Dear Diary,
I am a woman of 37 and I have been living with a man for 10 years and I have had three children for him. But he has not asked me to marry him. What baffles me is that he says he loves me, and each time I broach the question of marriage, he somehow changes the subject. What should I do?

Dear Live-in-lover,
I think you are expecting too much from this man.You expect him to propose after only 10 years with you? Nah, you should actually wait until you have spent at least 25 years and have three more babies for him.
