He falls short
Kelly, 25, from Cincinnati asks:
My boyfriend says he loves and wants to one day get married but when it actually comes to doing things that people in a serious relationship should do, he falls short. Is he afraid of commitment and is there anything I can do?
VictorM's advice:
I assume you accidentally left the word "me" out of the first sentence, otherwise we could have a clue.
You don't specify what kinds of things "people should do", so it's hard for me to say. But I think the operative words are that he wants to get married "one day". Clearly that means not now and not very soon.
Maybe, just maybe, you're a bit impatient and he's not falling short, he's just walking slowly?

Don't think about "things people in a serious relationship do" think about what you want/need out of a LIFELONG PARTNER. They way he acts and treats you now, is probably the way he will act/treat you for the rest of your lives if you were to marry. Can you handle that?
Is this really the man for you? What if he proposed today? Would you be wishing he would change one,two,howevermany things about himself? That is NOT what you want to feel about a fiance.
