[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was sort of in your situation.

We dated 6 years and bought a house together before getting married.

The only difference was that I was the one that wanted to wait.

People said all the ignorant stuff you are hearing on this thread... he doesn't really want to marry you, why are you hanging on if he isn't making any moves, blah blah blah.

Anyway, what I don't understand is that we always talked about marriage... what, when, how... we just knew that there were some things in our life that we wanted to work out before we actually got married.

You are looking for a house, that is a commitment, he is committed.

Just say, "hey i've been thinking about with COVID, your job, etc when do you think is a good time to get married"

IN a year, 2 years, big wedding, small, spring/summer/fall.

I was never in a situation where I thought "I wonder if he will marry me" ... we were committed, we were working towards marriage, house, kids... there was not some watershed moment with a ring that pulled it all together.

It seems very unhealthy to me (not you everybody else on this thread) that you need a ring to know a man is committed to you.[/quote]

Easy for you to make all kind of comments when you were the one delaying things. Of course you never thought he wasn’t committed to you because he was ready to commit.  OP’s situation is the opposite and she wants marriage before kids. Your story only confirms what we’ve been all saying.[/quote]
