Does this sound like pre-proposal behavior?

A female Canada age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hi everyone, so next week is my boyfriend and I's 1yr. anniversary. We get along so great and I've never been happier. We are going away for the weekend to a hotel. I'm just curious if any of his behaviours,words etc. could be indicative of him proposing?

He has said my gift is a combo of our anniversary/ christmas gift as it is 1 big thing, I won't get it til Christmas. He has been more cautious about spending his money saying that he doesn't have alot to spend these days with "having to buy christmas gifts and such". He asked me last week about "where we'd go for OUR honeymoon" --and he added in his ideas about where he'd want to go too. We have discussed wedding things for months now, moreso what the theme would be, colours, where the ceremony and reception would be...so that part isn't really new. He talks about "if WE live together in the future". All his discussions revolve around WE/US/OURS. I've also noticed that he has become more touchy/feely in the past month, he was never one to have his arm around me/hold my hand much but I notice he does that alot now. He is a very shy guy and it took him time to be comfortable with my parents...but I have also noticed in the past month he is suddenly getting shy around them again.

This could all be coincidental, combined with me hoping that's what these behaviours are for. Does this sound like pre-proposal behaviour?

sorry for the delay people.

It was a diamond, necklace. It was beautiful, on a white gold chain, princess cut which is my favourite.

We're at the 1.5yr mark now almost. Still waiting on the ring :)

I had something similar happen to me. He used all the same terms, we talked about it all the time, and he hinted that it would be a gift I'd want to show off and whatnot. It was not what I had anticipated, but I loved it none the less. Just to avoid being disappointed don't think about it too much even though the possibility is there that it could be. Carpe Diem!

Best of luck and let us know what happens!!~
