You shouldn't marry someone just because you feel obligated. I'd want someone to marry me because they want to be with me for the rest of their life, not because they think they OWE me. What you do owe him is respect and honesty. Stop waiting and tell him now. It only gets worse the longer you let it go on. If you marry this person (assuming your speaking about yourself), you're going to be miserable and you're only going to make the other person miserable as well. Save yourselves the grief of a divorce later on.

People marry for many reasons--not just love. Security is a biggee. Love is highly overrated in our culture; or what we think love is. If you can't get comfortable with a person, ultimately, you will leave no matter how good the person is to you. People in successful arranged marriages, and there are many of them, will tell you that the best love is that which comes to you over a period of time living together as husband and wife.

I asked that same question to a friend of mine who did just that. Married a man she didn't love but because he was good to her, she felt she couldn't leave. In her case, I think it was fear that she'd never be asked to marry again and fear that she'd never be able to fall in love.

In my case it was because I was an immature 19 and we were good in bed together.
