Guest Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Alright so I have been reading what others have been writing..and Since some of you had help received I want to get some help back too! OKay... I have been dating my BF for over 3 years. I am 24 and he is 25. I recently moved 250 miles away from him for work. The past 2 years he has said that we are going to get married...but no ring, NOTHING! I bring it up and he gets mad. He says...the day I stop thinking about marriage is the day he will propose! I am a girl and I can stop thinking about it.... SInce I have moved about a month ago he has been really cute and loving to me. Calling me, texting or emailing me whenever he gets a chance. I really do love him and want to be with him, but I am not sure how much longer I can wait!! Someone help and tell me if they have been in this situation or know someone who has and what they did!! Thanks!!
Sally00 Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Okay. My boyfriend and I talk about marriage all the time. We're practically engaged... not OFFICIALLY though. I don't care about a ring. It's just a ring. The more you're pushy, the more he pulls away. Maybe he's just waiting for the right moment. Let him be the guy and come up with the perfect moment. It's hard to find the right moment when the girl keeps telling him she wants a ring already. Just waaaaait. I am a girl, too. So being a girl isn't an excuse, lol. Love him. Don't leave him over something silly like this.
norajane Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 He could be wondering if you want to get married or if you really want to be married to him. If you keep bringing it up all the time, he might get the impression that the ring and 'getting married' is more important to you than the quality of your relationship. No guy wants to marry a woman who's a nag or who is anxious all the time or is pushing him to get married. He will propose when he is ready for a lifetime commitment and when he sees that you are happy with him and your relationship together. That's what he means by he'll propose when you forget about marriage. He wants to see that you enjoy being with him first.
julesstarr Posted September 13, 2006 Posted September 13, 2006 Thank you, thank you.... Just those two messages have really changed my thinking... I cant wait to see him and not say anything about marriage. It just might shock him!! Thanks for the advise!!
