With a kid in the picture it is basically a marriage. Except legally.
Has she asked you about it11 years in and not married
I don't believe in it, simple
I should add some context. She's 38 and he's 30. They're both professionals. I've met him a few times and breh is just laid back. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy to so something like propose unless there is an incentive to.
Ladies don’t end up like Chrissy from love and hip hop.


when it falls apart. Marriage does nothing but cost money and leave you with a title that let's all future partners know u tried marriage and failed.The most appropriate thing to do would be to have a discussion about it. Proposals shouldn't really be a surprise. It's a huge life decision and everyone should be on the same page.
Her obvious lack of communication is the reason she's in the situation she's in.
I agree. People just kind of go with the flow when it comes to relationships. No one ever expects it to go the distance initially so planning for future is rarely done.

This is why I don't do relationships right nowLong story short, a friend of my sister has been in a relationship with her man for 10 years. Yes 10 YEARS! She confided in my sister and myself, asking if she should propose to him and of course my sister told her not to because that's desperate.
But isn't waiting ten years for a man to propose to you even more desperate? I told her straight she's got nothing to lose at this point. It's obvious she's afraid of rejection so she'd rather convince herself he will propose eventually. They already have a child together.
Ladies. Make it make sense. You get upset with men saying they string you along but choose not to break traditions despite living in an untraditional relationship.
Why continue to be in a long term relationship and not force the breh 's hand? Wouldn't you rather know whether a man wants to commit to you or not rather than waste your good years and egg to a loser?
This is it right here. He doesn't want to be locked with some woman approaching 40 and he's barely out of his 20's...and with options.
He's not the same inexperienced and/or naïve kid he was when they hooked up.
Nah they should date men that have plans to constantly grow and evolve.
And be prepared to leave if such growth doesn't occur.
A lot of nikkas will happily fukk you as long as you let them![]()
Can you intelligently explain in your own words how marriage symbolizes growth?
And if marriage is so grown and mature why do most of them end in divorce?
There isnt breh. Let go of that propaganda that this society has fed you.There has to be more to marriage than this. What about wealth transmission?
So, it's fair to say you think men and women aren't equals? Cause why should my equal be absolved from proposing to someone they want?Call me backwards old fashioned non progressive whatever you like...
Women proposing to men is sucka shyt. shyt is NOT RIGHT
