I ended up telling him last night about what happened and how I felt because he could tell something was a little off. We had a really good conversation and he told me that he got me a gold ring with diamonds on it just because I mentioned a while back wanting a cute everyday kind of ring and he got it as a display of his affection for me and something symbolic of our relationship. He mentioned the promise rings to try to divert attention away from asking for my ring size, but didn’t realize it could backfire. His intention was never about a promise ring, just about getting me something I was wanting. He’s too sweet!! We both apologized to each other for the miscommunication and misunderstanding and he reassured his commitment and love to me. We also talked about engagement expectations and he said he definitely does not want to wait 3 years.
TIL: Communication is key! I could not have thought for a better outcome and we both came away closer from this! Thank you to all those who gave me advice last night! I was too tired to reply back yesterday, but I appreciated it all!
