How can you tell when your mate is about to propose?

Cupid’s Advice:

While most women are surprised when their partner pops the question, some are ready and well-prepared.  Here are a few ways you can tell when your man is about to propose:

1. He asks your opinion: When he casually asks for your opinion on restaurants or even on jewelry, it may be a sign that he’s about to pop the question.  He could be on a mission to find a special setting and the perfect ring.

2. Your rings are missing: If you find one of your rings missing one day, don’t panic.  Chances are, he’s taking the ring to a jeweler in order to find an engagement ring that will fit your finger correctly.

3. His behavior changes: If your partner is about to propose to you, he’s probably extremely nervous, excited or both.  You may be able to pick up on his changing behavior and mood swings.
