

What can we do for you anyway, now that the great mysetery has been unravelled?

RippingYarns · 14/07/2013 18:28

I'm trying not to make a case for NOT using the cliche that involves a picnic and being bereft of the required sum of bread based meals.

Which is what I'd do if I climbed a tree with a couple of supermarket placcy bags laden with tasty finger treats.

Inclusionist · 14/07/2013 18:28

I'm not bitter. I just don't think it's any healthier to cut out whole groups of emotions than it is to cut out whole food groups.

redandblacks · 14/07/2013 18:28

Climb back up that tree and stay there that's a good nymph ... you seem to have some kind of emotional issue and are seeking an outlet to address it online

Portofino · 14/07/2013 18:29

Liza, I can see you and I stuck in a tree. Wine box, sausage rolls and your homemade cake dangling in Waitrose bags in the breeze. Then someone would have to call the fire brigade to retrieve us.....this is already my new favourite fantasy Grin

RippingYarns · 14/07/2013 18:31

Too many nots there

OP, would you like to hang the Taramousalata bag off one?

LadyBeagleEyes · 14/07/2013 18:32

Oh yes, that was Dan Snow boss wasn't it, Portofino Grin?
They'll be married with a couple of bubbas now.

HarrietSchulenberg · 14/07/2013 18:33

Not sure I know of any market towns that have a market every day of the week for OP's partner to source food from. Most are weekly as daily markets aren't sustainsble.

LizaTarbucksAuntie · 14/07/2013 18:34

what was that you said about firemen? rescue? you say... OR we could lure them up one by one like some kind of Waitrose fuelled Midsummer Night's Dream.

I can see this working as a mini series.

BOF · 14/07/2013 18:38

I bloody love dolls' houses. I've got a lovely one that I pretended was for my daughter.

Skintorama · 14/07/2013 18:42

I think you sound very sweet, Op. But your boyfriend sounds like a tosser.

InLoveWithDavidTennant · 14/07/2013 18:42

blimey!

think im on the fence wrt this thread

PrincessKitKat · 14/07/2013 18:48

Inclusionist - I very much like your food group analogy! I will make a note.

OP I do love your positivity but a £3 meal deal does not a picnic make. A picnic requires a blanket and ants.
