How important is engagement?
Hi,
First off I'm new - hello everyone. And thanks in advance for any advice.
I guess if there are any guys in here I'm interested to know what they think of engagement? How important is it to them to propose? Or do they think it's a crock and they only do it because their girl expects it?
My b/f and I have been together over a year and have been talking about marriage for several months. He moved in with me about a month ago and we had agreed we wouldn't just live together. That we'd get married shortly after. Well I bring up the topic today (we haven't talked about it in over a month) and he said "in a couple of months". Well that's the answer I got a couple of months ago AND a couple of months before that. Is he wanting to be cheap and not get a ring? Or does he not think the engagement process is important to lead to the getting married process? We've played with the idea of eloping and I guess that means no engagement but doesn't every guy know how it works? That every girl wants to be proposed to?
Thanks guys!
