I'm 25 and been with my man for 6 years. We've been living together for the past 4 years and I feel that it's that time in our lives where we need to make some serious decisions about our future - i.e marriage.
Recently I have been having all these doubts about him. As much as I love him, I feel there are a lot of things that he needs to change about himself before we take the next step. Some issues that I have raised with him concern his lack of independent. Much of his life revolves around me. He doesn't hang out with his friends much, he's a yes/no man..basically he's willing to do anything to please me.
My issue is that for me to move forward in our relationship, I want him to be more independent. but he lacks the motivation to change his life. I don't wanna be the gf that nags for him to change. I'm at a crossroads in our relationship and I am willing to give up 6 years to find someone who will challenges me.
It makes me so upset that I have invested all this time and effort building my life with him only to think i could throw it all away. To make matters worse, he is a genuinely nice guy...any girl would be lucky to have him.
Please give me some advice.
