My brother is coming over tonight to talk to H and I about something to do with Christmas, but it's a secret from his GF... it seems like a Christmas proposal is looming... he showed me a ring a few weeks ago, but he has before so...
He and his GF are both 22 and have been dating for 5 years. They always seem to be fighting... I posted something about them being on the rocks the week before our wedding when his GF messaged me saying she may not be there because her and my brother had been having problems for a while...
I just feel they are not ready... GF is still in college in RI while my brother works here on the island... they are planning to move in together in May and live like that for a year, but then GF might be heading to Boston for Grad School and wants my brother to move with her for two years and then come back to the island... with the job market the way it is now, why would he leave a good paying job, he might not find something in Boston, plus there is no way to know if in two years his job will still be there...
Also I am a firm believer in living together before marriage...
I am just nervous. I know they love each other, but I want to be supportive, I love my brother and we are very close. I just don't want to have the wrong reaction if it is indeed a proposal.
Yikes... he is here!
Let you know what happens.
Re: Oh Crap. Update!
Well I was right, good thing, so I could prepare myself for my reaction!
He wanted to talk to H about how to talk to her dad, and then how to propose which, he wants to do between Christmas and New Years.
They wouldn't get married for a while like, 2-3 years so that makes me feel better
He seems really happy so I just want to support him, plus H and I are the first people he has told, so it makes me feel honored he came to us first.
Aww...I totally know how ya feel...I was totally unsure and still have my hesitations about my bro and his fiancee...but...alas...they are doing the right thing and living together now..on their own for the first time...just got a puppy..OMG remind me to post pics hehe...and are planning for Jan 24th,2015....sooo yes..it is stressfull and they ARE going to have issue and make mistakes and regrets down the road..but belive me..just be the happy sister and be happy for them...it has made it much easier for me...I will be there for them everystep of the way (I am her one MOH..her sister is too)....so I have to haha..but I am really happy for them
