I told him that 27 or 28 would be fine with me...may i ask, is it a sort of a joke? Or are guys who are serious asked those kind of questions? I need an answer especially from you guys...pls..... and another thing he wants us both to have a business in my name and he is the one who is very excited for the processing of our application papers, i appreciated him for that and i come to think of his future plans for us,am i right of thinking this way? Is all of his actions now speaks for our future? i hope so......... Reply to this Question Share |

The question about marriage/kids in itself is not strange but I just thought his answer was! I suppose his answer could show that he is committed to you and simply thinking long-term. Only you will know yourself what context to put his reply in. All the best.

It's not that strange, my other half asked me the same question, because there's thing we both wanted to do before children come into the picture like travelling/hot air ballooning/sky diving etc...I'm not too sure about your guy's motives about setting up a business in your name, but my other half hasn't set up a joint bank account yet! lol!

I would be very concerned about his plans to have a business in your name. How much do you trust this guy? Have you been together long? It would be very easy for him to rack up huge debts which you would legally be landed with. Does he have any personal debt problems? Do not let him set up a business in your name if you have no idea of his personal financial status. If in doubt you should be able to get a credit check done on him relatively easily. Sorry if this sounds very suspicious but better safe than sorry huh?
In respect of the marriage/kids thing, it is a bit strange that he says he wants to "be prepared" for it. It sounds like a possible commitment problem to me. When this question crops up its usually within a serious relationship and the guy either wants marriage/kids in the very near future or either doesnt want them at all and is trying to suss out how you feel.
