Guy's Behavior

Why is he not as serious with me or making the same commitment?

So I’ve been with my boyfriend for over a year. He’s everything I want everything I’ve ever dreamed of. But, he is taking his time. Before me he dated a girl fell madly in love, and moved in with her after three months. Before they lived together she lived with her ex boyfriend and his mother. They lived together for 4 months and broke up after 7 months of dating. Previously he had told me he did it to save Money. But I knew that was a lie. I asked him the other day as to why he hasn’t asked me to move in. He said the circumstances are different now and our parents have very conservative views. I was like you didn’t care before? Why now. He said the circumstances were different. I sometimes feel as though I am his second choice- he had his love. He looked over her political ideals, their differences and loved her. Once they moved in together things change and they argued and fought. He finally had to tell her to leave. Then we met. Now he says he’s going to wait 1-2 years before making any other moves. I would like some sort of commitment like a promise ring, or something. Is there a reason why he would move fast and commit and me he’s just moving so slow. I’m not trying to come out as insecure I’m just curious. I treat him so well and you would think he would want that with someone who loved him and adored him and I truly do. He’s my best friend and the most fantastic man in the world, but I want to feel commitment. In some shape or form. I just feel like I treat him so well, but for me there’s less sometimes.
