Yes, I do feel that way.

She obviously doesn't know about the 2 year rule. Lemme inform you...the 2 year rule is that if a guy hasn't proposed and then married you within that 2 year time frame...he ain't gonn. I don't feel bad for her....she gets what she expects....How do you tell her? Tricky question...you can ask her if they set a date, etc. If not, ask her why. If she claims financial reasons from the guy...then he's just stringing her along. If she's a good friend...you can just come right out and tell her. People (or her family) have probably already told her that so she probably won't want to hear it.

For me, it doesn't matter how long their relationship was and still not married. There are some peoples who are very happy + committed each other without any piece of papers (wedding ceremony) and i do believe of God's ceremony, but i would rather to say that "There's nothing to do with how long you have been engaged as long as you are happy + committed each other (means good provider) Well, no worries at all!
All of us, having a different opinion with this situation so in respect of the questioneer, it's all up to them! Just carry it on your own life.

This is someone who has not been asked by the guy yet but things are good so she jsut stays with him and doesn't rock the boat by pushing him into marrying her.
I know someone like this and her excuse is that he has asked but she said no because she doesn't want to go through divorce. They have 2 school aged kids and have been together for 10 years. She wears an engagement ring too.
I think he hasn't asked.

No...my grandparents lived together from 1945 until 1975...and thats when they married. She was finally convinced her exhusband died during the war. He loved he from the beginning and never wanted to let go...despite being second best. I believe that its only a given if the male wants to marry...and he will hold out until the end of time. If its the gal.....she is holding on for nothing. Women dont hold on as long as men, where love is concerned. And if they do...its pointless.

I may feel for her if she is unhappy. But I would keep my opinions to myself, unless she asks for feedback. Who am I to say that this long engagement is going nowhere? How do I know what the Universe has planned for her path of relationship? If this turns out to be one of those "How Harry Met Sally" kind of deals, I will dance at her wedding. If not, she will have a nonintrusive, noncontrolling, compassionate shoulder to cry on.

If she's happy, what's the big deal? You must not have lived through the sixties when most couples decided they "didn't need a piece of paper" to validate their love. Lots of folks waited a long time before they realized its the rite and vow before their friends that is important, not the paper.
Sticking your nose into someone else's relationship business is a good way to get it bloody. Leave her alone.

I was that girl. It did happen. 13 years together. Married for 5. She's looking forward to the dress and the party. Tell her "why buy the pig when all you want is a little sausage?"

My grandfather always warned me about things like that. He had a saying..."Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" More women should think about this instead of giving themselves over so easily.
But to answer the question I do feel bad for people like that. I would most likely ask her if she truly believes that they will get married and then in the discussion try to explain why I don't see it happening.

No, because chances are if she hasnt pushed the man to marry her after ten years then she probably wont want to get married either. Some people get engaged as its the next step in a relationship then realise they dont actually want the piece of paper.

I feel elated for her, not sad. First of all, she's enjoyed 10 years with the guy (1/8th of her life) and hopes to marry him. How can anybody - other than the guy in question - say it ain't gonna happen? Our lives require hopes and dreams; I feel that her life is just fine. Not perfect, of course, but whose is??
