He might just start talking nonsense! That's what happened when my boyfriend first told me that he was in love with me. Just take your time to feel him out and see what his aim is, if you love him then go for it. But don't jump into anything, always think b4 you act!

If something is telling you to wait, then wait. If he really wants to marry you-he'll wait too. Trust your gut.

yes it seems as though you are rushing a bit! just because you fooled around doesn't mean you are prepared to get married. and is he saying he wants to marry you to get into your pants? i would wait awhile before you make the commitment, because it sounds like it would be a failed marriage! wait atleast a year!

Who knows?  Maybe you guys really aren't ready to get engaged.  There's alot of pressure on couples when they get engaged.  People EXPECT that you're getting married pretty soon and they want to know a date and they want to know what you're planning for the wedding.  It sounds like your man shouldn't have promised something that he wasn't sure about.  It's unfair to say that "by this date we will get engaged" because things happen.  It doesn't necessarily mean that he doesn't want to get engaged, it just means what he said, you guys aren't ready.  Maybe there's financial reasons behind that.  But a really good solution to this problem (because I know you are disappointed) is if your boyfriend still wants to get engaged and married in the future....he should buy you a promise ring.  My boyfriend and I have been together for four years and we're not ready to get engaged or married yet either.  But a promise ring lets you and your friends and family know that you guys are planning to get married one day, just not right now.  I wear my promise ring on my left ring finger like an engagement ring and I'm very happy with it.  I think you would be too.  Sit tight dear, you'll get married one day.

I am actually one of those girls that has been engaged for years (2 to be exact). We got engaged before I finished my undergrad degree and decide to wait until I finished my masters. Anyway, it seems to me that just as long as you and your boyfriend have similar life goals, marriage may not need to be rushed into. Maybe you should wait until after you are done with school. Then you will have more money and time to plan your wedding. At the risk of scaring him away, I think that you should at least sit down and have a serious conversation about where you both see each other in the next 5 years. Having a frank conversation about your goals will help you to determine whether he is genuine when he says that you are the one, or if this is simply a ploy he uses to avoid confrontation or a possible break up. Remember that a marriage is life long commitment. It isn't something you should try to squeeze between school semesters out of convenience.

He knows, you know, you both know that is going to happen. You just have to be patient and wait. He knows that you are the one for him and if you have already discussed marriage and children, then it's a clear indication that it's going to happen soon.\n\nMen that don't commit won't even mention the "m" word and will back off at the minimum indication of getting too close or too serious. He is not scared about discussing marriage with you because you are the one for him. \n\nDon't set deadlines or ultimatums or conditions for it to happen, they are NOT necesary. Accorduing to what you wrote, he is planning on doing it so don't spoil his plans by becoming frustrated and impatient.\n\nMost couples get engaged by their second anniversary, besides, Christmas, New years and Valentine's day are around the corner too, you might be in for a surprise.\n\nMy advice to you is to wait until your second anniversary before becoming anxious. It's not necesary for you to feel this way, you have the perfect man, ther perfect relationship, so don;t ruin it by becoming irritated. \n\nHe will ask you and there is no question about it, wait a little bit more... proposals are way more romantic when they are a surprise and men really love plan something special and having the perfect ring ... let him give you what you deserve ...let him surprise you and enjoy the relationship. \n\nHe is THE ONE sweetie... be patient.\n\nCongratulations and good luck!

He will ask you to marry him so that he can spend the rest of his life with you. You, in turn, will want to spend the rest of your life with him. He will consider your happiness to be more important than his, and you will consider his to be more important than yours.

It depends on your relationship.  My husband told me the first time we went out that he was going to marry me.  He asked me officially 4 months later.

I say, propose to him, and if he accepts, go looking for rings together.  Many wedding rings have engagement rings that fit or go together.  By shopping together, you'll get his input on what looks nice and what he'd like for you to have.  If you want to buy him a ring as a surprise, go ahead!  Who has to stick to anything traditional?  Whatever you may feel makes you happy- GO FOR IT!!

He says he loves you but won't propose right?  How long are you gonna wait?  Maybe he has no intention of marrying you.  You need to give him an ultimatum and quick.  You would be broken hearted if he breaks up with you and marries someone else.  Don't waste anymore of your time. \nThe same thing happend to my cousin.  She was with her boyfriend for 16 years, had two kids and still no ring.  Last year they broke up and this year he got married to someone else.  Don't waste your time.  If he wanted to marry you he would have already.  You have his child.  Get an answer or move on!\n\nGood Luck!

if he talks about you non stop and always together and when your not hes driving his friends crazy about you.I doubt theres anyone else.If friends say hes going to ask u to marry him maybe his actions u are talking about because maybe hes nervous to ask you or maybe he thinks you will say no.Thats probaly the change you are referring to.If you have questions talk to him about his actions and ur concerns

See if he introduces you to his mom, and how he does it. See how he relates to her. Watch that movie "Monster in law" with him and if he laughs or cringes. You'll know if he's the one by subtle hints. Buy a wedding magazine and see if he freaks out by it. Ask him how he sees his life in five years, what his goals are. There are ways of finding out without being obvious and pushy. Good luck!

Oh, poor guy... Just listen to what you're saying: you're basically TRYING TO MAKE HIM marry you. With that kind of attitude, I don't think that guy will marry you without doubting himself whether this relationship will work. If you try to push him here, what else does he have to expect, once you're married and live together? He won't have a second of freedom to breathe - that's what you're telling him.\nDon't get frustrated. If he doesn't propose just yet - he's got a reason to do that. Either he is trying to make a surprise for you, or maybe, he is still trying to figure out how will this whole marriage thing work. If you think he's not really planning to propose - then why in the world do you insist on him to do that? If he does plan to propose and waits for the right moment, you're pushing that moment farther and farther away, because you're thinking about it all the time, and he can't propose to you by surprise if that's all you think about. Maybe, he's been carrying a ring in his pocket for weeks now. But when you two meet.... "Hi, honey, when are you going to propose to me?" -" Oh, yea, I was just going to do that..." Sweet surprise, isn't it? Give him time and space, let him get ready. It's a big step in both of your lives. And it's not every day you get married.\nBtw... Me and my gf have known each other for almost 3 years. And yet I still haven't proposed to her (even though we too talked about marriage many times). We are still figuring out each other, trying to understand the relationship better and soften out sharp egdes, which have a potential of ruining our relationship. Once we both think we've got to know each other well enough, then we'll start making plans of a wedding. Until then, we enjoy each others' company and get to know ourselves really well. One thing neither of us wants to happen is to find some really bad surprise about another person when we're already married. Way too many relationships brake up because they started too quickly. If people in those relationships would get to know each other before dating - maybe they'd never want to date another person and save tons of nerves and time.

that's just it,you do not know.and since none of us can know him we do not know either,however if your boyfriend loves you enough to want to be your life mate,he will get around to asking you.

Ask him to marry you. Explain that you don't wish to invest any more time in a relationship that isn't going anywhere. If he loves you, he will say yes. If he says no, you've saved yourself some wasted time. Good luck either way.
