I don't live close to my high school and college friends so I suppose that's one reason I've never felt the same pressure but I hope to get married someday… Soon… And yes, I have a favorite engagement ring picked out (wink wink)

Joey and I have been together for almost 10 year and we still aren't married. He told me in our first year that he wanted to marry me but I never got a ring or anything. Then he gave me a ring a couple years ago but didn't really propose (didn't talk to my father, didn't get on one knee, didn't even ask "will you marry me") so it was more of a promise ring kinda thing? Idk. I'm really in no rush to get married and have it on paper. We've been together so long already and still love each other immensely so there's no doubt that we'll be spending the rest of our lives together.

I have been dating my boyfriend for 8.5 years, and still no ring. It's hard when I have seen friends who have only been dating a couple of years get engaged and married, yet still not that time for me. I try to tell myself we are at different spots in our lives than other couples, and our time will come. We have dealt with health issues and then my boyfriend going back to school, so it just was never the right time. Hopefully soon though! Thanks for posting!

It's always something, even when the proposal is over.

It seems like everyone around me is having babies and I'm last in line. My husband and I have talked about timelines and what is best for us. I have been trying to tell myself that I need to enjoy the "now" and stop worrying about catching up to other people. Great post.

I remember thinking DG was going to propose the first Christmas we were together, and I was consumed. And then I got over it. He proposed the following Christmas, and that's when I realized that the proposal happened when I was least expecting it. You're right about finding joy even when we're feeling negative. Seriously, beautiful post! xo
