[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 1 year anniversary with my girlfriend is coming up shortly, and I’m being hounded by family and friends to propose to her. My parents have told me to not let her get away, as well as many of my closest friends. My girlfriend and I have had a great relationship but I’m just not ready. I love her but I feel 1 year is too short to make a lifelong commitment, and I don’t see the rush. [/quote]

What do you need to know to make a decision? What are you doing to collect that information? 
Same questions for your girlfriend.

Are you cohabitating? 
If you break up, sooner or later, you'll be starting that 1+ year clock over again.

It's easy to dream of a future that you aren't working to achieve, right until it's too late. [/quote]

OP here. We just need more time, and ideally, I want to live together. My brother and his now wife moved in together after getting engaged, and almost called off their wedding when they realized they couldn’t live well together. They love each other and eventually worked it out after therapy.

I think the next step is moving in together and us living as a couple and being around each other almost 24/7. [/quote]
