I want him to ask me to marry him

I have never been so obsessed with something in my life. Our history is a lot the same we both are divorced, no kids. We both got hurt very bad by our x's and what not. I never thougth I woulde ver care to get married again, but its different now. I have discovered love it feels like for the first time. We live together and have since back in november. We have only been dating for almost 8 months now. I know this is soon but I am so stuck on the idea. We have spoken about it a bit and I know he wants to ask me, but he is stuck on this time frame thing. He comes froma famiyl where they wait about a year and a half before asking. My famiyl is the opposite we are used to getting engaged with in the first year if we love that person. My family is putting the push on things kinda and I really want him to but I dotn want to push him, or push him away for that matter.. I have a few weddings with friends of mine this month and next so I am not sure if that is making me want it even more. Any advice out there?? I really am tired of trying to figgure things out. We are great for eah other, we are both deffinately over the age of 21, but under the age of 30 so it is not like we are to young or anything. ugh help?

Marriage isn't going to disappear next year, so I'd just wait it out and give him his time.

Whats your hurry? True love waits!
If you got married within the first year with your first marriage, why go down that same path? Take your time, I'm sure hes not going anywhere.

No it was not like that with my first marriege, I married my x husband after dating from 15-18 he was 21 when we started dating I got married after highschool when I was 18/ I waited a while to get married that time. I am nto in a hurry just having trouble with the wiating part, its bothering me an dI cant seem to get it out of my head. I think it is becuase I have never watned anythign as bad as I want this

Even though you dated for 3 years, you still seemed to be in a hurry then. You were only a teenager. Just because you date someone throughout high school, doesnt mean you have to marry right out of school.
I guess I'm having a hard time understanding why you cant wait. I mean you are living together, so its not like you never see him. It must feel like your married already.

I am just frusterated because I guess its all around me right now. I cant understand why I cant wait either. that is what is bothering me. with my x it was not a big deal I didnt care to get married and I was just going with the show.
