Curious

My SO told me we were pretty much going to elope when he came home

Back story: we’ve been together over 5years he’s been stationed in Japan a year in July he just can home for 20days last month and he talked all about us getting married and everything

IT NEVER HAPPENED. He never once brought it up or anything.. I’m in no rush to honestly I love him dearly, but why tell me that we are going to and not do it? Like good or bad I don’t even want to know why he didn’t because I’m kind of hurt.. should I even be hurt? I haven’t asked him, or even brought it up and neither as he I rather it that way... but honest answers ladies is it just cold feet or what I know he loves me there is no doubt but why kind of give my hopes up? I was excited to marry my best friend ..😔
