I have been thinking about popping the question, as I love my significant other, but I am concerned as sometimes it seems that we don't connect like we used to. I tend to think that it is just because we have been together so long and relationships must change. I love her dearly and she is my best friend. Should I be so worried?!

Do you mean get married? In case if you worried about your relationship, you'll need to talk this out with her. Ask for her help to settle down with your trust crisis. It's bad for relationship. Many bad triggers will slip in when one of them starts to worry about their relationship furthermore he/she makes the decision by its own. Talk this with your partner, never take the assumption by your own. A length of relationship cannot measure the reliability of a relationship. The most important, are you both ready for the next step of relationship. Use a good approaching, don't push her over it, don't show as if you do want for it. If she's not, then give her some times to convince her heart for the marriage.

WOW, that's great that you've been with this person for that long of a time. Is this the first time that you've been with somebody this long? Just wondering though. about the question that you are wanting to ask, that's marriage, right? If you are wanting to ask your sig, I'd ask them, and just go from there. All they could say is "No". I know how you feel though. You are scared, and nervous of popping the question to your sig other. That's natural for one to feel like that. Just try to stay calm, and approach with your sig other very slowly, and ask them gently. So, that way you won't scare them off. Good luck to you in asking your sig other. If they do say yes, I wish you all the best of luck in the future with happiness and joy to you both. take care friend.

the question that you must ask yourself if: can you imagine your life without her? if the answer is no, then, what are you waiting for???? relationships grow and change with time. but love is permanent!
