No. Why buy the cow when you can have the milk for free! A true engagement has a marriage date. If there is no set date then it is all false.

This question really should be directed to your fiance. However, if he wanted to leave, wouldn't you think he would have by now? If he is there for you and your daughter that should be the most important part. It is always possible that he doesn't understand (Men, not understanding...really?) how much getting married means to you. Could he think it is not the best time financially for a wedding? Let him know how you feel, and see what he says, find out if he has some lame excuse or if it is something else.

when was the last time you talk to him about marriage? you have been engaged for a long time now, what is the hold up? Is it you or him have cold feet? If you're serious about getting married the two of you should have set a date 2 months after you accept to be his wife. Talk to him and get it all clear for the books.....good luck

I think it is not be a question of whether he will marry you or not.
If he is responsible and man enough, He SHOULD marry you to seal that commitment to you and the child. (And if I may add, I suggest that you go for a Church wedding.)
The task of bringing up children/raising a family is always a joint obligation of dad and mom. This marital/joint obligation applies to other things as well (keeping house, paying bills, providing kids an education, doing laundry, etc.).
You need to have a heart-to-heart talk with your dude and set the rules, so to speak.
In any relationship (especially marriage), shared responsibility must be established and stressed.
Cheers and regards to your family.

Sorry, Sweety. You've been engaged for 3 yrs. and have a 2 yr. old child? Have to ask....did you have a baby to try to entice him to marry you? Doesn't sound like it worked. May be time to move on if you're looking for commitment.

Yes he will marry you but you have to get him to go ahead and do what he want to do. Tell him that you want to be married and you are just waiting on him. If he love you then he will go ahead and marry you. Sometime he is just waiting on you because he are already happy with the relationship the way it is.

it really depends. You shoudl ask yourself how well do you know your "dude". I don't think anyone of us on Yahoo!Answers can give you a straight answer. I think that is entirely up to you and your experience with him. I think you should be honest with him and ask, but don't be too straightforward. I bet there is a perfectly logical explanation as to why he is acting this way.

Just by what you have said....he obviously loves you, to have been together that long and have a child together. But something is holding him back. You have been engaged for three years, and had a child who is now 2 and he is still waiting. I would seriously talk to him and find out what his holdup is.

He may not. Have you two discussed it. For some people it is better to just be together not married. You should talk to him and see what his plans might be.
