Hello Guys,so been dating a wonderful lady for three years now.We met while i was in my final year in College and she was in 200 Level. Now she has graduated.But i have not really been able to start a discussion telling her that i will love to get married next year .I am 28 years old and my family members are already asking whats my next plan.Asides family asking,i also believe i am emotionally and financially ready to settle down.But my girlfriend seems not so ready probably due to her age.But i will really like to sit her down and discuss this issues with her and at the same time,i don't want her feel i might be walking out of the relationship if she says she isn't ready next year for marriage.I really Love her,but not sure i can wait too long to settle down..Your advice will be appreciated.

U do deserve something permanent if that's what u are now looking for

what do u mean something permanent? we have been dating for three years and our families are aware.my only concern is if she is emotionally ready for such level .

I mean marriage

You're 28 n she's 22, not all girls want to get married that early. If she says next year and you're sure she won't change her mind then, i don't see why she isn't worth the wait. On the other hand if you can't wait an extra year for her to be ready go get yourself a different girl you don't really know.

by next year she would be 23 so discuss with her about your plans so she'll be getting ready
