A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

i have a hard time getting my boyfriend to talk to me about things-especially in terms of the future. i am divorced and he had been engaged in the past. i never used to think i would want to get married but being with him has changed that-i know in my heart that he is the one-i want to marry him someday but i'm not sure how i can get him to talk about the future. we haven't lived together but i would want to if we could-both of us are currently living at home-financial reasons mainly.we have been friends for years and ended up becoming a couple. how can i get him to talk about what he wants-he always asks what i want when doing things. and how can i tell him what i want?

RevMick agony auntHi,

I think the problem is most people (not all) now see marriage as a way to get half of someones stuff if it doesn't work.

Divorce is such a huge business and people spend thousands of pounds/dollars to come out on top.

This has left a taint on the whole institution of marriage. I would say bring it up in a conversation sometime if you want to see how he feels.
