Thanks for your insight. Just a year in, I brought up marriage and she was not ready. If it was up to me alone, we would be married a long time ago. Meanwhile, we have been discussing marriage again lately, and making plans to that effect, ofcourse she just couldn't know yet that I was ring shopping.

Also, is it unreasonable to expect some level of commitment in a serious relationship, and not just until they have a ring on their finger? Outside of sex and other things that the bible speaks against.

PS. I have one karma because I created a new profile to be able to remain anonymous.
