My fiance keeps putting off telling his parents about our wedding.
They know that we are engaged - we are living together.
But when I ask him to see if his parents are home so that we can go and see them about the wedding, he grumbles and says that he will and never does. And when he does it is when I am not there.
I don't think that the reason is because he doesn't want to marry me - because I know that he does want to.
Could the reason be something to do with his parents??

Yes. Maybe the parents dont want him to get married or his mother likes to go on and on talking about wedding plans, and it annoys him. Many reasons. Well just go over for dinner or out with his parents and talk to his parents yourself (with him present). If he wont bring it up, you do it! I did. As soon as I got engaged I called my parents and brothers and when I got home I ran over to my fiance's parents house and showed his parents the ring with my fiance at my side. He said nothing, as the typical male does. So just talk about it to his parents yourself. He wont tell them anything, so you tell them. Hey you have the right because soon they will be your inlaws and you will be legally part of his family and even have his dad's last name!

It is quite possible that they won't be excited about it, or that they aren't so sure about their son marrying you. I am not trying to be mean, but if he thinks that is the case, it may very well be the case. Maybe they think you are too young or not financially stable or something.
I doubt it has anything to do with him not loving you enough or not being ready for marriage unless he is reluctant to tell his friends. If he doesn't want to tell his friends yet, you may have to worry about whether or not he really wants to take the next step.

Just tell ur bf if he doesn't check if his parents r at home, you will take care of it... Maybe he's also not ready yet to get married even though he want to marry u! or it cud be as u said family matters!

perhaps he thinks his family is going to make a fuss about how much its going to cost and things like that or perhaps tell him how to do things and start to take over, and he doesnt want that. Make a day when you want to tell them and when you two are there with his parents than bring it up and start talking about it.

He's probably not sure about marrying you,and still loves you enough not to want to embarrass you or hurt your feelings.Have a talk with him.
