How Long Do I Wait for Marriage??
| Fri, 08-13-2004 - 11:26pm |
I am 26 and have been with my boyfriend for three years now. I was ready to become engaged after the first year, but he was not. And he's still not. Every time I bring up the topic he becomes defensive and irritated, even angry if he's in a sour mood. However, when I finally say, "Are we EVER going to get married???" He assures me passionately that we will, but just not yet. He has a million excuses why now is a bad time, from money to that "marriage is just an empty institution anyway" bull. How does a girl know if a man intends to marry her, or if she is just being strung along? Please advise me!!!

He already told you that, in his opinion, "marriage is just an empty institution anyway." He TOLD you what he thinks, you just don't want to accept it. 3 years is long enough to know if you want to marry someone. He has made his decision. Now you have to make yours.

If marriage is an 'empty institution', how is your being patient going to change his mind?
