Today he has been making me stand with my hands across my eyes, to take Polaroid photos of me.

So, this morning he took one of me next to the Christmas tree with my eyes closed. I couldn't open them until he'd left the room.

Then he's done a few more at random places across the day....

I don't want to get my hopes up but what is he hiding!? What is this about!!!

Excited but still need to keep my cool just in case it's something completely different haha.

Will update!!

Or maybe he's been stripping off and gesturing next to you and lobbing his nob out - let's hope not 😂

I wouldn't be going through all the palava of being told to stand with my eyes closed for photos to be taken!

But then I'm old and boring Grin

Ha ha that would be me. ‘No I’m not shutting my eyes, put the bloody camera down ffs’ 🤣

YayForMe · 24/12/2023 22:25

This could either be something really cute or really creepy. I hope it's a proposal!

TheWeatherOutsideIs · 24/12/2023 22:28

Proposing at Christmas is such a cop out, particularly as you don't want it. It's going to an awkward day in your house.

Why is it a cop out? I got engaged atChristmas (many moons ago). It was really magical as it was snowing and we’d just been to a midnight carol service. I remember just staring at my ring in the way home as it glinted in the streetlights.

IVFfirsttimer91 · 24/12/2023 22:33

Shameless place marking! Excited for you for tomorrow!! Let us know! 💍

Dacadactyl · 24/12/2023 21:36

Oh God, that'd put me right off him lol!

Hope you get what you're hoping for OP, whatever it is.

Me too

I'd be drier than the fucking Sahara if someone did that

sleepysummery · 24/12/2023 20:23

No it's definitely not what I want 🙃

Oh. Better tell him now then

LittleMissSleepyUK · 24/12/2023 22:35

So why are you excited if you don't want that?

Chocpot1986 · 24/12/2023 22:37

Can’t wait to find out OP! Hope it’s all magical for you x

hot2trotter · 24/12/2023 22:53

If he's following some shitty TikTok trend, I'd turn him down until he's grown up a bit.

Poppsidoppsi · 24/12/2023 22:55

Please update tomorrow! How exciting!

Exactly, I'm a bit confused as to whether you want a proposal or not OP? Anyway hope it turns out to be something good and that it's somethings exciting! Could it be tickets to somewhere with hints as to where it is? Either a holiday or a theatre trip etc? Will gphave have to return here tomorrow to find out now!

Elphamouche · 24/12/2023 22:59

I’m so invested in this!!!

Toddlerteaplease · 24/12/2023 23:00

Placemarking!

hashebeenyet · 24/12/2023 23:01

Following to find out what happens tomorrow! I'd love a proposal like this.

Byebaby · 24/12/2023 23:02

I read the OP's comment about it not being what she wanted as sarcasm. It's clear from her OP she's excited at the prospect.
