Trust me on this one- if a guy's not ready to get married yet, no hint, no matter how broad, will get him to propose. I have been with my boyfriend for nearly 5 years now, and I have done everything, from subtle hints to blatant arguments, and he is simply just not ready to get engaged. We're still both rather young, though, so I want to respect his position on the issue. If it was the other way around and I was the one who wasn't ready for marriage yet, I'd be pretty upset if he kept putting the pressure on me to get engaged. That's why I believe that these things need to just happen on their own time schedule. Some guys were born ready to get married, and others are trying to outrun it like the plague. If you want to let him know that you would be willing to get married, though, just bring up a friend of yours who is getting married, if you have one, and say, "Wow, I can't wait until it's my turn someday." And just leave it at that. He may get a little freaked out, but at least he'll know then where your mind is on the subject.

If you really know the time is right, and you feel really comfortable wiht being engaged to him (keeping in mind that you would both be taking the next step to commiting for a lifetime) , then I dont think you should hint.

However, you can just ask him if he would like to spend more long term time wiht you and if he had ever considered an engagement. This would leave him wiht the question and give you rather a good idea. Though dont feel distressed if he sems shocked or taken aback, as this is ratehr a deep question to ask.

Best of Luck

How about sitting down for a serious talk? Ask where he sees you guys in 5 years. Don't just jump in with "Lets get engaged!" but if you've been together for a while, there is nothing wrong with discussing the future & perhaps a timeline for things.

You could say one of your friends have been asking you when is the big party or you could start wearing a ring on that finger then let him know what people are thinking but do be subtle make sure there is no room on the right hand for a ring

1st- I would ONLY throw this out after being together for MORE than a year. & I would hope that you guys have already Kind of talked about why you are in that relationship!!

But- When u are in the Mall take him into a Ring store and say "Ohhh This could be fun.. do u wanna look at rings!?" and if he says "NO" then... I would really wonder where u are in your relationship- but if he says Ok- Go look at Wedding Rings together & show him the kind u like! :D

If you can't talk about it then maybe it's not the right time to be getting engaged. Then again you don't want to sound pushy. You could ask him, via spaghetti letters or fridge magnet messages. That would be sweet in a quirky way.

The key to any successful relationship is communication. If you can't ask him directly about your future, you should probably really give a lot more thought to getting engaged.

Lesson number one: Men don't take hints!!! They just don't, and it's too important a subject to hint about anyway, you really need to talk about it openly and honestly, it's a huge commitment, and not one to take lightly, so you need to discuss each others views and really think about it.

You guys really need to talk about marriage, and not just 'hint' about it.

Guys also don't get "hints" that well.

Have you spoken about it with him at all? Me and my boyfriend always talk about what we'd have at our wedding - songs etc but i dont know if he's planning on proposing yet? Just ask him if he sees you getting married in the future or something like that!
