So I am currently 19 weeks pregnant with mine and my bf’s first baby. We have known each other for about 3 years but have been together for 1. We have an amazing relationship and he’s the best person I know. He shows me so much love, trust and compassion and we are so excited to have a baby together.

With that being said, I have mentioned hypothetically over the last few months about possible marriage or our hypothetical wedding and he’s never said no I don’t want to get married but he’s also never brought it up himself or confirmed to me in a way that he indeed does want to get married. So I flat out asked him over the phone on his way home last night ‘would you ever want to marry me?’ His response ‘I’ve thought about it’ I said what does that mean and he said it means I’ve thought about it. So of course me being pregnant I got so upset. I quickly hung up and cried and cried about it. Because what does that even mean? He knew I was upset because when he got home he gave me a big long hug and told me he loves me and was extra sweet. But no clarification of his response and I was too upset to bring it up again.

How would you feel about that answer?? I’m just even more confused now because we are planning a life together and a family and he knows I want the same last name eventually as my baby and him. We are planning to have multiple children together and does he not know if he wants to marry me?? Now I’m terrified of what he means by that. I texted him and told him today that I’d like to have more of a conversation about it tonight. But I’m curious as to what y’all think or how that would make you feel? 😔
