    I wouldn’t want to rush a relationship, but I don’t want to be strung along and end up in a 10+ years relationship. I don’t want to be a girlfriend forever I want to be a wife, and I don’t want to have kids without being married.

      I couldn’t agree more! This is exactly what happened to me. Was with my ex for 12 years just to be left in the end. A man that takes so many years to figure out what he wants is a huge waste of time. Come to my life now, this man knew he wanted to marry me in less than a year! It’s so important to be on the same page and I’m sorry, it doesn’t take 12 years to figure that out.

      123Charlyn I absolutely agree!!! Me and my husband got in engaged on our 2nd anniversary waited for out 5 th year to get married. We are now together 10yrs and married for 5 yrs with 3 kids between us. Thank you god!! But I know someone who has been with their baby father for 20 yrs and he has yet to marry her smh and she is still waiting even after he had a baby with someone else. You should never allow anyone to play house with you and your heart.

      My sis in law waited 10 years and ended up giving him an ultimatum. They married but he's a narcissist and stays cheating, lies and disappears on her. She refuses to leave though. They are also raising a kid together. They're now together for 20 years but aren't fulfilled or happy. She was jealous of me because I was engaged in 7 months, married within 3 years. Married for 16 years now. My husband and I knew we were the one for each other right from the start. Ladies when a man loves you, he won't make you wait. He'll be dying to make you his wife and talk about building a life with you all his own without having to push him.

    In my opinion, marriage is the ultimate commitment. After a certain age, waiting around for 2 years of more for marriage is just wasting time. Many women linger in relationships for years expecting to be married and it never happens. So perhaps that's frustration, not necessarily being nasty, that has resulted from being strung along for years. Just because Jennifer Lopez has her own money doesn't mean she should settle for playing house. Most grown women don't want eternal boyfriends. They want husbands.

      1) an unmarried woman cannot carry her "boyfriend's" last name.
      2) after a certain age, a woman referring to her partner as a "boyfriend" is extremely juvenile.
      3) an unmarried woman cannot make medical decisions for a "boyfriend ". Regardless of how long she has been with him, should an emergency occur, she is NOT the next of kin.
      4) there's a greater sense of commitment and more of an incentive to want to work on the relationship.

      Child support is a scam. None of it goes to the child. The mother spends it on herself, while the father can’t be in his kids life. Every time I see a woman with no wedding ring on in the supermarket with kids and hundreds of dollars worth of weave on her head, buying groceries with EBT, I wanna punch the bitch. Already stealing one man’s money isn’t enough for her. She has rip off the taxpayers too.

    I think pressuring causes issues because a man will only do something when he’s truly ready... so rushing things and pressuring him isn’t gonna be genuine... having a conversation on what BOTH of you want is healthy.., pressuring and nagging is not... and you don’t want someone to resent you once you guys take that next step especially if they weren’t ready yet

      I don't think it should be on the man's terms when you two should get married. But I think most women don't stop and ask themselves "why am i pushing for the ring?" Many times we pressure because we are being pressured by other's (society) and sometimes we pressure because we are feeling insecure about something and we think marriage will solve it. The right partner will never see it as pressure.

      @@frizzzx86 - Wrong. A POA -- especially a Durable POA -- supersedes the wishes of a spouse. There are a few entities that carry more legal power than a spouse (like a parent or guardian) and a power of attorney is one of them. While a spouse is an extension of a person, a POA is essentially the one that reflects & represents on BEHALF of a person. Spouse don't always get the final say. If a parent decides to be a part of a decision over the health or inheritance of a child, they can enter a legal battle with the spouse and have a higher chance of winning than if they tried to go up against a POA which they'd have 0 to little chance of winning. A POA's job is to act as the ghost of the person they represent and be their voice when they're gone. It would be as if the parents were fighting against their own kid. Even if I did plan to get married (perish the thought), I'd rather my spouse sign as a POA than to act as my wedded partner. There's nothing more iron-clad.

    I don't think you should be surprised by someone wanting to marry you. You should have had this conversation prior. We are conditioned as women to think that by rom coms but what if you don't want to marry him. Also I love watching Adrienne and Tamera preaching from their soap boxes when in reality Adam broke up with Tamera for a year because she was pressuring him to marry her and Lenny couldn't even be bothered to plan a meaningful proposal opting for a day of reservation after dating her for 5 years. Adrienne even admitted after their split that she had to push for ever step. What I don't like is that she judges other girls who were in her position now that she has a HUSBAND. Girls, if you want to get married to your partner because you feel it's the next natural step in your relationship, have the talk and if he makes you feel stupid about it, then he isn't the right man for you. Dignity above all.

      I agree with you for the most part but there's two factors to consider: 1) when people establish the relationship, such as high school sweethearts or do things at a young age, then they might be doing it because it seems like the right thing and didn't think it through. 2) is what becomes a reasonable time frame for things. Some people look at their financial status and where they may see their careers going. If one's career says "Hollywood" and the other says "Wall Street", then talking and about the direction of things is crucial; not just to destroys the relationship in the moment.

I'll be 26 this year and I think if he were to ask me I would say yes. The only thing Is he always asks casually. Like if you're not going to do it romantically, get on one knee with a ring then I'm playing deaf TF. He's not that romantic and I understand.

      @@Abby-kb7rb That's just the wedding. I'm talking about marriage, she makes it seem as if people should marry for financial stability. Money is important in marriage yes but it's not the only important thing so Loni keeps asking why Jlo wants to get married when she has her money and what not. She is not considering the romance aspect of it. You can be rich and still want to marry.

      Because she secretly dislike men. Listen to her logic. She said if you are a "WOMAN" and you have everything for yourself, then why ruin it with marriage. If a MAN said the exact same thing on daytime television, he'd have hell to pay from every female in the audience.

    I think the larger point missed by the framing of the initial question is that we should stop starting from the assumption that everyone wants to and would be best off married, when all evidence appears to indicate at LEAST half of all participants historically cannot do what they're "supposedly supposed" to do to both (1) be in a marriage and (2) be HAPPY. A significant plurality approaching, if not actually or over, half of all people who marry end up violating the "terms" of that marriage ("cheating", etc.), leaving it (which, kinda defeats the whole point if the whole notion of marriage is a "forever soulmate" or something along those lines--otherwise, why not just cohabit, or not, so long as the two parties see fit, then depart amicably when it's run its course, IF the intent/understanding was never a relationship of indefinite duration), or at BEST "settling" into a comfortable situation that doesn't make them particularly happy (though, to be fair, since they don't divorce or maybe as obviously show their "discontent", this category is probably harder to account for/quantify--but if anecdotal reports are any indicate there's at least a sufficiently non-nominal population of this group for them to be NOT entirely invisible and unknown "as a thing").
    Instead of just ASSUMING one should be married, START with the question "why DO I want to be married--what good, what meaning, what significance, does it bring me, if any at all?"
    As someone who's personally not sure that they want to have kids ever, I do not see any reason marriage would be a move that would benefit me either on a pure numbers basis (I make enough money as I understand the tax code I am unlikely to benefit by marriage, without kids that is at least, for example), or a more "symbolic/emotional" basis--it's far too legally significant a decision to do it JUST because it's meaningful, now matter how meaningful, to someone else for whatever reasons of their own that I have not myself internalized, and I for myself have not found any reason to internalize that would justify it. I don't feel the need the state's approval for my relationships ("romantic" or otherwise) to be "legitimate" or the best they could be. Obliging "groupthink" or "tradition" have never been sufficient justifications for an act to satisfy me. The notion--knowing what at its core the act of marriage legally is and does, particularly--that it is somehow a "romantic" gesture or a way to show care or the like is lost entirely on me--I understand this is a common notion people have, what I do not understand is why it is a common notion that people SHOULD have. Marriage functionally speaking is a mish-mash of legal moves/effects (change to the inheritance of property on death, change to status to children in rights and obligations, change in medical decision making power, etc.) one could for the most part contract into a la carte, PLUS the addition of (even in the most amicable of separations--which as we all know, people are always at their most rational and not vindictive selves at the conclusion of a significant and deeply emotional "romantic" relationship) massive transaction costs of state involvement if (and very often, when) the relationship is dissolved.

    I had an old roommate who would nag her boyfriend for a ring after only being with him for 2 years! He had told her multiple times that he never wanted to get married and said quote "if you keep waiting for a ring, you're going to be dissatisfied". Idk if they ever got engaged but I suspected he would run for the hills soon.
