Something like what you wrote in your post should convey your feelings sufficiently. Let him take it from there.
Happy nuptials.
He's said he's not going anywhere ever lol. But yea, let's just say I'm glad his ex lives far far away from me. Any woman who could not be there waiting when her man returns from a year over seas.....yea we'd have some words to say the least.Jusme wrote:TexasTornado wrote:I think he'd be lost if I start acting all girly and begin hinting at things.

"So baby, I was thinking, I'd really like to get married in a year or two, what do you think about getting engaged now so we can start planning what the future might look like?"

Yea...
Welcome to our world!!
You never know how far a bullet will go when you shoot it blindly. The same with questions of the heart. If he does "run for the hills", then you two were not meant to be. I know that sounds harsh, but that is a reality you will have to face. You can't make him feel the same about you that you feel for him, you can't undo, mistrust he may feel for the gentler sex, if he has had a bad experience, and if you have different views of your future together, then, your future "together" may not be in the cards. Again, no one here knows him like you do, so we can only guess and speculate. But if fear of losing him is the only thing stopping you, then you may need to reevaluate your relationship in general. JMHO ( I'll stop channeling my inner DR. Phil now)

If he ain't on board after hearing that, I don't know what to tell you! Maybe "You know I'm armed right cowboy?"TexasTornado wrote:How about..."hey, you do know I want to marry your sexy ass right???"
"Good...just as long as you know that IS where this is headed
I accuse my wife of intentionally hitting me with questions, she knows I am mentally defenseless!!Jusme wrote:TexasTornado wrote:Welcome to a woman's world.

Lol! Last time I went to the gun show and got him a present....his response?LSUTiger wrote:Buy him a Barrett M110 50 Cal Sniper Rifle, complete with optics, magazines and at least 1000 rds of ammo. He'll ask you to marry him.
If he's used to you being blunt, simply ask him if he plans to ask you to marry him any time soon.TexasTornado wrote:I think he'd be lost if I start acting all girly and begin hinting at things.

Well... If he won't marry you, seems to me that you'd be quite a catch for anyone else.TexasTornado wrote:Lol!

Or....
Tell him you've decided not to have sex again until you are engaged to be married.
Who are we trying to punish here, him or me???
