How romantic
A piece of paper controls everyone's life.
Most people would probably never have been married if there wasn't something to do with cash/ Debt
hahaha little does he know, very very few people get any tax benefit for being married!! Most of the time it costs more!
If heard this so many times on fml
I mean, that can't be his only reason. It's possible that he simply became nervous and began spouting possible advantages to marriage. Seeing as OP stuck with him for five years, and seemed to want him to propose (with her usage of "finally"), I personally do not think rejecting him just for that is a good choice. Assuming OP loves him, saying no would be a mistake. I opine, we do not have enough details to judge this, and you could very well be right.
#32 beat me to it.
You said no, right?
You are not serious, right?
5 years of a relationship destroyed by those words? uhhh
I think OP's boyfriend was trying to be funny at that moment. Marriage proposal can be a difficult time for some people and some people use humor to lessen that stress.

Show it anywayWoah, breaking up for that? That guy must have been really determined to spend 5 years of his life with someone and then marry them *just* for tax breaks.
That's quite a jump, dude. I don't think he deserves to be DUMPED for that; he was probably just extremely nervous. They've been together for 5 years, if OP thought he was a bad boyfriend, she would have dumped him long before this.
You had to have said no.
Saying no to a marriage proposal doesn't automatically mean break up you know
you gotta keeper; } I love tax breaks.
Oooo romantic
he's a keeper!
Well in this economy tax breaks can be very beneficial. Not a good enough reason for marriage though.
