Is my boyfriend serious about me?


Question Posted Wednesday November 28 2012, 7:53 am

hi, we have been together for a 3 and half years now. we love each other and we live together. he's a single father and he has a kid with his ex girlfriend. it's just that sometimes when i hint him to buying me a ring or does he see me marrying me in the future he always replies by saying, ''u never know'' or he just changes the subject with a smile, which i don't understand. i'm thinking now, he's not that serious about me even though he says he loves me and sees us in the future. so, guys if a guys changes a subject, what exactly does he thinking? thanks

some guys are afraid to commit to get married. some are even scared,and ask him, tell him how u feel, if he changes the subject then ask his family if he has had any promblems with marriage or his other relationships.

Dont worry about it, there could be any number of innocent reasons.

Maybe he's just a bit scared because he said it to his ex and then things didnt work out.
He wants things to work with you so he's making the effort to move slower this time - having the kid might've been too big a step last time.

Maybe he's already bought a ring, or is actually looking for one, this would also explain his behaviour. If I had just bought or planning to propose, I'd certainly say "u never know" with a small smile.

He says he loves you, that he sees you together in the future? I wouldnt say that if I didnt mean it. I'd say that the most likely reason is that he's a bit nervous, so he changes the subject and gives you a smile or a kinda 'mysterious' reply to let you know that its what he wants, but he's just not ready to talk yet.

You could try asking different questions, that could indicate the same thing, be a bit more circular.

You are over thinking. If he changes the subject then he doesn't want to talk about it.

Ok. Apparently he dosen't want to talk about the marriage subject yet if he keeps on avoiding the question. Most men are scared to get married because its more effort. And most think it just complicates your relationship. When they think about marriage they think forever with a person. They might don't want to admit that they're scared, but dnt keep pestering him with the subject... It might get him annoyed and probably ends up becoming into an argument.. So every now or then try to bring it up, but not occassionally.. Give him time to think a little more (: also, Be PATIENT !
