How could I make my bf know that if he proposes one day I would like it to be with a ring (I don't care if it's not expensive) just because of its symbolism, without actually telling him directly?

Well, I guess when watching TV and Movies and the subject of engagement is shown you can make comments about how romantic the proposal was, or criticise it when no ring was presented. I don't think you have to worry though, few men would think of proposing without a ring unless they were concerned they did not know your taste of jewellery (you can always show him your taste at some point by commenting on jewellery of all kinds that you like), or perhaps ring size. Ultimately though, you may find that even if he does not present a ring when he proposes - you actually wouldn't care when the time came and you were so swept up in the fact that he had just proposed to you =) If not, then that may indicate something...

Slip it into regular conversation. If you see someone propose in a movie, or on television while he is there, make a comment like "proposals with engagement rings are so romantic", or similar. OR, you could just come right out and tell him.

if you are not willing to tell him what you want how are you going to have a successful marriage...playing games and mindreading won't do it.

Why does it have to be about you. Don't you think he has an ideal of proposing? It is about both of you. What if it is not with a ring. Will you be disapointed because you had the wrong expectations? Will you blame him for trying something more original? Is the fact that he proposes not enough for you? Does it really have to be on your terms? Or can you let it slide and take him and his proposal for what they are?
