How Did You Pump the Brakes on Engagement Ring Talk?

Hi all, obsessed with this forum and figured that I'd reach out for some genuine insight.

TLDR, I'm 30 and thoroughly in love with my partner. As we've moved into year 5 of our relationship and marriage/ wedding talk becomes more solidified along with future planning, I feel like I've put too much ~pressure~ on them to propose. I've always loved weddings (just ask the Pinterest boards I started 10 years ago), and I recently visited some jewelers in NYC to get a sense of the cuts, styles, etc. that favor me. However, I'm concerned I've talked too much about all things wedding and marriage, to the point where I'm starting to sound bitter for not having been proposed to already. I wonder if, just because I see marriage and engagement talk as a casual point of conversation, I've spoiled some of the fun. Would love to hear any advice on how you ladies have been able to rein yourselves in (if need be) and stop putting pressure on yourselves to be engaged ASAP.
