[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I definitely want to marry. I thought the normal next steps were to move in, live together for 3-6 months, and get engaged. She is not “ an option”. I would ever live with someone I didn’t intend to marry. I can see it from her perspective now after reading the replies. I was always taught that you need to live with someone to see if you’re really compatible, and breaking up is easier than calling off an engagement. Now I know.

I want her to feel certain that this is the real deal. I want her to feel secure and know that we will get married. I will start looking at rings. I don’t want to lose her over something dumb since I planned to propose in the fall anyway. [/quote]

Wow, I think this is the most willing I’ve ever seen an OP to see the other side of an issue and consider changing their mind after doing so.  I admit, I’m one of the pp’s who was skeptical that you were ready for commitment, but I stand corrected.[/quote]

OP here. I knew I was going or propose in the fall after living together, so a couple of months sooner isn’t that much of a change.

I have never lived with a girlfriend. I told my girlfriend months into the relationship I would only ever live with a woman if I knew I was going or marry her. She shouldn’t doubt it. I’ve never given her any indication I wouldn’t marry her. [/quote]

Talk is cheap. The biggest indicator that you can give her is a ring. Take her ring shopping this weekend.[/quote]
