I think my partner is going to propose tomorrow...

[sleepysummery]

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!!

Why haven't you wanted to marry your boyfriend long before now? Couldn't you make your mind up? Or were you waiting around for years for your boyfriend to propose?

FGS people on this site are so fecking joyless! OP clearly was being sarcastic because the first response, predictably, tried to piss on her chips when she was posting an excited happy thread.

OP, how exciting! My proposal, although obviously lovely that it happened, was not romantic at all so it's lovely that he's making the effort (for something, at least). Please do update - could it be the '24 hours till we get engaged' thing?

Rude. Maybe they didn't want to before now, maybe OP is the higher earner and she was holding off. Either way, MYOB

I don’t know but hope you have a lovely day whatever it’s about

Ouch 😣 . Did this happen to you?

Commenting so I hopefully see an update tomorrow 😜

Well happy Christmas to you too!! 🤣 grump

Looking forward to the update op 💍 🤞🏻

Oh god, I bet you're kind of dreading it if it's not what you want!!

I'm following for the update and ignoring all the nasty cynical comments, hope you are too OP. Will check in tomorrow 💍 🤞🏼 🌟

You shouldn’t have posted this OP as in true MN style, 90% of people have nothing nice to say.

So excited for you, I hope it’s a proposal for you tomorrow ❤️ xx

Why would he have to smuggle his mistress out in stages? Has he dismembered her? If so I suspect this is outside of even the expertise of MN

Any reason that’s not what you want?

I hope you get the proposal you want. Fingers crossed!

Crikey nor did I!
I associate them with old “ Reader’s Wives” style DIY soft porn.

I love this OP and think it's cute!

Please update us tomorrow... ❤️

Aww I hope you get your proposal and manage to act surprised 💍

Who trod on your corns? 🌽
It’s The Christmas Grinch!

I would like 2 return flights to the Maldives delivered to me in this way 😁🥂

Or they are independent women who don’t need a ring on their finger to be accepted by society. If and when the time comes that they actually want to get married, they will make the decision then. Men can run around fathering numerous children but are never berated for not being married. Jezzo I’m so sick of the narrative. It’s almost like we have political leaders and policy makers who joke about date rape drugs, that keep this narrative going 🙃

Hope you have a lovely Christmas OP and nice surprise, whatever it is x

Oh how exciting!!Please update OP.

Aww how exciting! Why are people so rude and maybe jealous?! So he could be out all night, a druggy, cheating or any other horrible things we see on here but he's actually making effort and people still hate. To think people call Tattle! People are no better on here, just a more stuck up version. Hope you have a lovely day!

Miserable rude fuckers on here. Hope you get a lovely proposal OP xx

I think it’s really difficult to fit the OP, who has spent the day passively being photographed by her boyfriend with her eyes closed next to a ring box, and who appears to find this an exciting indication of an imminent proposal, into any kind of ‘strong, independent woman uninterested in a ring on her finger’ model of being.
