Ladies, I join your board because, even though I''ve been married for almost 23 years (5 kids), I am also waiting for a diamond ring. Dh and I had no $$ when we married. We lived with his folks for 3 yrs while he got his degree, having our first two kids (surprise!) before he got that degree. Fortunately, his folks were smitten with our babies, so it was fine. Well, life got busy, time flew, more kids, cats, dogs, houses... Now I''d like a sparkly ring, please! And he wants me to have one too. But he''s going to surprise me in some way, and I have no clue when. Thought it was gonna be this Valentine''s Day, but it wasn''t. Candy and a White Barn candle. (I was touched - it''s usually just candy - which is all I give him.) Well, our 23rd anniversary is coming up in March - perhaps...
But this post is not about me - it''s about all of you out there waiting and waiting and waiting! And some of you are living with the guy you are waiting on to propose to you.
Ladies, your Grandma is right. Why buy the milk when you can get the cow for free? None of these guys put off a proposal for more than one year if they were waiting for that wedding night with their beloved. That''s how it used to be.
You gals are worth more that this! Don''t give your body to a man who won''t honor you by committing his life to you for good. You deserve to be treated with honor. And any guy who sleeps with a gal without being married to her is dishonoring her. He''s cheapening her and letting her family and friends down.
Guys want sex. Gals want security. So they''re getting what they want, but you''re not. It''s time to break up, move out, and find a decent man. And knowing that you have high standards will make you all the more attractive to a nice guy. They are out there - nice guys who want a nice wife who''ll be a great life partner and mother to their kids. When their moms find out that this gal won''t put out, she''ll be pushing sonny boy to pick that one! And she''s got his ear more that you know.
Do an experiment - tell your man that you have decided that until you are married, you''re not sleeping with anybody. See what he''s made of. Either he''ll deliver on that ring and set a date, or he''s gonna leave. If he leaves, you know you had a dud. This is the guy you''ll be building your life with, having children with. Find out what he''s made of now.
My heart really goes out to all of you. You are precious and capable and beautiful. Demand the best for yourselves and live by high standards.
