Marriage or Move On?

Anonymous

So my boyfriend and I will be celebrating our 3 yr anniversary next month. We’ve both expressed how we wanted to get married. I agreed to marry him as long as we have a stable place to live together alone away from our family. Since we’ve been together he’s expressed how much he wants to marry me and we even set an appointment for a marriage license.

My thing is you wanna marry me so bad where’s my ring? Now I’m not expecting some expensive ring because that’s just not me but I want something to prove he’s serious I even suggested a rubber ring. It seems as though he’s all talk. When it comes to putting energy and working toward the things we need for our relationship (living arrangements, engagement) it’s always pushed off or always an excuse as to why he can’t but when it comes to people in his family he gets things done no problem. I told him if I marry him I want to be the first option not the second or last.

I told him I’m expecting a ring and I don’t want any other gift but that. And if he can’t manage to get us a place (both our money put together even with me living in another state) I’m going to be done with the relationship.

I’m so deeply in love with him but next year this time I’m moving out of my parents house and it’s coming down to am I living alone or am I moving in his state in a place with him.

P. s. I’m preparing myself to do my own thing honestly.
