What do you do to keep your cool?
• Don't overwhelm him with premature wedding discussions. It can be intimidating if he's not only he asking for your hand, but he's also asking for a wedding
• Don't plan too much ahead of time. While it's fun to go online and pick a venue or design your favorite invitations, it can also make it harder on yourself. You can still bookmark a couple things and pine away, but remember to leave a little to the imagination.
• Don't let the M-word be your hot-button. When someone brings up marriage or you learn about someone's new engagement, don't let it send you into a tailspin. Remind yourself: Everyone's timing is different. We can all name someone who got a proposal after just a year of dating and others that waited a decade. If you start to feel like it may never happen, it's time to talk to your partner.
• Talk about it with your partner when you feel unsure or stressed. Men definitely aren't mind readers. They don't just know when something is hurting you. Don't keep it to yourself. Over time if you let it stew, you won't even know what you want anymore.
• Focus on you. You can never go wrong with a little personal-time. Go out with your friends. Pursue some of your own interests. Reaffirm who you are, what makes you happy, and what you need. Your partner can't read your mind, but you can.
