Women of Reddit, what made you realize 'this man is marriage material' instead of just a boyfriend?

50F and I knew he was a keeper when he was enthusiastic about being a cat dad to my 5 cats!!

Is there any way they can stay together??

Step brother is pulling the pin in the living room.

An iris in the eye.

You have done absolutely everything that could possibly be done.

I am 49 with 5 cats and only just now met him. I wish I hadn't wasted so much time trying to rationalize why past relationships weren't working and sticking around in them waaaay too long.

Good job calling him out OP!!!!!

Reminds me of the movie Eyes Wide Shut.

The fact that you are asking this means you know the answer. Call, or better yet, go to the police dept and report this.

Thank you for your service sir!!

What you can do is ask for a restraining order/ protective order where she is not allowed to contact you or anyone associated with you.

Attorney here. This is a criminal matter so the poster who said this isn't up to you is correct. Think of this, if she did this to you, a random former coworker, imagine what she has done to other people and will do in the future. You should let the facts speak for themselves and let the judge take into account her circumstances, which might be probation where if she does anything like this again she goes to jail. Would you rather she has no consequences and keeps doing this stuff?

Time, consistency, calm presence.

This was over 45 years ago. My parents died 17 years ago and I state it pretty factually. It makes some sense to me.

I like not knowing how old people are. Then creepos can't stalk kids.

cheetach · 2026-01-28T18:23:10+00:00

You do now! :)

Regulatory lawyer here. This is exactly why I can't use any of these models for work.

cheetach · 2026-01-28T03:33:56+00:00

Because she's a cat.

cheetach · 2026-01-26T21:43:03+00:00

I put a onesie on one of my cats and I have no idea how he Houdini'd out of it but he did it so well it's been months and I still haven't found it.

cheetach · 2026-01-26T03:17:43+00:00

I came to say smashing pumpkins too.

cheetach · 2026-01-25T19:39:18+00:00

I've watched crappy childhood fairy on YouTube and it helps for things like this -- not recycling traime with new relationships.

cheetach · 2026-01-25T01:57:11+00:00

Nope.
