Amy Taylor needs to complete some goals!
When he gets a job and can afford a ring getting engaged is first priority, so me helping him more than ever to get a job will also help me out!
How I did it: When I originally posted "Getting Engaged" on 43 things, I was pretty much waiting for my boyfriend at the time to propose marriage. Turns out, he dumped me last July for someone else (and on MSN messenger to boot). One month later, I went out on a date, to pick myself up after the horrible break up. Turns out, the first person I met ended up being the love of my life. We took it slow at first, since we had both ju… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Dated for almost 4 years! We had been talking about it on and off for quite a while, but he was unemployed and i was supporting us both. we didn't have the money. then he got his tax refund and surprised me by using it to buy the ring! it was the most romantic thing ever!!

How I did it: Domi and I went skiing this weekend. We went up to the top of the ski slope and he wanted us to stop and look at the beautiful view of the Alps.He asked me if I was happy with him. He said he was happy with me. He asked me if I wanted to be happy with him forever. And then he asked me 'Will you?" First I said, "are you serious?" And then he said "Will you marry me?"I'd started crying at that point and said, "Of COURSE!" He had had rings m… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I have kind of been nagging my boyfriend of 4 years the past year now. I thought he would do it last march but he just did jan 17. we went to Beaufort NC (like in the notebook) and were walking up the main road going in shops. then we went to a little gazebo by the water. he proposed to me there as the sun was setting. He already had dinner reservations at the cutest resturaunt. It was a simple and perfect day! Read how I did it…
How I did it: We've been together six years so it seems a natural progression... We went on holiday to New York at the beginnging of December 08. We did the usual touristy things and ended up on top of the Empire State Building. It was up there he proposed, and had there not been so many people I would have jumped into his arms when I said YES! Read how I did it…

I was dating Steve for about 3 years and on December 27, 2008 he took me out on a private horse drawn carriage ride through the Christmas lights display on the Chesapeake Bay. He was all cuddly and nervous, so I had a feeling something was coming, lol… but he didn’t propose on the carriage ride!! So we went home and I was thinking of how romantic the carriage ride was and what a surprise he managed to pull off. When we were at home, we continued our date night with champagne and a movie. During the movie, Steve kept getting up and pacing… and I kept asking him what his deal was, lol. He came over to me, got down on one knee and told me that he loved me more than I could know, loved my son and wanted to spend the rest of his life with us. He was crying as he asked me to marry him and I couldn’t contain my excitement. Of course I said yes and I can’t wait until the wedding!!!

I met my boyfriends two daughters for the first time this weekend… it went really well and I think it definitely puts us closer to being engaged. I mean prior to meeting the girls I would have found it very hard to imagine meeting them the first time as his wife or even his finacee. That would have been much too much for a child to process…
I thought I wanted to get engaged. I know I want to be married and have children, and my biological Cuckoo has been singing under her breath for a few years already, and I’ve been with my bf for five years now, so it all seemed to be adding up…
but as our 5 year anniversary began approaching last month, we started having all these intense conversations about the future. One issue that I’ve had for a while is that J and I rarely even TALK about the future, and when we did, it was something I brought up and J had little to say about.
Our convo’s revealed that J is really not ready for marriage, and doesn’t even really imagine kids when he thinks about the future. He wants kids, but they are way more abstract for him now than they are for me.
And he said that he’s not even sure that I want to be married to HIM, I just want to be married. Of course, I denied that vehemently at the time, but lately I’ve been wondering… J is so much of a child still himself…am I really prepared to take him as he is – for LIFE? Do we really want the same things FROM life? Can I really put my roots down here in NYC? Do I want to raise kids here?
lots of issues to be resolved. I want to run away to Spain to think it all over for a few months…
