Ahh, don't be too hard on him! I think it's sweet! I wouldn't want the whole big romantic gesture bit - proposing in front of people, like in a restaurant etc, would not be my cup of tea at all, though some people love it. We were together 5 years and we went on holiday to Paris. Well I waited and waited and it never happened, so on the last day I cried and said you are never gonna propose, are you? He said he was going to do it some time towards the end of the year, maybe my birthday or Christmas, but seeing as I had suggested it why not just forget the proposal and get on with it! I said you're not getting out of it that easy, so we picked a ring when we got back, and he took me to our favourite beach and proposed by the waters edge with no one around but us, then took me out for a romantic meal with my new sparkler. Perfect!
