i have been with my partner for five years and just a year ago we have decided to finally tie the knot. but as days passed by i learn to know my man more. there are times that i want to give up on him. we are two different persons and what i hate most is that i can't talk to him about our differences. even if i try to start a smooth discussion of our differences he will break out and we end up fighting. plus he still feels single. he still wants to do what a single man can do. even in finances. his priority is his ever beloved car. there are really times i want to just freak out and end but im still here. but the question that remains is that is this love or pride that i stay?

I'm telling you that guys in general really take more time to mature than women. At his age maybe he still wants to do a lot of things because he is not yet really ready for that life. I'm not saying that you go separate, rather just give him more time and explain to him that having a married life is very different from you being boyfriend/girlfriend.

Why would you want to stay in a relationship for pride when it should be for love. I think you should think this through and re-evaluate your relationship. Breaking a relationship can be extremely hard.
There are certain things that men are pretty stubborn about and like to do alone. They can change if they are made to understand theri actions from a different perspective and also if they can be made to understand without getting into an argument.
