What do you want? You cannot read other people's minds. Focus on what you want. If you and your partner cannot meet somewhere where you feel you are comfortable and they say they are comfortable, move on.

Not stringing you along probably. Just doesn't want marriage or kids which is a choice some women make.

So... it depends whether you trust this person or not. But on DCUM, which is very socially conservative, of course it's going to look fishy.

My friend had a 30 year relationship with a man, starting in her 20's. They never married, never had kids and never lived together. She was faithful, he was not.

So what?

If you want to get married and have kids and that is not what she wants, then break up.

Not necessarily. But if you want different things then leave.

If you want incompatible things, it's not working out. It doesn't matter if she genuinely loves you or not.

Of course.

Don’t complain. It will literally never be better.
