Married/Engaged?!

Question

So me and my boyfriend have been together for 4 years in January. A bunch of mine and his friends are getting married and getting engaged! I'm just getting sick of seeing it! And our friends haven't been dateing as long as us! One just got together in September and got married today....(12/29/16)! I was just wondering, 
Dose this mean he don't want to marry me? 
Or am I not go enough to get married to?! 
Or am I overthinking this....!? 
I don't know, I'm just confused right know?!

Answer

I was in the same place.. except we've been together 3 years. 3 friends of mine were together, and engaged, if not married in less time combined (all 3 relationships time put together) than we were together!!! I felt exactly the same. I felt like "what's wrong with ME?" "What did I do wrong?" "Why am I not good enough to marry?" And honestly it was just a negative voice in my head. We got engaged about two months ago now. The entire time he had been planning his proposal, and saving for my dream ring, though I told him I didn't even need one. Talk with him about it, see where he is with it. I can almost assure you that your time is coming very soon.. take it from someone who knows what that feeling is like. I know that anger, jealousy, and then feeling guilty because you should be happy but you're just not. I know. But your turn is coming, and I'm sure it's coming sooner than you realize!! Hang in there girlie! You can do this!!

Answer

Im 38. He's 27. I'm in no rush for marriage. Been together 4 years. My little sissy just got engaged the other day. Im her maid of honor, she's 23. Getting married in 2019. We knew it was coming. Do you at least talk about the future or marriage or kids or living together etc MY guy and I call each other hubby and wifey. We both wear wedding bands. But aren't married. It's mostly to keep the ladies away lol. He's good looking and charming an could sell ice to an Eskimo. I too have noticed everyone having babies and being pregnant and getting engaged and married around me as well. But honestly I would talk to your guy. Where does he see things going. Does he see a future with you. Etc. Just the one conversation. Don't pressure him. Some guys just aren't there yet. They need to feel like a provider. Or need to save up or ask parents permission. Have a good job, a place to live etc.  Idk his situation. Don't give him an ultimatum men tend to choose what's not pressuring them. Just the one talk. I told my guy I would not consider marrying him until he's at least 30 he's still figuring out life. He's changed jobs so many times. I need stability and consistency. He's not ready for marriage yet. I don't pressure him. Be patient. If after you have the conversation I hope things get better.

Answer

Talk to him and see what he says about it. I know I've seen this happen already and I'm only 21 with only a few people around me being engaged and getting married. Heck my cousin and his girlfriend have been together a little over a year and are getting married in April so that kind of bothered me some but we both agreed to be done with school and have good jobs so I cannot complain too much

Answer

Just because you guys ain't in the same place they are doesn't mean anything you can't compare your relationship to anyone else's

Talk to him. See if marriage is in his eyes too
