Today, I'm planning my big sister's wedding. My long-term, live-in boyfriend walked by and saw me looking at the wedding tab on Pinterest, smirked, and said, "Don't get your hopes up." I had. FML

Today, I was at a family gathering when my aunt asked me if I was seeing anyone special. In a tired and sarcastic tone, I jokingly said, “I’m actually getting married next month!” The room went silent, then some of them cheered. I had to explain I was kidding, but now they’re looking forward to a wedding I didn’t agree to. FML

He probably doesn't even deserve you OP. I bet that wedding, will be beautiful, too!!

Weddings stir up emotions, and it's likely your boyfriend will witness the special moment and want it for himself too. Keep positive, it'll come eventually. Unless there's a dramatic plot twist, and your sister/her fiancé dramatically leaves like in a soap opera.

Maybe is time to have a conversation about the future with him and see where he sees you guys. If he doesn't see marriage in the future it may be time to move on and find your future husband.

Wow, your boyfriend is rude, no offense. You don't even deserve him, if he is going to be like that then leave him

You thought that was rude? Geez! There are a lot of overly sensitive people on this thread.

Why stAy with someone long term if there's no future?

Aww, how cute/naive, someone thinks love has term limits.

I know how you feel. My boyfriend and I have a baby together and when I brought up the topic of marriage a couple of months ago, he didn't want to talk about it and said not to bring it up again. I now hate seeing anything wedding related as it depresses me. But in your case, talk to him about it. Let him know you're in it for the long haul and need to know if he is too. If he is, he just might not be ready. If he isn't, then you should move on.

#46 > That's pretty unfair and selfish of your boyfriend to say he doesn't want to discuss an issue that is clearly important to you. He should at least bring valid arguments as to why he doesn't want to get married, ie costs, and even then, you can have a cheap wedding. Unless your baby was a birth control accident, I guess he was planning to spend his life with you if he wanted a child. Either way, he shouldn't shut out such an important issue.

Cheer up OP. before I proposed to my wife I would make jokes like that to try and throw her off the scent. Then BAM! Never expected it!

Rude comment. However, wanting to grow old with someone and wanting to marry someone are not the same thing. He could just not see the point in marriage but still want to grow old with you. Also, perhaps he was only commenting on expensive/lavish decorations?

Dump his ungrateful ass!! Nobody deserves to be strung along and babe that's exactly what he's doing if he doesn't want to marry you. There are certain things in this world, romantic relationships being one of many, that remain constant to the phrase "shit or get off the pot"

Wow, seriously people, if you think marriage is the recipe for staying together all life, you should check out statistics on divorces. As it ws mentioned before, the fact that he doesn't want to get married doesn't mean he doesn't want to stay with OP for the rest of his life.
