kml - when we started dating, he told me upfront that he was unsure about the whole marriage 'thing'. we started dating, fell in love and here we are 2 1/2 years later.
He has opened up to the idea, but isn't sold on it. The topic keeps coming up for conversation privately and while out with friends. Obviously winning an engagement ring brings it all to the forefront.
He hasn't told his mom that i won this ring because he, and his friends, all know she will sort of freak out.
I saw a text conversation he had with a friend who asked him about it and he sort of reiterated that he isn't sure. He and his friend were saying how they don't see the point of marriage if there is a committment, unless kids are involved.
So it's been on my mind, maybe that's why I thought of this board (?). How long do I stay, wait and see if he changes his mind. How do I walk away? Is marriage THAT important to me?
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
