Does the 5 years include 4.5 years of best friend time, meaning you've only been together for 6 months in a dating capacity? ...or has it now been 9.5 years total?
If you've only been officially dating for 6 months, I don't see a problem.
Furthermore, do both of you agree that marriage is the desired progress of a successful relationship? You need to be on the same channel that you are progressing toward marriage. He may not know what you're expectations are. Do you already know whether or not he intends for the two of you to marry?
When I proposed to my wife, she already knew long before that I was looking for a wife, and she expected that if the relationship was right that it would result in me proposing to her. Have you had that conversation with him yet?
I'd start there.

There is no time limit to wait or to propose. It is said that even one entire life is not enough to understand someone or few minutes are enough to understand someone.
Take him to candlelight dinner. Start the conversation like your plans about work then life. Tell him that now you want to have partner in life to share etc.
So what does he think now ?
Who knows he may be interested in some other female ?
Male are expert in hiding the facts concerned about themselves. They will not give the exact answers but you will now have to bring this topic.
Tell him that should you look for the marriage sites ?
Best of Luck .. Do not wait too long.

I was off and on with my "male bestfriend" for nine years, well, we just got married in March of this year. So, hopefully not too much longer. The important thing is, do you want to wait? Is he worth waiting for? If he is, well, have yourself a seat and enjoy your time together!!!
The very best to both of you!!!

It is never too long if you love him and he loves you. If you think the time is right, maybe you should propose. Many women propose these days.

Yeah, you passed long, long time ago. Besides, why do you want to get married. Do you really want to be with him or is the thought of the "fairytale" wedding is what you want?

If you both are not ready, then what are you going to do ? Force him ?
Would that make it any better ?
If your ready and he is not, then you have some decisions to make. But I certainly wouldn't want him to marry you because your forced it.

Sounds to me like he's not waiting for dedication. i does not supply him anymore time, your dropping your existence waiting for this guy to advise to you. If he's not waiting for dedication, why stick around?
