I talked to a new guy on this app, but we ended up not meeting as he’s wanting marriage & babies until 5 years IF it works out. And that’s honestly a waste of time for me. If I was younger & met this guy when I was 18 then I could of been married by now but no. I’m 26 still no husband. So I want marriage & baby in 1-2 years.
A guy I dated that never met my family wasted many years of my life. So I have no time to waste. if it’s 5 years and living together than that’s fine , or else it’s pointless date& have sex 5 years and no ring.

Let’s say you don’t live together until marriage. Or no sex til marriage and dont meet family til marriage.
You would wait 5 years? That’s too long time for me even my family agrees 5 years is waste of time

I think two years is a good test of a relationship.
4 years waste of time. I won’t be having sex with someone 3-4 years.
If I was wanting to have children, I would expect to be married at the end of two years. That means engaged after about one year to fifteen months. I proposed to my now-wife 27 months after we started dating, but she was 59 at that time and obviously we are not having children.
I wish I was a guy ☹️ because I do want children but no guy gives me my expectations. I wish I can propose to someone in one year. No guy will do that no guy asks me to meet family.
Why do you think that is? Feel free to DM me if you would prefer.
I don't know I met one guy wen I was 18 he’s my best friend we dated but he deny meet family , & he says he’s single & barley now as im 26 he says he has love for me. But still it’s same we don’t meet family. No pics
I talked to church guy online but he wants marriage til 4/5 years & he’s my age 26. But he had past serious relationships that ended I assume as he didn’t want baby or marriage.
I told him I want baby and marriage 1-2 years.
So that guy not the one for me.
Then Im seeing a new guy that’s long distance & we’ll meet in 2 wks. But I don't know if he’ll be my serious boyfriend too. We did talk of Marriage & he said he’s too young for marriage. But we did talk of living together & his family r religous & want him married first before living with girl.
It would be nice live together & marriage later in future.
But yea I don't know what age I’ll finally have a husband or guy meeting family living with me at least
It would be nice if I live with the long distance guy & that way I’m apart of his family, and we have pregnancy , but I don't know what future holds.
It alll depends on the guy if he agrees do all this.
That’s y I’m stuck alone unable settle down
I hope the long distance guy is the right guy for me. I don’t understand y girls since 15 get many bfs come home to meet family & magically everyone wants marry her & they don’t happen for my life
Well, my first plan of action is to wait `til I get a girl that likes me and doesn't wanna get the shit beat out of her. Those kind are REALLY hard to find!! With most girls, if you don't beat `em up, they just won't stick around! I don't know why!
Then, if she's not interested in getting beat up every few days, and actually DOES wanna stick around, she'll have to stick for a couple years. At least long enough to find out if she lovers me or just my money. If she actually turns out to be here for me, she's PROBABLY a keeper and I'll consider asking her to marry me.
But in between those 5 years , are u living together? Meeting families , having sex?
that’s y I’m saying marriage is good in 1-2 years as I don’t want have sex with a boyfriend for 5 years and never live together never meet family.
That’s y 5 years is too long to live with a guy and have baby. And meet family
Of course not! The only sex I've had was 4 times with the girl from, `82, 3.5 times with the girlfriend from, `84 and possibly well over 1000 times with the girl from `91 to `01, which stopped in mid `94, except for two more fucks both taking place Dec. 12... one in `94, the other in `95.
I guess I’m religous and don’t want be having sex for 5 years with a guy that might break up with me and not even marry me. That’s y I would want marriage 1-2 years. I also don’t want wait 5 or more years til I can live with a guy. As in my household u can’t live with a boyfriend , only til marriage.
We got married after a year and a half of dating. We met each other's parents and got to know them very well early on though, which I think is very important if you plan on getting married.
I’ve never met a guys parents no one wants to marry me LOL
at least 4 years. though if you're in your 30s maybe 2years
So what do you do in a relationship 4 years? Just date that’s it? Never live together never meet family just 4 years dating & sex?
I don’t like idea of not living with a guy until 5 years and never meering family til 5 years that’s y I think marriage in 1-2 years is goof
Becuz then u breakup in 5 years and relationship was waste , never met family and no baby. Just wasted time having sex & dates?
You say that but imagine how bad the breakup is when you're married and have a kid..
@Juxtapose it’s normal now a days. It’s normal now to divorce too, it rare for a relationship to last forever. But it sad if you are old and never had a boyfriend , never had experienced a relationship. That worse.
Worse be old and neevr of had a baby. I wouldn’t mind I’m divorced , or alone with baby , I would be happy I at least got to experience what true love is like for once.
See if you don't plan to mitigate failure then you are planning to fail. If you just take a little extra time finding the guy and vetting him, then you can have a lifelong relationship. My grandparents have had those and my aunt stay with her husband until he died. I know it's possible, and I think it would be a sad thing to fall in love with somebody and then have that all broken apart, have a broken family and a kid living in a broken family. I lived with divorced parents and it's not fun..
*My grandparents have had that and my aunt stayed with her husband until he died
@Juxtapose mostly everyone I know is divorced alone with baby. It’s kinda normal. Only if u have super good luck u stay perfect family forever. I’m not putting false expectations in my head.
But at least u are happy living life with your baby then being alone forever old and never of had a kid.
@Juxtapose it’s more sad u date guy 5 years and he wasted your time and break up with guy in 5 years. I ain’t have boyfriend sex with someone for 5 years and no ring
Marriage isn't going to make men commit anymore than they would have before.
If you expect the guy to leave or for you to eventually get sick of him then just adopt.
We waited 18 months, but we were in the process of moving to another country at the time. As soon as we moved and got settled in, we were married.
3 year minimum before proposing. Thrn however long it takes for everything else to be worked out. My sister was engaged about a year before I will be (tomorrow), but she's waiting until her boyfriend graduates from welding school.
I think anything more than two years is a waste of time unless you're still in college or something similar.
You don't know shit about a person in 2 years and you want to commit your whole life to them and have a baby with them? Come on..
I know someone in my family that got married in one year. And everyone in the family is so happy. Makes no sense
Many religous people marry fast in one year. I don’t want waste 5 years having sex with someone then we breakup and again 5 more years having sex with new guy…
Well like I said in the other response, plan better. Being a serial monogamist and going from one failed relationship to another sounds exhausting and I would rather just be single my whole life then go through that shit.
3-4 years is the minimum to get to know someone. It's too risky to rush it
