I have this friend who has been dating this guy on and off for a while now. They decided to take things seriously this time as they are not getting any younger. The guy initially gave her assurance of settling down last year ending or early this year.
Both families know each other. It took the Man a lots of talking to and push to go and meet her parents to state his intentions. But till now he has not officially introduced her to his Parents who only see them as friends.
Is she on the right track or is he wasting her time

1. I think you should leave the couple to sort themselves out. She knows why she is attracted to such an individual and she alone knows of any real red flags there against their being together. Tell her to open a thread of her own explaining why she is not sure.

have they been intimate, if yes, she might be wasting her time..

and is the man financially ready and willing to settle down? if he's not ready mentally and physically, there's nothing she can do. She has to move on.

It's common for men to propose a time for marriage and not meet that time due to a lot of reasons ranging from finances, family responsibilities, choosing between character and beauty, the fear of I hope I'm making the right choice of woman, will she change? Etc. Those are the phobia of men. It is the woman who has work to do by showing in her deeds, encouraging support that will make that man reason more towards marrying her.

While the man is thinking for instance how to get 1million for wedding, the wife is saying 500k is enough while we use the other 500 to start building on the land you bought. While the man is depressed on how his boss is threatening to sac him over a mistake he made at work, the woman is thinking on how to get to meet the boss and beg on behalf of her man.

The question is Have you ever seen where two women are gathered, even in God's name to tell each other these kind of truth before?

Those kind of facts that relate to men and even deeper ones are what men tell each other even while drinking bear. The difference is just too much

The kind of trust Achraf Hakim's mother earned from him is what the wife is supposed to earn. But if I say most women don't know what womanhood (thier roles in thier man's life) is about, many will object. All they think womanhood is about is Brazilian hair, fashion, make ups, gossips and baby mama. Very bad!

So tell your friend to mature up and she'll record a difference in her man's response. The truth sounds harsh most times but if you embrace it, the reward is a long term one

WORD OF WISDOM: you wouldnt need to push/force a man to marry you, if he "really" wanted to marry you now.

you guys aint ready...

Seems like you are dumb. How do you expect strangers on the internet to know if someone is right or not?
