Guys don't mention rings this casually, do they? Why would he do this at the wedding?

Question - (31 October 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 31 October 2011)
A female United States age 41-50, *ardia writes:

I was relaying things that happened at a wedding I attended Saturday to my boyfriend via text. The bride and groom entered the reception hall on a Harley.

My boyfriend sent a joking text asking if the bride's wedding ring was chrome. He then made the comment "I would prefer platinum..." very casually in passing. And I never said anything about rings in the first place.

Guys don't mention rings this casually, do they, especially knowing the wild thoughts of marriage that it can provoke in their girlfriends? Am I reading too much into it, or is it on his mind?

person12345 agony auntIt's really impossible to know what someone else is thinking. I think he may have just made the comment in passing, just trying to be funny. I wouldn't read too much into it.

k_c100 agony auntWell how long have you been together? Have you discussed marriage before? How serious is the relationship?

Without knowing the answers to the above questions it is hard to say, it could have just been a passing comment, I mean he has obviously thought about getting married and what type of wedding ring he would like - but he might be thinking years into the future here. He wasnt talking about engagement rings either so I wouldnt get too excited, this was a comment about the wedding band so its not like he is thinking about a ring to propose with, dont get too ahead of yourself!

If you could answer those questions I might be able to help further, if not good luck!

You could be reading too much into it . . . or it could be on his mind. It's tough to say without knowing him. Personally, I say a lot of things in passing and I could imagine me saying this to my GF and never meaning anything by it. Then again, I'm not your BF so I don't know his personality.

I think you should assume he just said it in passing unless you start getting more hints.
