Guys know right away if they want to be serious with you or not. As long as he's saying "I want to marry you some day when the time is right" and not "I want to marry you tomorrow" I think it's fine. But if it's overwhelming for you, tell him to hold off on this talk for a while and that you want to spend more time together before you start talking about marriage and moving in together. His reaction to that statement will tell you a lot about his true feelings/intentions.
It's up to you. Probably too much, too soon for many people. Might not be too much, too soon for you and your circumstances.
I'm glad to see you moving on from that earlier nonsense. You’re clearly a catch and easy to love. I think it's fair to tell your new beaux how much you appreciate his displays of affection (if that’s true), but you’ll need to go at your own pace with marriage discussions and sweeping life changes. You’re carving out a new life, and he’s a part of it. But it’s fair if he’s not the foundation you’re building on — he can be a great support, though!
If enjoying the moment is what you’re focused on, simply ask him to join you there. He might be a really future-focused person who finds comfort living in what might happen days, weeks, months, or years from now. So, he might need to recalibrate his mindset to align with where you are. You've gone through a lot, and that last relationship was long. Don't feel rushed. 💛 It doesn't have to be a bad conversation either; it can be a positive boundary setting. It also sets up a baseline of the kind of serious but helpful and healthy conversations you could have with this partner in the future (if you want that future).
Too soon. Be careful that he’s not love bombing you.
Also, if that’s his definition of marriage then he seems immature because marriage is nothing like that on most days!
That’s really cringe. How old is he? 😬
Lol … 35
I think he sounds sweet, if it’s not coupled with other troubling behavior.
I’m not really seeing red flags other than him coming off strong for how early it is. He’s not possessive (I have quite a few male friends I hang out with and he doesn’t care), he doesn’t guilt me into hanging out with him, or otherwise try to control anything I do. Our chemistry is great. I’m just still reeling a bit from my last relationship and I feel like I’m questioning everything.
Can we please stop testing and comparing people? Just tell them you are not ready and you’ll let him know. Then ask them to go to therapy to get impatience out of the way… because nothing built to last should be done in a rush.
