Hi All,

I am new here and posted on another board I think. I then browsed around more and noticed this topic. So if anyone is reading this a second time, sorry to bore you!!

I am a mom to 2 children. I am 33 years old. I have been with my boyfriend for 2 years and I want to get married!!

We have been living together for almost our whole relationship. From the beginning, we just stuck together. I am in love with him!! We do have issues like any other couple, but I know we could make it together. My mom always told me "Everyone has faults, you just have to find the one whose faults you are willing to live with". I love that analogy (if that is correct term).

I want to know if anyone has any advice to getting him to propose to me? I don't want to 'trick' him or anything like that, I just want to see exactly how he feels about it and if it is something that he thinks about also. I want to do this without is seeming like I am asking him to ask me!! Does that make sense?

As I said, I have 2 kids already (not with him). I have also been dreaming of us having a child together. I am not wanting that to happen again in my life unless I am married. The issue with that is that I am worried about how long before it's too late. (for kids that is) (me 33, him 38!!)

Are we too old to have babies?????

Well, I will end this so that I can get it posted. Any advice is appreciated very much. If you need any more details to help give advice, I am open.

Thanks Again.

I don't think you and him are too old to have children at all. As far as the marriage thing, why don't you just be honest with him. Ask him what his thoughts are or how he feels about the idea of you two getting married.

Thanks. I am glad that you dont think that we are too old for babies.

I will try to open up and talk about it. How do you start a conversation like that? I once read that the best time to talk to a guy is at night when he's getting ready to go to bed. lol.

I would just tll him what you wnat in your future with him. And ask him what his plans for the future are with you.
Hopefully he will say, he does hope to marry you at somepoint.
It's natural to know where the relationship is heading, hopefully you both are looking in the same direction.

My friend asked her boyfriend, and she got the answer she wanted, he told her yes he did wanted to marry her, but he wants it to be a surprise, he knows how he wants to propose and he has as plan, but wants it to be a surprise.....

Good luck...
