[quote=Anonymous]You are three years into a relationship with someone.  You are mid-twenties.  He has not yet proposed and you clearly wish he would have by now.  You are a mixed race couple.  His family has a history of racist behavior but are working on that.  He has a relationship with his mother that troubles you, though he seems to be working on it.  You feel like you are in competition with the woman whom you want to be your mother in law.  You feel the need to prove yourself to her.  You feel the need to prove yourself to him!

This is not a "perfect" anything - family, man, relationship, etc...

Doesn't mean it might not be the permanent relationship for you, but you need to be clear-eyed about the challenges, and the time required to work some of these things through, and the patience and maturity it will take to do those things.

You are 27.  You may feel ready for all of this but do not rush it.  If it's meant to be you will figure it out (together).  You have LOTS of time to live your life - don't make mistakes just because you were in a hurry.[/quote]
