Shouldn't you have been asking yourself this question about two kids ago? |

My mother always told my sister and I, "Never give a man a baby who hasn't given you his name"....he is actually disrespecting you by called you his wife, because it makes a mockery of the fact that you aren't. |

Why should he pop the question if he gets it all for free? |

the next time he calls you his wife tell him, "I'm not your wife. now you can either remedy that situation by making me your wife, or you can get out." That should make it clear. |

Valerie X---thats great advice....which ultimatly means dont get knocked up by someone ur not married to.
Stop having kids with this guy. He will either marry you or he won't. Talk to him and tell him u want to get married, if he says no...move on girl. |

Why did you get pregnant TWICE with a man you weren't married to? You put the cart before the horse. Bad choice.
Haven't you ever heard the old saying, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?"
You're free. |

have you ever asked him? |

... why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?
There's no point in him committing when you are there just as you would be if you were married. You're enabling him to continue as an accepted lifestyle. Turn his world around. Ask him. You two haven't done anything else traditionally so why should that be the only thing?
Good luck! |

He does not have to marry you. You are living with him and having his kids. |

He won't ask you to marry him because he's already living with you like you're married. He's got everything he wants/needs out of the relationship. |

There is an old saying, "Why buy the bakery if you get all the bread for free?"
Why should he marry you. Such a wonderful man, BS, why won't he accept his responsibility? Right now he is free to walk away from you and his kids and not look back. Oh, but wait, he loves you right? They why won't he marry you? He wants to keep that door open so he just turn and walk away from you and his kids. he is NOT the wonderful guy you think he is. My daughter was with a guy for 18 years, she had a ring and a lot of promises. He walked away from her and his son and he didn't look back. Think about that 18 years and now she has nothing but his kid. |

I gotta agree with Valerie on this one.
The old adage definitely applies here: why buy the cow when the milk is free? |

you say he is a amazing boy friend and a good father to his children why don't he really show how amazing he really is by marrying you and showing the respect that seem do you, to call you his wife is one thing but nothing is certain in a relationship unless it is in black/white stop being his baby manufactor until he make everything legal |

some men think that if they can get a woman to do all the wifely duties without getting married to them and the woman remains silent then they don't have to pop the question.but you have to speak up to get what you want.also some think that if anything goes wrong they can just leave without having to go through a divorce and the girlfriend will not be entitled to anything. |

7 years is a long time to be with someone. I would ask him if he plans on marry me. Not another 7 years from now. You don't want to force a guy in to marry you because, that type of marriage never last. There is a very old saying that still holds true today. Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free. You do everything a wife does, you live with him and gave him children. Why would he marry you. He gets to have his cake and eat it to. However, do let him know if he says he is scared of marriage that, in most states if you live together, for 7 years or more you are already concerted a common law husband and wife. Marriage by habit and repute, is a form of interpersonal status which is legally recognized in some jurisdictions as a marriage even though no legally recognized marriage ceremony is performed or civil marriage contract is entered into. Therefore, he can go ahead and marry you. |

why should he marry you, you already gave him 2 kids and he calls you his wife without the ring and without a marriage. |

You propose to him. Why are you waiting around for him to do it when you can? |
|

Now What?!!
|
Don't have anymore kids until you two get married.. Having children doesn't make some men get married it is obvious with your man. He isn't ready to marry you. Why should he when what you two have is working? When he is ready you will know because you will have a proposal and ring. |

ask him, mabey he cant afford it yet but is giving u hints by callin u his wife that its gonna happen as soon as he can do it |

Maybe you could have gotten a ring before you had babies with him. He probably feels like why make it legal when we "live" like we married anyway. He calls you his wife, so what is he afraid of? Nothing! Sorry but you should have thought of that years ago |

Oddly enough, some men don't feel that marriage is needed to signify a relationship. If you want to get married and it means a lot to you, tell him that. You don't need a ring to become engaged or get married. And it would be best for you and your children to get married in case something ever happens to one of you. |

propose to him...
if he cant do it...you can! |

I believe it's because he's never going to. It's to easy for him to be able to say "I'm not married"
You should ask him and if he says no- or hesitates- LOOSE THE LOSER before you have 10 kids and raising them on your own. |

Just ask him why he won't. There's nothing wrong with asking. |
