writes: Paul makes statements about our relationship that contradict themselves. He said in the beginning that he wanted openness because we were in this relationship for life. Bought a house, gives me everything a woman could want, said we are growing old together. We agreed to try living together to see how things would go. He won't make the commitment of marriage. If we are together for life; what could be stopping him from commiting? Reply to this Question Share |

Well there might be various reasons as to why he is afraid to marry you. Perhaps, his parents had a failed marriage or he has witnessed other people's pain of divorce. However, in a caring relationship compromise is crucial and if he is not taking your feeling into consideration, you might re-evaluate whether you want to be with him or not.
He might have gotten quite comfortable with the entire situation after you two moved in together, and may even feel as if "why buy the cow, if you can milk the cow for free". Perhaps you should move out and remind him of how miserable he is without you. Perhaps then he will take your feeling into consideration dear.
