 Theres no need to rush things - its great that you feel so committed to her already, and the fact you think you will spend the rest of your lives together means you have plenty of time to prepare! Take the time to properly plan how you are going to ask her; just having a plan in mind may help you feel more at ease. Have you discussed the future with her at all? Whether you both want kids, a house in the country or apartment in the city, etc? Maybe once the picture of your future is a bit clearer your nerves will subside - and its a pretty good way of gauging whether or not she'll say yes!
Good luck - just spend a bit of time thinking it all through and everything should be fine. :)

If you've not quite got the nerve yet, then chances are you're not ready. Give it more time.

If you don't have enough courage to ask a woman to get married, maybe you're not ready to be married.

 You don't have the guts for a reason. You say that you're fairly sure she'll say yes but I think you can't bring yourself to ask her because a small part of you is afraid that she will say no. Has she given you reason to believe that she would say no? Even though you seem to be sure, are you really ready...maybe that's why you can't bring yourself to do it.
Sometimes if we're not a 100% about something we will delay doing it...and we might not even know the reason.
If you are really sure than take a deep breath and do it. If you feel so strongly about her you should ask her. What's the worst that can happen? If she says no or that she needs time or something like that, it doesn't mean she doesn't feel the same...she just might not be ready. But I doubt this will happen. I think she'll say yes.
Good luck :)

There r many ways to do it without actually asking! Valentines day is coming up, they actually sell fake roses that u can put a ring in it!or A teddy bear w a card, n u write inside"will u marry me"! Or take her out 2 dinner n tell your waiter 2 help out! They will! Order dessert even if she don't want it n tell the waiter to sit on top of it!! Good luck! Valentins day is da perfct day!!

hey man I would just tell her what you said here. If you love just tell her how you feel. Say what is in your heart and all will be well. V-Day is around the bend it would be a good time to pop the question. good luck
