Knowing the Right Time to Propose
Dating and being in a relationship is one thing but it is important to know and recognize when the right time is to take the relationship to the next level. People like to stay in their comfort zone and that is what you can be when you are dating. You are unsure about commitment but where you are is fun. But what you need to appreciate is that time is ticking away and you are never going to get that time back.
Marriage is a massive step and while you may make a great boyfriend and girlfriend, the fear could be there that you may not necessarily make a great husband and wife. But if this is the case, why are you dating? Are you doing so just for the hell of it or do you genuinely see a future together? It is important that the other person knows exactly how you feel about this and vice versa.
Dating is about having fun. You go out and have fun dates be it going out to the movies, bungee jumping or playing bingo. You may have even met playing bingo and now bingo forms a big part of your relationship. If this is the case, you don’t have to worry about not playing any more bingo just because you are married. You may play less if you have kids but you will be doing less of everything.
The fact of the matter is that there is no right or wrong time to propose, per say as long as you are headed in that general direction. If you both feel that your future is wedded to that of the other person that you might as well just bite the bullet and do it. How will things be different in two years time other than the fact that you will be two years older?
Often the biggest factor to cause paralysis regarding this issue is the fear of the unknown. That things are going to change and that they are going to change for the worst. This is something you shouldn’t be worried about. Instead of being worried and scared you should be excited.
Excited about all of the new and different things you can do now simply because you are married. In any event, what is wrong with formalizing your relationship and making it official? Nowadays you don’t need to be married to be living together. Neither do you need to be married in order to have kids and start a family. But if you are going to do all these things, why not do it?
So once you work out what the right time is, spend some time working out how you are going to do it. To many women, this is the most important aspect of the whole process. Nine times out of ten, they are going to say yes, but they want to see you go to some effort to make it romantic. Who doesn’t love romance?
