Could this be the 'marriage question' in disguise?

My boyfriend whom I have been with for a year now with a lot of ups and downs, told me, over dinner:

'Do you know that you are my love? Our relationship has changed drastically and I now feel very confident about it. Before that, YOU were unsure about your feelings. NOW you are sure, and I am sure...'

I was a bit taken aback because I did not feel like entering a serious convo! So I just smiled to him...

Does he mean that we are getting serious? Any input? Thanks in advance...

I must add something here: he DID ask me to marry him several times, but that was 6 months ago. At the time, I laughed a little, not acknowledging his proposal.

Then we broke up, my fault again. When he came back to me, and that was about 3 months ago, we both made an effort NOT to fight.

Sorry for rambling! And again thanks...

amylouise agony auntfrom what you have said, i think it sounds like he is thinking about getting serious with you or even taking your relationship to the next level. I advise you to maybe talk to him about it, and find out what he is feeling.

Ears4tears agony auntYour very lucky to have found a bloke who is up front about his feeling hun so embrass it, he obviously really cares for you and it seems he is in it for the long hall.

Men arent as good at showing there feeling although most of the time they want to, i think this is his way of proving that he is committed to you, so even if you dont hear the sound of wedding bells straight away you know that there not going to be that far away. Good luck hun xx

Um. I have learned to take guys VERY literally. Guys do not play games. Girls have a tendency to try to find hidden meanings in what guys say because we are the types that say one thing but mean another.

But guys don't do this. If he intended to talk about marriage, believe me, he would have. You would have heard the word 'marry' or 'marriage' in that conversation. If he didn't then don't try to find any hidden messages in what he said. He said that he 'feels very confident right now about your relationship.' So what does that mean? It means that he feels very confident right now about your relationship.

It would appear so! But maybe on that night he just wanted you to know how much you mean to him - which is also fantastic. If he doesn't pop the question soon and you want him to; don't be too disappointed because now you know he is serious about you afterall, even though he may not quite be ready for marriage just yet. Good luck!
