[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have a law degree, and if you've practiced law, that tells me you know how to ask questions. Ask him specific questions, get the answers you need out of him. Does HE think he's stringing you along. Does he WANT to get married? If so, does he want to marry YOU? If he's not ready, what would make him ready? Does he want to take a break from the relationship (maybe that's what you need)? [/quote]

I disagree with this. OP already pays too much attention to her boyfriend's rationalizations and explanations. There is no reason really to allow him to bullshit more, it will just muddle the picture. He needs to set the date now, not explain why he can't set a date or what conditions need to be met etc etc. He is old enough, knows OP well enough and must be able to make a decision now.

OP, it looks like you were friends for some time before you started dating. How did that happen?[/quote]

The reason I said she should ask specific questions is that some men are only going to provide info specifically asked for. There's a big difference between "i'm not ready to get married" and "I'm not ready to marry you." [/quote]
