This means she didn't want to tell you no up front and she needed time to figure out a way to shoot you down easily. Probably over the phone or in a text message. Why would you want to marry someone that isn't enthusiastic about marrying you?
You might be right but I had to know for sure. If she tells me no I know I have to move on I can live with that, but what I couldn't live with is not knowing.
If she didn't say yes right then, you knew. Even if she comes back tomorrow and says yes, do you really want to marry someone that had to think about it?
You know I never really thought about it that way. I guess I don't know what I'll do if she comes back and say yes. Damn but you did just make a great point when I think about it.
By all means, if you're having problems in a relationship, the best thing to do is to get married... You know marriage is a legally binding contract for the rest of your life, right? It's not just something you do to make up after a fight..
I think the only thread I've seen on this forum that trumps italics-boy's pathetic internet sharing of his own immaturity and brazen stupidity is the one where that kid asked for advice on how to get in a fight and ended up in the hospital. A big to this entire thread.
Buy a great big diamond ring that you can't really afford on credit. Use all of your savings for the down payment. If she's on the fence, that will make her say yes in a heatbeat.
What amuses me is that this guy is obviously too emotionally immature to handle a simple dating relationship, and he thinks he'll fare better by entering into a marriage contract.
Look. Dude regrets letting her go when she wanted marriage. Now he thinks he's ready. Step off. Sure, it may already be ending poorly, but as he said, at least he will know now. Plus, maybe the shock with knock the italics out of him.
marriage = more arguments.. arguments/disagreements are part of any healthy relationship.. Love is the sticky icky at the end of the day that will keep you guys together
