[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the poster who said that the best path forward is premarital counseling, with a huge focus on compromise in decision making plus all the assumptions that each of you have baked in about how these next phases of your lives will go - and where your assumptions align with each other (and where they don't). OP, you are 34, you've been dating for 15 months and yet your plan is to wait an additional 15+ months before you get married. That's also at odds with a "have kids young" plan. Is there a world where she can speed up the start of grad school and begin this fall or in the spring? What if you eloped and got pregnant with kid 1 now, then took a break before kid 2? Or had two kids, then you took on primary parenting while she focused on grad school / career advancement? The bottom line is that you both have a million different ways to compromise - but you are only focused here on your plan and what you want.[/quote]
