My bf and I are in a serious relationship & have been dating for 2 years in September [so currently 22 months]. I'm 20, he's 21, both in college graduating in 1 1/2 yrs. He has a job a few hours away this summer, and I visited him last weekend.
My mom, bf & I went shopping, & he kept saying something about a certain jewelry store. Along the lines of, "I'm surprised you don't want to go into THAT store."
So we do & he goes straight to the engagement rings. He asks what I like & then asks the sales associate what the prices are on a couple different rings. [in front of my mother mind you]
Long after the shopping that same day, he says, "This question has been in my head all day, i don't know.. would you like a bigger diamond with more color or a smaller diamond with less color??"
He sometimes talks in terms of the future - "if we get married..," or "if we have kids.." [He knows I'm interested in marrying him]
What do you think? [I'm not sure if he's saving $ for a ring]

We do not talk in terms of "when" bc it will not be those terms until we are engaged.

I feel like if it's going to happen soon, it will on or around our anniversary. I don't want to rush it, but it's been on my mind so maybe these answers will keep me at ease and not worrying/thinking about it. Thanks guys!!

What do you want him to say??!! You expect him to do some big public proposal, knowing that you might deny him?
The traditional proposal is stupid, and a product of attitudes that the man makes the decisions for the couple.
He is trying to engage you in a mature discussion. You have to know whether your plans for kids are the same. Also, he needs to know how important a big ring is to you: its about more than the ring, its about attitude. He's also feeling out your parents. Do not assume he knows what you are thinking. Talk with the guy. You are both young with great opportunities ahead. If he's your guy forever, start planning. If you can't openly talk about these issues, then wait.

Looks like what is doing is working. He is getting you thinking by doing this with you and infront of you.
I say it will be soon as well.
My brother did the exact same thing. He is having a ring made and saving the money. That might be the situation. We'll see!
I wish you two the best.

Why don't you just calm down and wait and see what happens. Don't rush this.
