well I'm rather fond of the straight-approach, myself. Tell him exactly how you feel about the matter and ask him how he feels. I think two years is sufficient time to approach him about this subject. Tell him that you don't want to invest a lot of time with him if he isn't going to make a serious committment.  |

yup straight forward approach but be prepared for him not to be "ready"  |

Sit him down and tell him exactly how you feel, and don't sugar coat any of it. Make him explain his feelings as well. Most importantly, follow your heart.  |

you need to basically give him an ultmatum... you don't want to scare him if it's only been a few months but if your sitting at 8+ months...it's time to take the next step  |

I say wait until the kids are gone. Then you don't have that problem with step-parenting. That will give him time to build his house. In the meantime, make him "wine and dine" you. Courting is fun.  |

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I think you should let him know that you would love to be his wife, but I don't see the need to really push the issue. Marriage is just a piece of paper, a relationship is more important. You have a great guy, and for that alone you are lucky  |

Well I cant help ya. I've been with the same guy for almost nine years and have a daughter with him. We are getting married this September. I gave him ultimatiams and it didnt work. That was four years ago lol. Just ask him what he thinks about the subject and see what he says.  |
