my boyfriend and i have been together for about three years and 4 months. we've been living together for over a year. i want to marry him, but i don't know why he hasn't proposed! i feel really down on myself.... i feel it is because i am too unstable and needy and he is scared of me (i have a phobia and anxiety problems). we've said we want to be together forever, but why won't he give me a ring. he once said we didn't have enough money for a wedding, which is true, but i just want to get engaged! and he spends tons of money on books, comic books and stuff like that (we're both big geeky kids at heart)....why can't he spare some of the money for me?? i feel guilty saying that. and his dad is a jeweler! he could get a stone from him for cheap!!!! ugh. i don't know. any advice? what should i do??
i just feel like i'm a freak and he doesn't want me even though he says he does.
