My girlfriend has been dating her boyriend almost 3 yrs. Her boyfriend tells her he isn;t ready to get married yet but he wants to spend the rest of his life with her.
He was married to the same woman he has two children with and divorced when he and my friend met. Last summer his ex remarried. My friend has met and is involved with his children after a year of them dating. she has no children, never had married and is 35 years old. recently he told her he did not want any children and for christmas he bought her a diamond pendant and made it out like it was some big suprose.................to her dismay it wasn't the Diamond engagement ring she was expecting. is it time for her to DUMP him and move on or should she WAIT longer?
I think her time has expired, he has no itentions of marrying her and is stringing her along. what do you think?

I think she should tell him that since the relationship isn't headed towards marriage, that perhaps it's time they see other people. If she wants children, in particular, she needs to move on and move on NOW.
He isn't going to change on that topic, and if she gets pregnant with his child, he's going to feel "trapped".

If that is all she wants is to get married ---then move on
If she really loves this guy what is the rush---enjoy!
Forget the piece of paper...everything always changes after that anyway...only she can decide...again if all she wants is to get married then she needs to move on

i don't think he's stringing her along. he wouldn't be with her for 3 years if he was. marriage is a major commitment that shouldn't be taken lightly. if he was stringing her along, wouldn't there be other issues involved? he's just making sure he doesn't make another wrong move in his life and taking it very slowly. i've known longer engagements.

He is scared he has already had a bad relationship. He was already married to someone he thought that he would be with forever. That is not that easy to get over.
