I proposed to my girlfriend, but she wanted more time to think, sometimes I think that I'm a step ahead in my feelings, and I'm afraid that I'm surrounding her with love, so she can't decide on her own, what's going wrong?

Take a deep breath and pause. You have proposed to your girlfriend, and as nerve-wracking as it is, she is taking time to think your proposal over. If she didn't like you, she wouldn't even consider it: she would just say 'no.' Neediness pushes people away, despite that the aim is to draw someone closer. So give her breathing space too - and know that you can't control another person, but you can control how you react and interpret events. Good luck!

The answer is not always yes. Sometimes no, or not now is a much better choice. She may have any number of reasons for not wanting to get married to you or anyone else at this time. Perhaps she knows she is not ready for the huge responsibility of being married and starting a family. If you love someone enough to ask that question remember it is a proposal not a demand. She has a right to answer the question in anyway that she feels is right and you have a responsibility to respect her choice.

Give her time and space. u will know soon.
Its good that shes doing the thinking, should make u think too. Dont rush into things. Think through carefully.If shes a step behind its better she steps up to ur level or leave the relationship rather than go ahead half heartedly.

How long have you been together? Is it long enough to know for sure you want to get married? Maybe she feels that you're moving too fast. Once you ask THE question you have to let her decide on her own. No asking her to hurry up and keep bugging her. When she's ready, she let you know. It's just the waiting part that's hell.

Retract the proposal. You are uncertain whether you want to marry, if you don't retract you might end up married. But you are unsure this even what you want, much less whether it is her desire.

Let her have some personal space and let her think. Don't push.
