A reader, anonymous, writes (11 March 2015):

If you're both under 25, maybe neither of you are mature enough for marriage.

Maybe he's still running around with his buddies; because he still thinks like a boy, and not a man.

Just because you're engaged, doesn't mean he has to be at your beck and call every minute of the hour. An engagement ring doesn't justify clinginess. He still gets to have time to himself. He's probably having his last hurrah, knowing he will soon be domesticated; and can no longer run wild and free. His friends are probably demanding more of his time, fearing they will see less of him; and miss him once he actually becomes your husband.

When you start preparing for the wedding, the bride starts to get all the attention. Things will shift. The groom gets pushed aside pretty much. It's all about you once you start planning the wedding and reception. That is, if you plan to have a wedding.

Is there a reason he goes out and doesn't invite you along? Are you a homebody? If he was always into his friends, an engagement ring doesn't mean he will give them up, you know! If you're already feeling neglected; maybe he's not the one to marry.
