Q: my boyfriend and i are high school sweethearts. we’ve been dating for over three years and he still hasn’t proposed to me we talk about it all the time but why cant he just propose to me already ?
Answer: If it’s bothering you that much, you need to sit down and seriously talk with him about when does he think you two should get married. But keep in mind, it’s not unusual for young couples to stay together for years, sometimes living together, and then decide to get married later.
An excellent example is Prince William and Kate Middleton. They were together for eight years before they got engaged. So being young has its advantages. You still have time to sit back and enjoy your relationship without feeling the rush a lot of people in their late 20s and older feel. After all, patience is a virtue!

I agree that taking it slow is best when you’re young. I definitely wouldn’t offer the same advice to an older couples. If this person was in her 30s and the guy still hadn’t propose, I would of suggested for her to leave him.
I totally understand what you are saying, but believe me don’t rush it. My boyfriend and I started dating my last year of high school and we’ve been together seven years. We are not married or engaged, and that’s probably a good thing. Believe me, you do A LOT of growing up and maturing in your early 20’s. If you can change and grow together through those years, especially with college, then it is likely you’ll be able to handle whatever life throws at you later in life.
