I have been with my boyfriend for ten years. We talk about ring styles, where to have a wedding, and what baby names we agree on. We are both close with each others parents and have a healthy relationship. I have been calm and patient for the most part, but since I have turned 29, my life is moving fast and I want to start a different phases in my life. He has voiced he wants the same but he says he has not moves into the next phases because he says he is not able to support us financially.He does not have alot of money, but we are doing just fine with both of us bringing in money. He also says he does not want to grow up. Do you have any advice before I lose my patience.

ask him for a pearl necklace, they cost nothing.

He's scared. So am I.I can sympathise with both of you. But if you push too hard he might run away. Maybe he will have a different outlook when he turns 30 too ?

I guess ring is not really important as long as you love each other.
