Do the two of you ever talk about getting married? How does he feel about the subject? I think you are from the generation that feels less complete if you are just living with someone and not married. That's okay. There's nothing wrong with having those values. Just make sure he feels the same way. If he doesn't it could be that he just needs more time. My b/f and I lived together for 5 years before we got married. I think we always knew we would at some point, we just had to wait until we both felt ready. If he's open tot he idea then it might be time to take the next step. We never get too old to want to feel like we "belong" to someone, and sometimes a marriage certificate is the best way to feel "whole". Good luck.
