If you have to ask, then No. You shouldn't have to ask for advice on this one. Either you do or you don't.

Just get engaged, Its not a promise, its the potential prospect of the idea of marriage, if it doesnt work, then what doesnt kill you only makes you stronger..........

A 3-year-old boy examined his testicles while taking a bath.
 "Mom", he asked, "Are these my brains?"
 "Not yet," she replied.

lol, my boy was about 2 and a half years old and he noticed them. He asked what they were and then swore "but they weren't there yesterday"

My opinion on this is simple. First you must ask yourself why you want to get married and what marriage means to you. Many people say not to get married (if you're under the age of 25), and that you have a lot of things to live through.

I believe one gets married to make life better. You as a couple work together to achieve great and beautiful things. So if you want to make that commitment, go for it. I have no oppositions.

Thanks for all the great advice.  I'm thinking a semi-long engagement may be what we need.  However, I am completely excited about our future together.  We've been crazy about each other since the day we met, fights and all.  There is nothing the both of us want more than to be together forever.  Personally, I can not wait to start a family with this wonderful guy.

It is such a wonderful feeling to know that you have found that one person that you want to spend the rest of your life with, that is so great.

Just take your time, decide instead of slide.

That means...make sure it's everything that both of you want and decide on it together.

If you slide into it really fast without deciding first, it usually don't turn out good.

I wish you both the best and hope everything works out just the way you want it.

Good Luck And God Bless

I got some advise from someone that made PERFECT SENSE.  "You should get married when you know you don't have too."  I didn't take her advise but that's beside the point.  Here is my point.  It seems you are very happy with him.  You will NEVER get to know him 100%.  Let me tell ya why.  When you get married things change, when you have kids things change, when you turn 30 things change, when your kids move out things change, when you're retired things change.  Life is always changing and you are always growing and you will change too.  You don't know how you will react to these life events and neither will he.  You have to trust that the person you are with is someone whom you can talk to about anything (he may not see eye to eye with you but...), and someone who is passionate about the same things you are and you to him.  That is the only way that you will make sure you are on the same page.  It's not a guarantee that things will be perfect (NO MARRIAGE IS PERFECT) but you can come close.  I have been married for 5yrs and still struggling but we do love each other and I am very happy that I have a good father for my little girls.  CONGRATS ON YOUR FUTURE ENGAGEMENT.
