[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old are you two?

Why do you feel like you’re not ready to make a life long commitment? Is it something about her, or something about commitment?[/quote]

OP here. I’m in love with and see a future with her. I’ve never thought about marrying a woman before I met her. It’s still just scary because [b]my family doesn’t believe in divor[/b]ce and it’s a lifelong commitment. I don’t feel like there is a rush when it’s a decision that can determine the rest of your life. [/quote]

That's baloney.  You shouldn't get married because you  need to get away from your controlling family. Seek therapy because you are too enmeshed.[/quote]

OP here. I’m a catholic. They are not controlling. Many people don’t take marriage seriously but I do. Too many people get married with the idea they can just divorce in 10 or 20 years. That’s not what I want for my life or my future kids. They deserve a two parent household with happy parents. [/quote]

OP, I also don’t believe in divorce. DH and I took dating seriously. Go to therapy for yourself and/or couples counseling. The more therapy you do before you get engaged, the more it will pay off during your marriage. If therapy breaks you up, you are never meant to be together. It also signals to your girlfriend that you’re not stringing her along. You’re contemplating something serious. [/quote]
