Trust that after you've hinted to your partner that you're ready to be engaged, they will propose to you when they are ready to propose to you.
Have An Honest Conversation
There are no tricks involved in having an honest conversation with your partner. It's important to sit down and talk about your future together, what you both want or don't want, etc. When having this conversation, one thing you don't want to do is to try and set a specific date for the wedding. This conversation is not necessarily about the wedding but if there will even be one later down the road. Basically it's to make sure you're both on the same page.
