If you lived with a woman for 5+ yrs, had a child with her, and have not yet married - do you still think there is a chance for wedding bells in the future? Be honest please.

Let's face facts when a man's got a clean and comfortable home to sleep in, regular sex at his wanting, a hot meal, and clean clothes and the woman's playing wifey at the same time pumping out babies. What reason should he marry her? Women do a disservice to themselves when they do stuff like play wife and have children for a man she's not married to. You won't get a logical answer out of some of the men here because they won't be real with you. As far as marriage...the longer women live with a man the less likely he's going to marry her and is more likely to leave her for someone else in the near future.

Well, I've never lived with a woman period. I've just had girlfriends at lived at home. A child shouldn't be the reason you stay with a woman, especially if she purposely stop taking the pill or whatever to get pregnant so she wouldn't lose her guy. But, if you have a child with this woman and you split up, that child is still your responsibility, whether you live with the kid or not. But, mostly, I just think that if you've been with a woman for 5+ years, I think there is a definite chance for wedding bells in the future. In fact, what the hell is keeping you if you've been with a woman for that long? My only setback is the whole 50% of all marriages end in divorce thing.

All depends on the guy. You've lived with him over 5 years, with a child... I think you should talk about it.
By this time in the relationship, you should be confident enough to ask this sort of things.
IF he gets mad, or "offended" means that he's trying to run away from commitment and he's way is to make you feel guilty.
Remember YOU ARE WORTHY! You are the mother of his children, the least he can do is treat you right. Don't be afraid, you deserve at least a straight answer!

I was with my wife for less than a year before we married. The baby was three years later.
Personally, if I was with a woman I loved, I wouldn't have waited to marry, especially with a baby. But then again, I NEVER get compared to most 'guys'.
My opinion, if he hasn't yet... you have little left to hope for. Even with extenuating(?) circumstances, if it's a priority for you and not him there has to be something wrong.

There is a chance if the woman asserts herself and lets her man know why, when, where and how she wants to get married.
Do not expect the man to act first.

Yes.Of course,living with one woman that long would be considered a common-law marriage.

maybe he's thinking about how he's gonna support you financially...hence why he hasn't popped the ? it could be that he knows he's not financially stable to support you. If money isn't your biggest concern let him know men need to be comforted and reassured that you don't care about the money. Good luck, wish you the best
