Does it sound like he hinting around about marriage ?

The hints:

We live together

We've been together for 2 1/2 years

We share expenses

We've talked about the future

(I can't have no more babies but tells his friends we've talked about it)

He's talked about having a joint account

He's told me he'd like to get married but turned around and said no we're not getting married

He's asked me about my ring size and what cut I like

He mentioned how cool it would be to get married at the the state stadium( I'm a buckeye fan)

He's mentioned saving a dress from a friends wedding for my own ( I was a bridesmaid)

He's shared the song he'd like to dance to if he got married john legend(all of me)

His aunts have said to me it's gonna happen soon(I'm fulfilling the role of his wife)

His friends all call me his wife already

He has played around with calling me his wife

He's asked if I would get married at the court house

Yesterday he started to say something about it then stalled about saying it

When I ask about it he either ignores me about it or tells me he don't wanna get married but then he throws the idea out there again

I'm just wanting to know is he hinting that he's wanting to get married eventually maybe soon??

Help would be awesome thanks

No it sounds like he's living in fantasy land. He's telling you what you want to hear.

Sounds more like he's hinting that he's wanting you to believe he wants to get married because he knows that's what you want, so he's telling you what you want to hear while being sure to make no promises to which he can be held.

If a guy really wanted to marry a woman then he would not "play around with calling" her his wife, he would make her his wife.

"Does it sound like he's about to pop the question"

No. As things stand he enjoys all the benefits of marriage with none of the responsibilities so he has nothing to gain by marrying you. He could dump you in a heartbeat and be free to walk away assets intact without any further obligation to you.

He's "talked" and "told you" and "mentioned" and "asked" about marriage but what has he done about it? Nothing.

Don't believe what a guy SAYS, believe what he DOES (or DOESN'T do)

This is the third time you have asked a bunch of strangers what is going on in your boyfriend.

Here's an idea - ask him.

What I mean is you sit him down and say let's talk. You've said abc on the one hand and Def on the other hand. Tell me exactly what it is you want and if it is not marriage then please don't imply it like you have been doing - it hurts me every time you raise my expectations and then change your mind.

This way, you'll have your answer from the source.

Also, what do you want? Do you want marriage or not? Then tell him that. If it a deal breaker for either of you the you can both make informed decisions accordingly.

Also, his aunts are not him. They know as much as you do about his plans - which is nothing apparently.

YES YES YES He most certainly hinting at marraige-I would say he is on the verge of popping the question but just testing the water. Did you respond when to any of his hints.Give him time and space and he will ask when he is comfortable with it Best luck. NORA B.

possibly yes . But these are how you are seeing these scenarios and yet it may all just be by coincidence.

Try to maybe put the idea into your head that he isn't going to ask you to marry him and then if/when he does it may be a surprise.

Rather than trying to puzzle it together and then start getting wound up that he hasn't actually done it .

Good luck
