Life tip: if you don't already KNOW the answer is yes, don't ask. It's too early.
I had a girlfriend asking me like twice a week for a year- when I was going to propose and then I did and she said no.
We did all of that but then she decided she wanted someone who went to the same church, she told me maybe if I joined her church. Her church beat two children to death trying to expel demons. We actually separated after we couldn't work it out
Sounds like you dodged a large bullet there
Yeah, life sucks and that experience sucked, but it would be much worse
Wtf dude?
Can you delete this?
Everyone can enjoy my fucked up story but I don't see why you decided to repost it
... why?
Come now, do better.
I once had a girl randomly tell me she wasn't ready to get married. I was just like "uh, okay, I wasn't planning to ask you". What she really meant was she was cheating on me and wanted to break up.
We are not. That took place a decade ago and I haven't spoken to her since.
Also just like don’t joke about such things if you aren’t prepared for people to take it as a hint
To me. They are asking you to propose. If they want to have a conversation there have the fucking conversation. Don’t play games. No one can read minds.
But it doesn’t matter to me either way. I don’t date. I won’t date. I’m done with dating. And I will never get married.
Regardless of what they are asking, you should have that conversation for your own sake, not just theirs. Though I'd also argue that if you are going to get married, you should want to do it for their sake, too. And if you resent them for not speaking their mind, don't marry them.
cue, not queue ...
LPT: Don't give queues that can be severely misunderstood, just fucking ask what you want to know.
