I have been dating my girlfriend for 3 years. I want to surprise her by proposing to her and being all fancy for our hangout soon, but I don’t want to move too fast. 3 years should be fine, right??
Anyway, I’ll tell you how it goes!!
To me, I’d never think about proposing without discussing marriage with them first. If you have and they want to, I don’t see any problems with it
I proposed to her today!!
How’d it go?
I’ll respond as the woman who married her best friend of 6 years after 2 months of being her girlfriend: go for it.
I’m sure she’ll love you, say yes, and be a lovely wife.
Okayyy, thanks!
Well, I heard a typical lesbianism first date involves a Uhaul. I don’t think 3 yrs is too soon, if you’re sure that’s the person for you and you want to spend a life with. I’d say just be sure your partner feels the same way and you both have the same expectations before hurting yourself or another.
I proposed earlier! She was sooo happy
The only REAL criteria for getting married, thst isn’t just personal social preference, are as follows:
-
Is there any kind of social imbalance of power? Like a boss/employee relationship, a really big age gap, an extended prior relationship where one party was a an adult, and the other wasn’t, that kinda thing. Any of those is a big red flag. Definitely doesn’t sound like the case here.
-
Have you talked about marriage, casually? Like, has the relationship evolved enough that the topic has just come up, and neither of you has been clear that you’re not ready? Sounds like that’s indeed the case here.
Like, the only “time threshold” that really matters is that #2 part, whether the relationship has matured to that point. Every relationsholip evolves at a different pace, in this regard.

Thank you!!! ❤️ I proposed earlier

Is this the kind of surprise she would be okay with? Have you talked to her about it before?
Yep!
Alright then, hope it goes well 🙂
It did! She said yes!!
:D
Awesome! Thank you for telling us!
Of course! Hey, we noticed you’re plural. We are too!!
(we’re going to sleep for real so we will respond later)
Excellent! We might be starting a plural community on this instance (blahaj) too since lemmee is closing. Hope y’all sleep well!
I’m interested in this comm, I would love to know more
Please do! And thanks!
I wanted to propose to my wife for maybe 3 years before I did, but finances were a big problem for us. Eventually, I just said fuck it and got the nicest ring I could afford and proposed the same day it arrived. If you both want to get married, the time is right. You probably won’t get a mystical sign from the universe that the time is come. Good luck! ❤️
Thank you ❤️ I did it earlier!!
I married my wife when we were 22 after being together for two years (moved in together after a month of dating). When you know, you know. Just don’t do it if your only reason is because you’ve been together for a while. Do it because you don’t want to live a life without her in it.
PS: We’ve been together 31 years this August.
I don’t want to live a life without her. Thank you ❤️ She has made my life nothing but beautiful.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! If you are girls are planning on moving to Japan determine if there is any benefit to being married over there maybe get married ahead of time. Or wait until you get back. Best of luck!!!
