I've been with my girlfriend for only about 2 months, but we were "seeing" each other for about 6 months before we made things official. We've been friends for over 4 years. During the time when we weren't official, she would ask me from time to time questions regarding marriage and hypothetical questions about engagements, proposals, marriage, etc. And from time to time she asks me questions now about these kinds of things, and I enjoy sharing about my thoughts and asking about hers. Do girls usually ask questions about marriage related issues with any guy, meaning girls just like to flirt with the thought of marriage and will ask any guy friend or do you think she's asking these questions because deep down there is something there, whether she realizes it or not. She has never said anything like "if we got married..."-- everything is left fairly open and general. It'd be nice to know if these questions meant something deep and not that she was just asking "for fun". Any thoughts?

I think she is asking you questions about marriage to see if you are open to the idea of marriage in the future. She probably doesn't want to date you long term if you aren't someone who wants to marry eventually. If you aren't interested in marriage and she is, then she will at least know before spending a lot of time in your relationship. Most of my friends (if they aren't married) want to be married, have kids etc. Women have a biological time clock if they want to have children so, this is perhaps why she is asking. Of course, the only way to really know why she is asking you these questions is to just ask her.

women don't ask just any guy these questions... now she might ask a close friend about some issues to compare to what the guy she is seeing is saying... but since you are official.. I pretty sure she is seeking out your feelings that yo have for your own future... you know... whether you want kids, big house, a prenup, etc... it sounds like your want her questions to be referring to the two of you... and if it was me I would be asking questions to a potenial mate... even it was far in the future when all this would happen... I would want to know just for compatibility reasons... hope this helps!!!

Guest..,
I can only tell you about myself and a few friends. We are a practical group. We didn't date anyone we couldn't see ourselves married to. We asked questions to help us decide the potential for a long term commitment.
How very refreshing that you two are friends and lovers and confidants. You asked about all women in general. What really matters to you is just this one woman, in particular. She is into you, for sure. Lucky you!

You usually initiate marriage conversations when you are really interested in someone and you see a common future and potential in the relationship. If it is something shallow or there is no chemistry this topic is not even touched.
She seems to planning a future with you....
Good luck.

I ask my bf of only a few weeks marriage questions. I think it's good to see where other people stand about things. Even if you aren't serious.

She was just testing the waters. So if she did like you someday she would know if you were worth her time or not. Single women ask these questions to any one who maybe a potential candidate.

I would say, more often than not women ask these questions of a guy they see as a potential mate.

I think the thoughts are about you and her. I only ask someone that I truly could see us going that far in our relationship. Those questions you just don't ask anyone

If a woman doesn't see herself marrying a specific man or isn't really that into him, TRUST ME, she will not bring up marriage.
Us women don't want to bring that word up to people that we don't expect to be with for long because we don't want any surprise proposals from someone we really don't consider ourselves committed to.
