The previous ultimatums have lent concern on my part that she would be giving other ultimatums after we got married.

I think you did the right thing. a lot of women want to get married and are looking for someone to marry, not for someone to love and be in a relationship with.
Maybe if she didn't pull the 5 month ultimatum, in 7 months you would have been ready to marry her...but she'll never know that now will she?
Find someone who's happy just to be with you, not looking for a ring.
