I found an engagement ring!!!!!

[ThisMustBeMyDream]

After almost 7 years together and hoping that I'd get a proposal... I've just accidentally found the ring!!!!!!!! Putting his flaming underwear away, stuffed at the back of the drawer! Of course I looked... tried it on... it's exactly what I'd wanted and is my size! I'm overjoyed! But annoyed I found it too!

I can't tell anyone of course... I have to keep it all in! But... ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! I'm just so freakin' excited!!!!!!!

I really hope he does it soon... he knows I don't do flashy, public things. So I'm hoping it's romantic and just the two of us, or just our family (we both have children from previous relationships). He knows me so well though so I'm sure it will be lovely. He's a teacher, so I'm guessing something might happen over the summer holidays 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞. Or perhaps it could be later this year near my 40th. I'm guessing it won't be for my 40th though, he wouldn't do it then. But he might do it around that time.

Sorry for all the exclamations marks! I'm a little excited as you can probably tell.

Ring in bloody cubby. He doesn't realise not everyone is as blind as he is 🙈🤣.

Unrelated to the point of this thread, but I'd get the root canal properly finished off in Tenerife if you can - it's hard and expensive getting a dentist in the UK!

That's really made me giggle - the 'hiding' is so bad! Do you think it's an elaborate plot where you find it, turn around holding the ring box and he's on one knee?!

Loving this thread and wishing you all the love and happiness in the world.

Also, can all of the negative nobheads just do one please? Utter joy vampires.

I 2nd this, my recent UK Root Canal cost me £950 for the root canal & a further £950 for the crown!

If he doesn't ask you in the next 48 hours I'm going to ask you myself. I have never been this invested in another relationship. My heart can't take this.

This!!!

🤣

Luckily I do have an nhs dentist (although he's crap given my check up didn't show this a few weeks ago!). I may go back, but was trying to avoid more time out, cost etc etc.

@coffeelover90 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The ring in the cubby would do my head in.

I'd be SO tempted to scribble 'YES' on a piece and paper and tuck it in the box. Hopefully the maid doesn't leave it 'out' to show you that she hasn't taken it... that's happened to me lots in hotels. Jewels and watches left in plain sight to make a point....

Hurr the fuck up Mr ThisMustBe!!!

I've checked on this thread so many times, the suspense is killing me! What are you upto tomorrow OP? Glad you got your tooth sorted! Xxx

Anyone else read “Yes, surprised me” and thought he’d proposed 🤦🏻‍♀️

In theory yes. But if you know it's there, nobody on this earth would be able to not keep checking in this situation!

Sorry @Northernlights100 my bad!

@Alittlebitwary tomorrow we have kid free afternoon time, but then a la carte followed by a show. I just don't know what he is up to! I've probed to see if he wants to leave the hotel, go somewhere, has he any plans etc etc. He doesn't. 😬

No! How did I binge this entire thread and there not be a beautiful conclusion!

Good luck OP!

There was a power cut whilst having dinner. DP just said he is going back to the room to re-set the air con. Now I'm going to be on pins again!

Eeeeeeeeeee!!!!

I think he is genuinely going to reset the air con as I feel like I almost know him already by this thread 😂

😂😂😂

Here he is watching the castle on the way back to the room 🤣. From behind of course!

This is the much more likely probability. He can't cope in heat!!!

I keep seeing a notification that the OP has updated the thread - but no progress! This is excruciating! I'm going to have to hide the thread in the interest of staying sane...

This thread is fantastic 🤣

Been keeping an intermittent eye on this thread. Now need to placemark!

Why don't you take the bloody ring, get down on one knee and propose to him. Oh and video it please 😂

I love this thread. My guess is he’s a secret mumsnetter himself and he’s reading this thread and keeping us all hanging on!

I wonder if this man knows how famous he’s become, and how many women are waiting for this proposal like it’s their own 😂😂❤️
