My boyfriend and I have been together for 8 years. He is a wonderful boyfriend, he loves me very much and we have a great relationship, with one big problem. I always knew that he wanted to finish school before marriage. However, it has been 8 years and he has 2 more years of graduate school. I told him that if I am not engaged by next summer I will move and take our cats with me. I never wanted to be the type to give ultimatums. I know he wants to marry me. He talks about our future wedding like it’s this great adventure. I feel insulted and rejected. Worse yet, my last birthday was an important to me, and he knew it. Not only did he not plan anything, but he got me a gag gift (sweet, but stupid), and that’s IT!!! He meant well (kind of) and I really told him off for it, made him cry, but I still never got a gift, and he never did anything special. What do I do? I love him and don’t want to leave him, but his thoughtlessness just hurts more as time goes by.
