You may have found the guy you want to marry but now you must do what is needed to keep him around. Many women do not know what they can do to better their chances of their boyfriend making a commitment to them. Below are some tips to help out, this is just a hint of the things you should consider.
A really important thing in any kind of relationship is communication. If the two of you are able to openly convey your feelings and have great talks together you will have a stronger relationship.
Go on dates and have fun. If your times together are positive he will want to keep you around. As he gets to know you more and feels he wants to be with you he will get serious in his life. His job may take on more importance to him because he is thinking about you in the long term. He may start discussing the future with you on a more frequent basis.
Unfortunately some men only want to date women they like but they have no intention of marrying them. If you have been with your man from six months to a year and he has not brought up his feelings on marriage you may have to confront him. Ask him what he is looking for in a woman he is willing to commit to. If he tells you qualities that are compliments to you, that would be good for you.
Keep in mind men will make commitments slower than women. Men can tend to be careful about getting to know a woman before they will commit to them. Men will go through stages with you, first is dating then boyfriend and finely engagement. One reason behind this is they are making sure they are compatible with the woman they are with.
You have to let this happen at its own pace, there is no rushing it. If you try to push your man into making a commitment before he is ready he will become more uncertain about you. If he brings up the subject of marriage, only then is it ok for you to discuss it with him. The only other time is after six months as stated above.
Make sure the two of you have similar views on relationships. If you have distinctly different views then it may not work out. Example is you want to have kids and he does not. If your views are too far apart it would be time to move on if you are looking for marriage.
