My younger sister just announced her engagement right in the time period where I believe my boyfriend of 3 years was going to propose to me. Now I feel that if he asks me in the near future, everyone will think we were copying my sister and stealing her glory. We've been planning our wedding for years now, but waiting for the right moment. It's an open topic, and he has hinted that he would ask me officially sometime in the next few months. But, like I said, now it looks bad. I feel like my sister ruined our timing. How long should he wait to ask me? If he proposed soon, should I hide it for a few months and announce it at a later date to my family? Also, my sister has yet to set a date, she said "at least a year." Should I worry about setting our date a certain number of months away from her unknown date? I don't want her to feel like I'm butting in on her glory, but at the same time, I don't want to wait forever.
