I know this is a Marriage Advice bowl; however, Im looking for marriage & am in need of urgent advice. My bf said to me "you tried to use that reverse psychology stuff on me & say that you won't introduce your mom to me until I tell you about the future in our relationship. That's crazy. I never heard of that before." I told him "you don't talk 2 me about where you see the relationship going in the future." &he always say "i havent even met anyone in your family yet." (Contd)

Why are you still with someone after 7 years, and you can't have a standard conversation about your plans?

The 7 years with no mention tells you where he sees it going. I think you've known the answer for quite some time, even if you were young when you met. It's obvious to everyone that serious relatives aren't introduced if people aren't serious.

Huh? I dont understand your comment.

Tell him you'll date someone else if there is no marriage insight

@OP just reading your tone in your last reply .. you’re clearly resentful. Both of you are wrong to have been in this relationship for 7 years and still feel this way. At this point you both either need to sit down and have a clear open convo about your intentions and desires or cut your losses and go your separate ways. Plain and simple.

CM: have you met his family? Is there a reason why you chose to not introduce your family to someone you play house with for so many years?

Yes I met his mom, stepdad, grandmother, & cousin. There are other people who I have not met yet like his brothers and their wife (his mom favors her alot for some reason & its bothersome, & never reaches out to me--so I keep my distance).

I have asked him on several occasions if he wanted to stop by my parents' house during Thanksgiving or other times & he always said "no im good or this is the worst time to meet someone because its a super busy holiday." Its not all my fault, but I am at the point now where I am just like--why am I introducing him to my family if he never discusses marriage or where he would like to see the relationship go with me.

When I brought it up to him in the past and asked "where do you see this relationship in 5 years?"--he just said "i can't look that far ahead." 😒🙄
