Why would you want to be the wife of someone who isn’t bothered about marrying you?

Marriage isn’t important to everyone, but if it’s important to you, and he clearly knows that, then a good man would have married you by now. The fact he hasn’t and won’t even talk about it shows his disrespect of you. And after all this time, that’s unlikely to ever change.

The right person is out there for you, who would love to whisk you down the aisle...it’s time you ditched this time waster, and set about finding a more worthy gentleman!

Good luck :)

He doesn't want to. Do you have children? If not then walk away.
I've decided if a man doesn't want the same commitment as me then they are not for me.

Not me personally, but DH’s brother proposed to his girlfriend six years ago. They’re still not married. His girlfriend even took the piss out of me that me and DH had been together longer but weren’t even engaged.

Well, we’ve been married four years this year. No big proposal, just decided to get married.

A proposal is worth NOTHING unless there’s a clear path to the church/registry office.

What did he actually propose, if it was a proposal of marriage?

katy1213 · 21/01/2021 01:12

What did he propose exactly? Because it clearly wasn't marriage. Whatever you do, don't have children with him.
Give him back his ring and tell him his time has expired.

He proposed to shut you up and now he's just stringing you along. He has no intentions of marrying you. It's time to move on.
