Threaten to leave him!!!!!
1. Simply put most men don't move on the big M word until the woman they love starts to question whether or not the relationship is going anywhere. IF he loves you he'll likely take some prodding, some conversations and maybe an argument or two but he'll still do it, EVENTUALLY! Be patient!
2. If he doesn't respond well to talks, prodding arguments(no more than 3) on the subject and you're dream is to be married then tell him that you love him but you'll be moving on soon!

Well, if you are living together, or have children together, good luck. He is not committed, and you are. You don't want to put yourself in that situation, he has the control, and he gets what he wants, why should he marry you. Girls, when you jump in bed with these guys, and have children, then find out he is a jerk, you are the loser. Maybe he does not want to get married and you should move on. Eight years is a lot of time to waste when maybe he is not the right one. You never know unless you get out there and date others, then see if he comes running. If not, he never was going to marry you anyway.

He's living in a comfort zone so why would he want to change that. Maybe he thinks that your alright with it too. You can't make him propose if that's not what he wants. Talk to him and be honest about wanting to have that ring on your finger and that it would mean so much to you. If he says absolutely not or maybe later(a way to get out of the conversation) you might think about moving on in a different direction without him because he's afraid of commitment. It just depends on how much that ring means to you.

Thats terrible. Have you seen guys and dolls? It's a play about two woman. One of which has been with her guy for 11 years and has a ring but nothing more. He gambles and doesn't take it seriously and his friends don't either.
Sound like you? Hes unstabble? He won't settle down? Can't make decisions? Basically, a loser that you can do better than but you love him and hate yourself for it?
Its time to tell him it's time. Take me or leave me.

You won't get him to do anything. He is already comfortable with the way things are. You gave your milk away for free, so there is no need to buy the cow. You can't force the issue, he has already obtained you. Stop wasting your time, unless you two are planning on having kids, he would not even considering marrying you. Break it off.

I read your question on Yahoo Answers. I work for the Greg Behrendt Show. Greg is a comedian who wrote for "Sex and the City" and is the author of "He's Just Not That Into You." I am currently looking for guests for an upcoming show. In particular I am looking for a couple in which one person wants is waiting for a proposal. I was wondering if this is something you would be interested in?
If interested please contact me,

First, make him realize what he wants.
"If you ever got married, would you want it to be me?"
Then from there it's just the question of whether or not he wants to get married in his life. But don't press him too hard.
I also agree, why get married at all? If you two are happy the way it is now, then don't change anything.

Why not try proposing to him? Although many people are used to the man popping the question, it is not unheard of for a women to propose in this day and age.

Explain why you want marriage. . .and don't be shy about telling him the truth.
Maybe he won't see things your way immediately, but it'll at least get him to see things your way a bit, and maybe change his way of thinking when he sees that it's not just a wedding you're after.

surely after 8 years you 2 have a relationship were you can ask him what he is thinking about as far as you and him go ! if you dont have that kind of relationship after 8 years i dont know if you even have that close of a relationship, because the most important thing in relationship is comunication. talk to the guy about the way you feel that you need to know how or what hes feeling on the subject of you and him..
