My girlfriend (F) (21) and I (M) (25) have been together for 9 months. I know that may seem too short of a time span for most to consider getting engaged. We love each other immensely and know we want to spend our lives together. We have both been through long relationships in the past. This is the first time either of us have felt a serious desire to tie the knot. We have started to talk about getting married. She is an amazing and opinionated person. She wants to propose to me or propose at the same time. Both of which I am very much open to. However I don't know how to handle this situation. I am so eager for this to happen! How do I control this anticipation? I'm on the verge of asking her myself but I want to respect her wishes. Do I buy a ring or give her a different token of my love? Do I help in planning this or just stay patient and frantic until the day it happens? I dont want to scare her away or make her reconsider. I give major kudos for all you ladies that have to handle this.
<bot>: My gf wants to propose  to me which I am estatic about. I need advice on how to handle it correctly. Thanks.
