Ambrose2007: Well, Athens, my sense is that if marriage is proposed, and the partner receiving the proposal either is hesitant or declines (if even for the moment, with the promise of future reconsideration), then the question HAS been answered. ....
Ambrose2007: Well, Athens, my sense is that if marriage is proposed, and the partner receiving the proposal either is hesitant or declines (if even for the moment, with the promise of future reconsideration), then the question HAS been answered. I do see it as an "either-or" proposition. I can't imagine asking that question, and ever considering re-asking it if I were refused.
If the partner receiving the proposal is doubtful or hesitant, it's obvious they are not ready for a long-term commitment, and may never be.
marriage = long-term commitment,
not just a paper and not just a societal notion, as many want to portray it.
Can anyone, for instance, imagine a doctor-to-be refusing to take Hippocratic Oath?

Laura25: Most of us had previous marriage or two that end up in divorce.
A devastating experience.
We do know better than taking a marriage proposal lightly.
What would make you to take the plunge and how long you think you need to know them before you say "I do"?
Are you comfortable making this decision?

Well Laura, I've never been married, but I did live with the kids mother and the kids in the same house for 6 years. Basically it was a marriage by Swedish standards (Sambo/Cohabitation) and mine.
If it felt right in my heart, I'd surly take the plunge. I would feel comfortable moving in with her maybe after 6-8 months.
I don't believe in marriage and don't intend to do that institution.
But if push comes to shove, then I'd take that plunge---but I think I'd give it at least two years before proposing---of course after living with her first.

Though "total trust in that person" is kinda... lol... you know, making excuses?
Is there such a thing as total trust?
They earn your trust. The degree of this trust is your inner job, IMO.

Well, on one hand cohabitation (for a year or so) prior to marriage allows people to "sneak preview" what to expect, but on the other hand serves to undermine...

So for you to take this plunge, you'll have to act all doubtful and hesitantand
basically risking losing 'her' if her beliefs are similar to this? \/

Well Laura, hesitant is the operative word here.
If my heart can truly dance with hers, and everything seems to be in place without a shred of doubt, and say she really wanted to get married if it meant that much to her---then no problemos. I'm open minded and giving
It's not a fixed principle of mine---marriage.
So if I were to get married, I wouldn't be hesitant about anything.

StressFree: Agreed.
What kind of man likes housework?

I'm almost afraid to say, because I might sound discriminatory or something, brother.
But I think we both know housecleaning should only be done when a figurative gun is being placed to one's temple and the trigger cocked (in other words, when a gf or S.0. comes a callin').
Still, seriously, I believe I've decided to change my ways an attempt more weekly or bi-weekly maintenance...

I can't help but wonder if that's a Freudian slip, T.

Yeah man, I did some major housecleaning when I was expecting special company the other week. Man, literally hours it took
That's a great approach brother---changing our ways and clean a little here and there to maintain the new base we have to work with. Just the thought of that major cleaning job frightens me. So we'll see how long my home can stay clean now---going on two weeks almost
It didn't work out btw...I'll mail you eventually. Is it wrong that I'm too lazy to even send an email?

You just made my day, Stress.
I think it is wrong, but happy to know that I am not the only one...
