I started dating this guy just a little over a month ago. A few nights ago we went with a friend of mine to get her ring cleaned at Zales, and we were being silly trying on engagement rings just for fun. My guy watched every single one I tried on, and since then, he keeps asking me little questions about what I like in jewelry, and what size ring I wear. It's pretty obvious what he is doing, and he made one comment that startled me - "If I could afford it, you'd have a huge rock on your finger right now." But then he laughed and said he was kidding. Is this a little fast, and do you think he really means what he is saying?

yeah honey it is very possible! My brother is getting married TODAY and he and the girl have only known each other one month..... My hubby and i talked about marriage and knew we were getting married the 1st night we went out (we dated for a year after). It is possible for it to work out...but there are very few that it will make it work out. You really have to truely love each other.

A little fast....a lot fast. Kidding around is one thing, but if you have just begun dating, and have only known each other a month; that is a bit soon to be even kidding about an engagement. He may have been just trying to figure out more of your likes and dislikes, so it may be harmless and kidding. If he is serious, you need to back off from this relationship, fast. No matter how great you are getting along with each other, most people generally do not know enough about each other after a month, to even be discussing engagement rings. A lottttttt fast, be very careful. If the two of you are going to have a long lasting relationship that leads to an engagement and marriage, you have to have a relationship first. If you are thinking that this is a little fast, your inner voice, whatever God you believe in, and/or your women's intuition is telling you that this is not right. Good luck and have a good day.

It is very fast.It is also sweet. You take control and slow it down some. Just redirect the conversation if it starts sliding in that direction.Don't play any more ring games. You got the info. you wanted for now. Be happy and enjoy a long and happy "courtship" it the hottest,most fun part of marriage,if that is where you are headed. Have fun Miss Lovee Dovee

How could anyone know but the two of you? Hello?
I believe in love at first sight. This kind of thing is possible. But I feel bad for "this guy", because you obviously don't feel the same thing toward him. Someone is thinking of buying you an engagement ring and you refer to him as "this guy".
I'm sure this question reveals a side of you that "this guy" is not seeing.

Whooooooaaahhh Nelly! Yes it's too soon! You should talk to him about it. People do stay engaged for a long time before they ever get married, but a month!!!! I've been dating my man for 2 years and have known him for 17, yet we're still learning things about each other...Just take it slow if he does mean what he's said.

there is not any want to have a 2-3 365 days engagement because the engagement time is for making plans the marriage. i might want to assert you need to bypass in at the same time for yet another 6 months. in this time you receives to understand one yet another lot more desirable proper. i imagine you need to continuously bypass in with someone before you marry them because authentic hues shine once you're with the guy day in and day vacation. Have your first strive against in case you've not already. in case you want to bypass ahead shifting in at the same time is definitely ahead. once you stay at the same time for a lengthy time period your households will maximum in all probability be more desirable receptive to the idea of you adult men getting married. i'm particular you'll have some objections to you shifting in at the same time yet when it truly is what you adult men want then bypass for it. they're going to except it in the authentic do not hassle. Then get engaged for a 365 days or a touch more desirable..sufficient time to plot the marriage and then get married. those who get engaged and then stay engaged for 5 years are basically dropping time. they say they prefer to make certain the subsequent step in dedication yet being engaged is truly basically time to plot the marriage. when you're not from now on making plans then you definately truly are not taking the subsequent step in dedication. So i might want to assert bypass in at the same time for a lengthy time period then get engaged after 6 months or more desirable. in case you truly imagine 1 yet another is the only then there is not any harm in waiting and attending to understand one yet another a touch more desirable =)

Well it is a little fast, but there's nothing really wrong with that unless its too fast for you. I would only suggest if you two do get engaged that you wait at least a year to marry. Also, if your religion/morals/parents allow it I would absolutely suggest living together for at least a year before you get married.

Many guys think that women want a man who
can give them diamonds,furs,cars,ect........
Note that when he said he wished he could
give you a big rock that he didn't attach the
words of,: marriage,wedding,engagement to
it? He may be feeling like you want a ring or
a guy who can buy you such nice things as
diamond rings,ect........ but he doesn't sound
like he's wanting to marry right now to me.
Are you sure that you don't want him to ask
you to marry him? It sounds like you do,but I
could be wrong?
Don't worry about him unless things get deep,
like he actually tells you he wants you to marry
him or proposes,ect.........

Run like the devil. You need to date at least a year before you get engaged to anyone.
