I really like this guy I have been dating. At first I was not going to consider committing to him,but now I am. What do I do now if I already told him that I am not ready to get married?

Guys should know that women are a very strange breed. Even if you said you would not commit to him when you told him you wouldn't. This is all very simple: contiue with with relationship and watch for signs that he is ready to take it further and then just have your level of commitment fall into place! Make sure he is the one though...too many people just settling!

You are so right. That is what I am afraid of.

Hi there Nesha! I think that saying that you don't want to marry him for now means that you don't want to marry him ever so I really don't see anything wrong with it.

Yeah. I know it would sound bad. Although I am afraid to get married again.

Did he ask for marriage already? Well since you are intending to be committed with the guy you should be expecting him to propose if the feeling is mutual. Well for me that will be a for him if in case he ask and you refuse. If he sticks to you then I would say he is sincere and is willing to wait. Just be sure that you have a valid excuse why you are not ready for marriage I guess he would understand it.

In relationships, each person in the couple needs to talk to the other about these types of issues. Talking, being honest and opened is part of being in a relationship. And each one should appreciate the fact that the other is being opened, honest, and trust you.

Getting married is a real issue especially on us girls. There are some people whose been in relationship for long years but don't want to get married and there are some who just met for a few days and want to get married soon. I think it is all about timing and analyzing your feelings because sometimes we just feel that we found the "one" we want to spend our life with. If you don't want to get married now, it is ok but think clearly if you are really in love with him or just feeling in love with him.

Think it through. Usually your first instinct is true. There was some reason why you told him that. Make sure he is the one. If you made a list of pros and cons which side would fill up quickest? Are you being honest with yourself? Good luck!

Honesty is always the best policy. If your commitment feelings have changed say so. Sit down and have a heart to heart. People are not mind readers. You have to be able to talk. Communication is key, put the cards on the table.

The best thing you can do is sit down and talk to him. Tell him excally how you feel and don't hold back. Tell him that your feelings will change. If he loves you he will understand no matter what the situation.
