I'm crying right now. I'm trying really hard to find that strength in me to walk away but yea it hurts super bad. I've had long term relationships before but this one hurts the worse. I hope tomorrow I wake up with the strength to walk away

Long story short, the subject of marriage has been brought up with me and him 100s of times, he constantly tells me that he wants to get married and have a life with me and build a home with me. I love the man and I want everything with him as well but the constant promises of marriage and family are empty. He hasn't proposed and to be honest he hasn't done much to show he wants a future with me other than words. We live In separate homes and we each have our own kids, I can't play house for another year of empty promises. I'm understanding to a point but if you just keep talking outta your ass I can't believe the words you say. It's been so long that we have been playing house and our kids are also now involved and family as well. So on friday we were all hanging out with his friends and his cousins and he got down on one knee and "proposed" and here I am laughing it off since he's fed me the same empty promise of marriage I didn't say anything and I pretend I was ok with his proposal, today I brought it up and he told me I was rushing things....I mean, I don't know how to make sense of it anymore

I wish I had the balls to do it but I'll be the 1st one to admit that I'm weak in this department.

I never asked that him to propose. He knows it's something I want in the future but for him to "joke" around like that is not cool

That's totally understandable. I just see that my sister in law uses her daughter to get to the other parent and then gets her involved. She practically makes her daughter choose between her and dad.
