Earlier the day before, when I stayed in the car while him and my daughter went into Blockbuster, I looked through our digital camera....and there was a picture of the ring and a picture of him in a tux on one knee....he put the pictures into an album and they were part of the presentation. Should I EVER let him know that I peeped that? I am pretty sure I should NEVER tell him. It was the most beautiful day of my life, and he gave my daughter (she was 12 at the time) a diamond ring, too. I was still in total shock when he proposed. I was totally, heavenly dazzzed.. Please answer carefully. I wanna do the right thing... ;-D Thanks!!

I wouldn't say any thing. If your man was sweet and loving enough to do that for you and your daughter.... Let him have his glory. You weren't snooping because as you said, the camera belongs to both of you. My husband just looked at me and said "I know what will P** your mother off." and threw the box into my lap. what he said was a joke of course. He then got down on one knee and asked the proper way. He even asked my parents first!

Just tell him the truth. It sounds like you accidentally had a little extra time to gamble the idea of being married to him! So, who knows. I don't think he will be upset, besides, maybe he wanted you to see the pictures, or what ever. One thing I have learned being married, not that long though, never assume you know what he is going to think. Once you start doing that, then things get really messed up later. Trust me. He will respect you more for telling him the truth, rather than keeping it from him, besides he knows the pictures are on the camera doesn't he? Comm'on. Maybe the real suprise was your daughters diamond ring??? Ya Think??? Just talk to him... He is more reasonable than you might think... Honestly...

I don't think that you should tell him right now. It's so fresh, I think that he'll be sad that you weren't surprised. I guess I am just imagining, if it had been my husband, he would have really beat himself up over the fact that he left the pictures in the digital camera - and he would feel bad about it. So I guess, I just think that you should let it be. And years and years from now, you could mention it to him and it would be a funny thing for you both to laugh at.
Your proposal sounded beautiful - and your husband sounds wonderful!

No reason to tell him at all. Just because you are getting married does not mean that you have to tell him every single little thing. Plus he put so much work into what he did. I am sure he would be disapointed if he found out that you already had an idea that it was going to happen. Sounds like you met an amazing guy, good luck!

aaaww. He sounds really sweet. It sounds like he put alot of work and thought into it.
I hope a guy proposes to me like that some day. You are really lucky!!!
About telling him...? If it is going to stay in your head for a long time you are going to have to get it out sometime. You didn't really do anything wrong. But he did put alot of work into it. Maybe you could tell him that you saw the picture but you didn't really know what it was. Then after he proposed you realized what it was.

Some day when you have been together longer, it won't be a big deal to tell him. If you choose to tell him now, don't let it be taken wrong, like he screwed up, you were just being a nosy woman. hehe... For now, I wouldn't let the cat out of the bag, cuz I'm sure it was just as special for him, too, and he probly takes a great sense of pride in it... so don't "steal his thunder" for now... congrats and good luck, and never forget that it's work.

I wouldn't tell him. I mean, you said it was a camera used by both of you...it's not like you were just snooping. Let him think he totally surprised you. He sounds like an awesome man. I love that he gave your daughter a ring also. I'm agreeing with everyone else... don't steal his thunder!

It's like when you accidently see the Christmas gift your mom got you before the big day-whether you ''accidently" peeked at the receipt, or ''sneaked a peek'' in the closet where she hid the stuff. No, don't say anything, he'll be really dissapointed!! Just thank God for sending you a really amazing man who loves you and your daughter. And congratulations!

Oh, dont spoil his fun...you can tell him later, and you can laught about it together....My husband planned a surprise birthday party for me, but my mom could not keep quiet...so I went through the day pretending I did not know about it...I still remember the look on his face when he saw me 'surprised'....Its worth holding the fact of discovery to yourself...for a bit still...By the way, upon reading this, I decided this is the moment to tell my hubby that I knew about the party...He was surprised...we just laughed and it was another moment to remember for life...
Enjoy your 'surprise'....and best wishes...

I wouldn't ever tell him, what will it hurt to keep it a secret, if i go via the trouble to make something special for some one and then they found out before hand, i would feel disappointed.
How wonderful that he included your daughter ,sounds like a keeper.....and congratulations
