[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am watching this happen to my sweet cousin right now.
31 years old, moves in with boyfriend after 1 year of dating, now it's over 2 years of dating. 
No proposal, every holiday and weekend getaway she thinks she is getting engaged, and then disappointment.

The relationship is great, she is happy EXCEPT for the fact he is not proposing. They talk about marriage, yes he says he would like to be married and have kids, but no ring. And no reason to break up because everything is great.

Awful.[/quote]

I was in a similar situation except that it was everyone else thinking we'd get engaged at this magical 2 year mark.  Instead, now hubby and I had really good, open communication and I knew he needed more time.  He was able to articulate to me why he needed that time. The hardest part was telling everyone else to STFU and mind their biz!  Sure enough 4 months later he was ready and asked if we could go ring shopping.  (I also knew he had no confidence in his taste and there was no way he was buying a ring we hadn't picked out together). 5 years to almost the day we met we are married and expecting our first baby.  Everyone is different and needs to be able to communicate with their partner to make sure they are on the same page IMHO. [/quote]
