Paul proposed randomly (although I knew it was coming) by blowing up a balloon & wrapping it up with loads of layers & on each layer was a dofferent lovely message & the last message was "this will keep our love going forever - pop the balloon" and I pooed the balloon & my ring fell out of it!

i feel the same as alot of people here, ive been with my partner for 6 years now and we have lived together for a year, i think when is he gonna propose to me, i get the feeling he does not want all the mither of planning and how much money its gonna cost us, it does kinda spoil it when its thought about alot because you want it to be unexpected and suprising.

Women should never ask a man to marry them!!!

One of the basic ideals of a man is that he really only likes or cherishes what he has to work for as opposed to what's given to or handed to him!

So do not rely on the feminist idea that we are all equal.
We men do think differently.

And if you want your marriage to last you should not make the first move!

And another thing... the men that realy love you and want you forever...
ASK YOU TO MARRY THEM!
The ones that just want to have someone do the laudry and screw them every other night for free don't ask!

Hi, new to the site, I googled "Why wont he propose" and ended up here :p
Anyways, we've been talking about it and he keeps saying that he wants to save up money to do it properly, fair enough, but what I really want is the proposal and the engagement, not a ring, I dont care if the ring is a 20 dollar replica, I just want to know that he's committed to me and that we're going to plan our lives together. I feel so frustrated! I love him, but I dont know how long I'm going to have to wait.
Anyways, I really enjoyed reading most of your posts, it's nice to see that I'm not the only person that feels this way, I'm not the only girl whose man wont propose even though that's just waht we're waiting for.

Hi, so relieved i'm not the only gal in this situation. Been with my boyf for almost 2 years. We met and both knew instantly that we were meant for each other. Moved in together after only 3 months of dating and are incredibly happy together. We talk about our future and the size of family we want. He openly talks about "when we have kids", we both want exactly the same from life. Only one problem .... he just wont propose!!! I know he wants to get married and certainly isn't scared of marriage and commitment so I dont understand what he is waiting for. He even told me on valentines day this year that he thought I would propose to him and seemed fairly disappointed that I hadn't. What is going on? Am I missing something? Help

well im in the same boat....lived with my b/f for almost 2 years..bought the house together .... get on wonderfully....but he wont marry me.
He has been married 2x before and says he wont do it again....it hurts since I dont see any reason why he shouldnt marry me.
I have told him that legally he has no rights as just my b/f and all he says is that he is committed and he doesnt need a piece of paper to prove it.
I proposed to him on the 29th Feb and he turned me down....so now I dont know what to do.
I dont want to lose him since he is the most wonderful person I have ever met.....we dont want children together since we are to old for that....so question is will he ever propose to me????

3 & 1/2 years of living together and no proposal yet. I read evry single one of the posts thus far and it's nice to know I am not the only one but at the same time frightening. Mine makes the same camments "when we get married this..." or "when we get married that..." or has even gonein to who would be his groomsmen! Where we would have it and how large it would be....WTF!!! Why hasn't he asked? I don't get it. He knows how I feel but still gives me no indication of when this is going to happen. It is really disheartening to know that I am ready to commit my life to him and he apparently is not. Crying or Very sad

Hopefully he will wake up one dya becuase I am not willing to leave a perfect guy for my own agenda in life....waiting it is I suppose Crying or Very sad
