I think if the communication is good then you'll have a better idea of where this relationship is heading. You shouldn't be in the position where you are "waiting" for him to see if he'll marry you. If there is a lack of communication in the relationship, then it is doubtful that a marriage will be in the offing.

Wow. This is a hard one. If you talked about marriage in the relationship in the past I'd wait until your ready if and when that is you should talk to your mate. If he's non responsive move around get out of the relationship and see if he comes around if after a few weeks he doesn't SERIOUSLY MOVE on and delete his numbers out of your cell. Good Luck!

I read someplace that if he hasn't mentioned marriage after 18 months then he is unlikely to ever want to marry you. Seems reasonable; after all, if you're both adults it doesn't take that long to know whether or not your partner is someone you want to spend the rest of your life with.
After about 6 months together it's not unreasonable to speak to him about how he sees your future together; what he says should either ring alarm bells or persuade you that this could be It.
Of course, there's nothing to stop you asking him to marry you!

I'd say a good amount of time...2years being in a relationship with someone...if he hasnt made a decision about marriage by then, even if the relationship is going well....there's a problem from him committing to you. Best be a moving on.

2 years sounds about right, unless he has said he never wants to get married. If he said he doesn't want to get married, move on. In my experience, guys who say they are against marriage are either: a. against marriage or b. against marrying you. I would suggest never asking a guy to get married; it seems like it's hard enough for them to stay monogamous. At least it should be their idea.

I'm not sure of the time-frame, and I don't like ultimatums but there is nothing wrong with saying to a man something like . . . . . . .
"I love you dearly but I hope to have a husband and start a family sometime in the next couple of years, and I would really like it to be you, but if it won't be you, please let me know, so that I can find a man who wants to marry me."
Good Luck!
