Have you asked yourself why it is so important for you to get married? If you two are really happy does it matter if you have a certificate?It sounds like you are already committed if you live together and obviously love each other as you've been together for 4 years. I don't think that you can do anything to make someone want to get married. Does he have a reason for not wanting to get married? I know that a lot of men are scared because they think that it will change everything.Just try not to ruin your relationship by going on about marriage all the time as that's the last thing you want to do.

You can't actually get him to that committed level, if he is not ready yet, then he is simply not ready. All you can do really is drop subtle hints, but don't come on to strong and risk pushing him away. Don't make him feel like he is being backed into a corner, let time teke its toll and im sure he will come round to that way of thinking eventually.
All the best x
