advice on getting him to propose


Recommended Posts

Okay please give it to me straight up!!!

 

I am 35 - he is 40

I have a 10year old girl - he no kids - never married (i was never married too)

 

we have been dating 2 years now

He tells me he is afraid of marriage - like it should have already happened tohim - he feels he is too old for it now also too old to ever have a child.

 

He loves my daughter - they are very close.

 

He is a bit jealous of my ex -he always brings up the bond i will have with him forever because of our child.

 

We broke up recently but got back together - he was depressed without me - he said.

 

He knows i want to get married - he told me to take it day by day please he said

I know he is scared - i also know he loves me

 

How do i get him to think positive about marriage?

all his friends are divorced and unhappy.

all my friends are still married and great.

I dont know what to do --- please help me!!!!

You have only been dating for 2 years, many people don't get married until even in 10 years! My sister and her boyfriend have been dating for 7 years and are still not married, though it may be because you are thinking deep into the age a bit. Just let him have time to think, 2 years is still a short time for planning to marry. In a few years he may realise he has the feelings to mrry you and he will when the time is right.
