These Are 10 Reasons Why Your Man Hasn’t Proposed Yet (Even Though You Are Dying For It)

You have been in a relationship with this fantastic guy whom you think the world of. He gives you the butterfly effect, when you are with him you feel on top of the world and you see yourself making some mini-mes with him in the nearest future, but he hasn’t gotten round to popping the question yet.
The aim of a relationship to most women is to eventually get married and have their happily ever after and if this doesn’t happen within a stipulated time, there is usually cause for Alarm.
Women are natural nurturers and want to create a home, have a family and take care of them, but for men this is not so. It is even more disturbing if there are other underlying reasons why your man may not want to propose marriage despite the fact that the relationship may be going very well.
The fault may not be entirely yours but here are 10 significant reasons your man may be holding back from putting a ring on it

1. He doesn’t believe in marriage

So you started out the relationship without discussing expectations. You automatically believed he wants the same thing you do at the end of the day; marriage. You may be wrong. Believe it or not, not everyone wants to get married and become domesticated and you need to find out if your man belongs to this category asap.

2. He wants to test the waters first

We all know that most men want to play the field first before settling down. Asking you to marry him now might be considered on as a suicide to the adventurous life he wants to have. At the end of the day if he falls into this category, your relationship is just happening at the wrong time, nothing personal.

3. Your relationship is sick but you don’t know it

It is also possible he finds faults with the relationship that you are blind to. When communication between the both of you is not effective and your man feels the conditions are not conducive to proposing to you, then its never going to happen.

4.You are obsessing over marriage

Men are biologically built to love being in control and that includes the circumstance of their relationships. If your man feels you are obsessed with him proposing to you then that sense of being in control is threatened. You won’t get the ring out of him no matter the number of bridal catalogs you display in his presence.

5. He has gotten too comfortable

Perhaps you are living with him already. You cook, wash and clean up after him performing all the wifely duties without the title, then you are enabling him. He is most likely enjoying all the benefits of marriage without going through the process itself. Think of it in terms of not buying a cow because you already have free milk.

6. He is climbing the corporate ladder

We know it tough getting ahead in life that why our parents tell us to put in the work while we are still single. This is because once you get married and intend to stay married, the obligations are multiplied and finances get tighter. Your man may just be too busy making a career to think of making a family.

7. Family Influences

Do you get along with his family? Do they like you as a person and want you as a wife for their son? These are some of the questions you need to answer especially if your man holds his family’s opinion in high regards,

8. He is mentally not ready

Well, there isn’t much you can do in this case. If he is not ready to man up and ask you to marry him, then he is not. simple.

9. He feels it is too soon

Fact is women start dreaming of their big day from a very young age and they usually faster to feel ready to take their relationships to the next level. So it might be that he thinks it is just too soon into your relationship to start talking proposals.

10. He is financially unstable

When it comes to marriage, stability especially financially is very important. When the man in the relationship does not have the financial capability to take of the home yet, proposing is the very last thing on his mind.
