My really good friend has been dating this girl for 3 yrs. He bought a ring 5 months ago and still nothing. He says he's been waiting for the right time. Do you think he's really just waiting or do you think he's rethinking it?

she's my friend too and it's hard knowing something like this and she's always talking about wanting to marry him. i want to just be like he bought the damn thing over 5 months ago and i'm sorry but i don't know what he's doing. of course it's not my "business", but he's told a few of his friends that he's always confided in and we've all been wondering what's up with him and he only says i'm waiting. but it's like if you really wanted this wouldn't you not have been able to wait, wouldn't you want to have done this as soon as possible? I asked here because I'm curious what other people might think.

He must want to be sure. Maybe something gave him pause and he is seeing how it works out. No need to rush into something with a 57% fail rate.

It'll take time. Don't push him - the time will come because once the ring is inserted, it would be a waste of money to have the wedding and what have yous go down the drain. Just wait.

Some guys buy for 2 reasons ....
1) Cause it makes them instantly cool ..
2) Cause it's the thing to do when they've been with a g/f for awhile ...
If he needs to think so long .. it's a sign ...

It sounds like he's rethinking it... he might even decided he didn't want to be with her, but he doesn't want to break her heart. It's hard to tell, though... but I wish them the best of luck!

He has cold feet and sounds like he isn't too sure. If he doesn't ask soon, I'll bet he will never ask. And if he doesn't ask soon, she should let him go. Or it could be that she has let him know that she isn't ready to settle down. Who knows?

it's his personal life - for all you know they may have some issues to work out before he feels comfortable getting married.
Is it really your business?

If he bought a ring, it's likely he didn't buy it for nothing. SHHHHH!

I have no idea, but this doesn't sound like any of your business.
