According to Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus the word ultimatum means - a final offer or demand, as in negotiations.
Yesterday Brian & I were together for 7 years. I know what most of you are thinking, 7 years - where's the ring!?! Are you guys gonna get married?
I will tell you one thing - I'm happy; very, very happy! Do I want to get married? yes!! Will it happen? yes!! Am I going to give him an ultimatum? NO!! That's just not me!
I'm not one of those girls that will do that - and I know some of you may be thinking - you're getting older, you've been together for such a long time, yada yada yada!!! And It's easy to say it if your looking from the outside because it doesn't directly affect you! But things are much easier said then done!
What I do know is that I want him to propose to me because he wants to, not because he feels forced to because I might leave him! Who wants that? I know I don't! I know that I want to feel wanted! Who wants to look back and say - "my husband proposed to me because I put the smack down and gave him an ultimatum!"
You'll never know if he really wanted to marry you - or felt pressured to marry you!! When it happens it'll be right!
I think once I land a better paying job and Brian sells his building things will start to come around for us! It's hard because I've been getting hit in all different directions with the question "when?" "When is it going to happen?" And like I mentioned before, if I knew I'd let you know! People don't realize it's a little offensive - If I knew don't you think I'd share that info!?! And besides it's putting "getting engaged" on my brain!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr............
