I travelled to New Zealand with Josh 3 years ago (and OZ too) and it was amazing!!! How exciting for you!
But I hear what you are saying about BF and I guess it sounds like he is not that into you. (Have you read that book? It's good).
If you gave him his space and he is still noncommittal - it might be better to cut your losses now than to continue in something that is not going anywhere. But only you know where you want to go.
I felt this way about Josh for a while. We were (are) great together but I kept hoping for a ring. Still don't have one but we bought a lovely house together so in a lot of ways - that's more of a commitment (in my mind). So I have given thoughts of a ring up for the most part. After all - what did my first ring mean anyway? My H was gone in a heartbeat.
So - decide how and with whom you see yourself spending your Twilight years and that might give you some answers.
