xoNellyxo agony auntHi thanks for your advice. I happend to ask him out of the blues if he wanted to get married he first laughed then i just told him it wasnt a joke and that i was been serious. He then said to me yes one day. Im just starting to think that alcohol is more important than taking responsibility for what he has got. And also RCK answer to your question yes he was born and raised samoan moved here 8 years ago. I also thought that samoan culture after you have a baby and that its right to ask your g.f to marry you like all his brothers and cousins have. But in my case its just not happening.

QuirkLady agony auntAfter five years I think it's time to ask him where you see the relationship going. I don't think it makes you look desperate at all to want to know if he plans to make it legal. Give it a try.

Good luck.

This depends? If your partner was brought up in Samoa then he would of asked you by now as having a kid together you've pretty much committed to each other. If he were brought up in another country say NZ then you should take the chance and just ask him. He may just be nervous that you might say no or may want to just wait a little longer.
