Ok, I have been with my boyfriend for almost 4 1/2 years and we have a 2 year old son. I really want to get married. I don't just want to live together any more. Should I give him a timeline...get engaged by this time or I move out? I really need some advise on this.

I am almost in the same situation as you. My boyfriend doesn't seem to want to take that next step too, even though we have been together for 3 years and have a 2 month old daughter. I think after so many years of being together and living together he should know by know if he wants to marry you. If there is a reason why he doesn't ask what it is and try to see if you can work through it. Because if he is not willing to commit to you at all and it's what you want then your going to be miserable in the future. Why settle for a guy that does not want to commit to you in marriage when there surely is a guy out there that would gladly marry.Even though you have a child together you shouldn't settle for being common law couple.

Hi mgallup,


Are you happy overall?
