If you are happy with your boyfriend, chances are that you would like to marry him. The question is: Does he want to marry you, too? You can guess all you want, but you would never know. What if he has already bought an engagement ring to propose to you?
Look out for these signs:
1. He’s Consulting Your Friends Privately
A man needs some help to plan the perfect proposal. He can’t do it all by himself, and who can help him out better than your friends? They know you so well; they know the things that you like and the things that you don't like. He needs to work closely with them to ensure that the proposal is memorable. Of course, it is meant to be a secret, so he can't tell you that he is getting help from them. He would also tell your friends not to tell you about it.
If they really want the proposal to be special and have the right effect, they won't tell you. So if you find out that your partner has been speaking with more than one of your friends behind your back, you need to relax. It is not what you think; they are working together to give you a perfect proposal that would probably sweep you off your feet.
2. Increased Discussions Regarding the Future
If he loves you, he would speak with you about the future from time to time, but now he's talking about it more frequently. You can tell that he's really interested in having a future with you. He wants to know what you think about family, the kind of home you would like to have, the number of kids, and how you want to raise them. He is bouncing ideas off you just to understand where you are at mentally.
If you notice this increase in interest in family-related issues, he probably has an engagement ring for you somewhere. He is just trying to make sure that he is making the right decision and that both of you are on the same level. He wants to know that both of you are a team because it wouldn't make sense if you want totally different things. He’s having those conversations to be sure the ring he bought will be put to good use and that he is not wasting his time.
3. Deepening Bonds With Your Family
If he's going to marry you, he's marrying into your family. You didn't drop from the sky; you have parents and probably siblings. If both of you are going to be married, he will have them in his life, too. It's in his best interest to get to know them and grow closer, so it will be easier for him to relate to them when you guys eventually get married.
If he's suddenly showing so much interest in your family, asking questions about your parents and siblings, he just wants to know what they are like. He wants to know how to build a relationship and how to appeal to them so they like him more. If you notice that interest, don't freak out. Now you know what he's up to. He probably has a ring for you somewhere, and that is why he is trying to get to know your family even better. However, ask him the right questions before accepting to marry him.
4. A Sudden Shift Toward Aggressive Saving
He probably was saving before now, but now he's doing it even more. You know why? There's a wedding around the corner, and someone has to pay the bills. As a man, he can't just ignore it or sit down and fold his arms. He has to show up, make that money, and spend it on your wedding. It's not just about the wedding; it's also about the marriage.
We live in a society where men aren't the only ones taking responsibility. Women also bring something to the table, but men still have a role to play. For that to happen, he needs to have good savings. If all of a sudden he's telling you, "I need to save, we can't afford to spend so much money on things that we don't really need," that's a sign. He is planning toward marriage, and for him to be so serious about it at this time, he has probably bought your engagement ring already.
5. Your Inner Circle Is Acting Strange
They are up to something. They are planning your proposal, and because they don't want you to know about it, they are hiding the details. If you know these people well, you will notice that something is off. They’re not acting the way they normally would. Is your man acting strange all of a sudden? It’s not necessarily in a bad way, but it's like they're sneaking around and not talking as much as they should.
If your closest friends are acting strange, your proposal might just be closer than you think. He's acting that way because he doesn't want you to figure him out. He doesn't want to say so much because he knows he might let the cat out of the bag.
Your friends don't want to talk too much with you because they might let it slip. That strange behavior is a sign that your man has bought an engagement ring and is waiting for the perfect time to go on one knee.
Marriage proposals are so memorable and have become a big thing in society. As a woman, you most likely want your man to put up that memorable proposal and sweep you off your feet. If you notice these signs, he might have just bought an engagement ring and is waiting for the perfect time to propose. I’m hoping that the proposal goes well and that you say yes.
