Age. He is getting older. Or, woman 2 needed it more than woman 1. It’s for who think a piece of paper makes relationships more real.

I agree with @Librapurr 1. He loves her and naturally feels like getting married to her. She might be the first one to make him feel like this. 2.The other woman was asking/pushing or maybe got pregnant. 3. The idea of being introduced as that woman's husband and she as his wife turns him on. I'm serious. 4. He didn't want to marry the first one for whatever reason. 5. He feels he's getting older and/or doesn't have a lot of options. 6. He is finally ready for marriage so he asks the one he is in a relationship with.

I once had a male psychology professor say that men don't marry a woman simply because he loves her. At some point in a man's life, he will have an urge to marry. The age at which this occurs varies from man to man, but most first feel this urge around 28-34. Whichever woman who happens to date this man right when he has this urge is the woman he will marry barring anything that is alarming (i.e. she kicks puppies). In short, timing, rather than the woman specifically, is what triggers a man to marry. I have no idea whether any of this is true, but it's an interesting thought. IP: Logged |

The real question is, why would a girl date a guy for 10 years if what she really wants is marriage? It's one thing if she doesn't want marriage. She can date him forever. But if marriage is important to her, I really don't understand waiting on a man 10 years... I just don't. IP: Logged |

Kate Middleton was waiting for the proposal 7 years and got nicknamed because of it.

I heard of this before. I think timing is key but it also has to be with the right gal. My friend dated a guy for several years but he didn’t wanna marry. They eventually broke off and he went on to date a gal whom he married within a year. In this case I don’t think it was the timing. He simply didn’t wanna marry my friend.

I would say the Moons would be more compatible in the person he married OR it could be wild,super sexual relationship that Nessus gives. This ends really badly!------------------ Want to Read Simple, Fun,Sexy Articles on Astrology? Check Me Out, DUDE. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

After four years? That's nothing. There are some guys who date a girl for 10 years without proposing, then they marry the next woman after knowing her for only 6 months! Some even leave the first woman for the second one because he's realised she's "the one".When you know you know. Never take a guy for his word when he says he doesn't believe in marriage. He will believe it once he meets "her". IP: Logged |

Another theory, It could be a window of opportunities from progress synastry. From my experience, when your progressed or natal with progressed planets flying by, it’s a big deal. He meets somebody around that time. And his first relationship progressed synastry and composite didn’t have much good going on for years. So it feels much more special.IP: Logged |

I had a friend who was adamant that whoever she was with, she was preparing them for marriage as the next person after her always got a proposal! IP: Logged |

Yup! I was with a “I don’t believe in labels” guy for 2 yrs. when it was done I realized how much I didn’t like it, and never again. I had my days before it ended where I was kind of mentally preparing the idea of I think this might not work out, and I just thought never again to a guy w/ that line if I put my self out there again. A month after it was over he made it FB official w/ someone else. That really helped me move on too. Like I’m not going to spend time being sad about someone so shi++y. And start to get excited for my future adventuresI think for some the need to see the person moving on to propose. My cousin for example. 13 years of boyfriend and girlfriend.She was ****** my sister got married before her. She even did the whole, “why wait for a man to put a ring on my finger, I got one myself.” But they were long distance at some point. He acted like it wasn’t worth it for him. I swear once she started dating ,he toy box syndromed and they got married very quickly. Plus he was married and divorced before her. I notice some men are very reluctant after having kids and then divorcing. Plus getting their heart broken. IP: Logged |
