Default My boyfriend has not yet proposed to me. I am starting to feel uneasy.?

My boyfriend is a wonderful guy. We have been dating for over two years and have lived together for nearly one. We have even started looking at houses together. I would just like some advice on how to handle the situation.Please no,"Just leave him."I love him and am not willing to give up a perfectly healthy relationship. Thank you.

Think about this. Why buy the cow when the milk is FREE.

Your already giving him everything he wants why would he propose? Stop looking at houses, stop playing house. You need a commitment so... tell him you love him and if there's no rock on your hand you need to move on.

If the relationship is totally healthy why change anything? You're already living as a married couple. If you decide down the road that you'd like to have children and he still hasn't popped the question, bring it up then, though I doubt you'll have to. I feel that his intentions are pointing toward marriage with you.

Have you brought the topic of marriage up to him? He could just be uneasy of when to talk about it with you. If not you should just wait a bit longer. Sometimes people like making sure that the person that they're going to marry is really"the one".Hope this helps.

Ask him what his intentions are. Then, if it is not towards marriage, then ask him this question."Don't you think we have been together long enough for you to know in your heart if you want to marry me or not?"Especially since you have been living together all this time.Real estate is a real picky thing. They will not sell the two of you a house unless you are married. That can be your weapon of choice.

Talk to him about your plans together for the future. Discuss what your short term and long term objectives are as a couple with one another. Learning to communicate clearly without being self-conscious or fear is an important skill to have in a marriage. Have this discussion and come to some understanding prior to committing to buying a house with him. Should things not work out, owning a house together could prove to be a very financially messy for both of you.I was living with my husband for ten years prior to marriage, but we discussed our situation in detail and decided what was the best point in our lives to get married (after I graduated). If the two of you are being open and honest things will be much clearer for you both.

Why would he propose? He is already living with you and probably doesn't see the need to make it legal. If you don't want to buy a house with him, (which isn't good unless your married) I would tell him that if he is thinking about things like that, then he must be thinking about marriage. If he says no, then tell him buying the house is a no. Seriously, when you start buying things together and not married, that is a rough situation to handle and to break off. Its usually a hugh battle.

When I met my boyfriend and now husband. I let him know from the Beginning that I was looking for marriage and not a long term relationship. I made it clear that If i didn't see a proposal in 2 year I would leave.I love him to death and to be honest with you, if he wouldn't have asked I don't know if I would be able to leave.Its important conversation that you are going to have to talk to him about. Just simply ask, where do you see me and you in 5 years. If he doest really have an answer then that tells you something.

I guess he still wait for the right time to proposed to you. I guess there is nothing to get hurry for now.
