13 modi per sapere quando smettere di aspettare la sua proposta di matrimonio

You’ve been dating the same guy for a long time, but it seems like he’ll never be ready to take your relationship to a more serious level. You want to know when to stop waiting for him to propose because you’re afraid you may be wasting your time on the wrong man.

Il vostro uomo potrebbe anche pianificare un fidanzamento a sorpresa in questo momento, ma potrebbe anche essere un idiota che odia l'idea del matrimonio e che vi sta solo prendendo in giro.

Il punto è che dovreste capire che tipo di uomo è davvero e farlo il prima possibile. Più continuerete ad aspettarlo, più sarà difficile lasciarlo una volta che la realtà vi colpirà.

When To Stop Waiting For Him To Propose: 13 Signs That Show It’s Time To Give Up

Nel momento in cui iniziate a notare questi sottili indizi, dovreste cominciare a pensare a porre fine alla propria relazione. Unfortunately, all of these are red flags that your man won’t propose to you or, at least, that it won’t happen any time soon.

1. Evita completamente le proposte di matrimonio

When a man always tries to avoid discussing a marriage proposal, it’s clear that he’s avoiding that topic because marriage is something he still hasn’t thought about.

Sometimes, it’s because of practicality (money issues or work ambitions), but in most cases, it’s because men are afraid of that kind of commitment.

2. Oppure, ti dà delle ragioni stupide che cambiano ogni volta.

Ci sono anche altri tipi di uomini. Ones who don’t avoid talking about a marriage proposal but who also offer you a stupid excuse every time about why they can’t do it right now.

Either they’ll say that they don’t have time for wedding planning right now, that they need to get their personal life together first, or that it’s too soon to take such a serious step even though you’ve been dating for years.

It’s okay if a man postpones marriage talk once or twice while giving you a good reason for it, but if he keeps offering lame excuses why you can’t get married, you should consider it a huge red flag.

It’s obvious that he’s stringing you along and making you believe that he’ll marry you one day, even though he knows very well it’s not his end goal.

3. He doesn’t care about your feelings at all

Anche se a volte gli uomini tendono a fare i finti tonti con noi, ci capiscono perfettamente e capiscono come ci fanno sentire certe cose. If you’ve been dating for a while, I’m sure your man knows how much you care about taking the next step in your relationship.

Ignoring you when you start to talk about it or trying to avoid those kinds of conversations hurts your feelings, and he’s well aware of it. Unfortunately, he just doesn’t care.

He doesn’t care about you and your feelings. If he did, he would already be thinking of romantic idee per le proposte e parlare con voi dell'organizzazione del matrimonio.

4. Odia ed evita i ricevimenti di matrimonio

Ogni volta che ricevete un invito a nozze da parte di amici comuni, familiari o colleghi, lui cerca di evitare di andare con voi a quel matrimonio.

It could be that he really hates wedding parties, but the truth is, when you love someone, sometimes you need to do things you don’t particularly like. Especially when you know your partner cares about those things deeply.

However, I’m pretty sure he avoids going to those kinds of gatherings because he doesn’t want you to get all excited and start pressuring him with talks about getting married.

5. You can’t say for sure that you’re in a committed relationship

It’s because you are not, and you’re aware of this even though you’re head over heels in love with your man. There is nothing you would want more than to be in una relazione impegnata con lui in questo momento, ma sapete che non è così.

If you crave solid commitment and true love, unfortunately, it’s time to look for it in a different place because it’s all too obvious that you won’t find it in your current relationship.

6. He doesn’t work on his fear of commitment

There are so many men who have a fear of commitment, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. However, it’s wrong when they’re aware of it and don’t do anything to change it.

Sapete perché? It’s because they don’t care about their partner, and they aren’t paura di perderli perché sanno che la loro paura di impegnarsi può allontanare la loro dolce metà.

If your man is one of those men, I’m sorry to have break it to you, but dovresti rompere con lui, and you should do it ASAP. Your man won’t change, and you’ll continue breaking your own heart with the false hope that he might pop the question one day.

7. You’ve heard rumors about him cheating on you

Io e il mio ex, quello che aspettavo da sempre per chiedergli di sposarmi, abbiamo avuto una relazione a lungo termine in cui abbiamo condiviso molti eventi importanti della vita ed ero sicura che lui fosse l'uomo con cui avrei trascorso il resto della mia vita.

Tante persone hanno detto che he wasn’t faithful to mee c'erano molte bandiere rosse che lo dimostravano, ma decisi di chiudere un occhio su tutto questo. It wasn’t until I saw all the loving Facebook comments he was leaving on other women’s photos and posts.

I still remember it like it was yesterday. We should’ve celebrated the New Year together, but he said that he had to go on a work trip the day before and packed his bags. That night I discovered all the proof of his infidelity and decisi di non volerlo più rivedere.

If you’ve seen signs of his infidelity or someone tried to warn you about it, please don’t ignore it. It’s probably true, and it’s why he still hasn’t proposed to you and probably never will.

8. His family doesn’t approve of it, and he’s too attached to them

Do you know that the highest breakup/divorce rate is with couples whose families don’t approve of their relationships/marriages? Unfortunately, no matter how strong the love and connection between the partners are, it’s simply too difficult to fight with such pressure.

Quindi, se sapete che your boyfriend’s family doesn’t have a good opinion of your relationship and is strongly against it, you should look no further because that’s why your man still hasn’t popped the question.

In this case, you should be understanding. As hard it is for you, it’s even harder for your man because he feels like he needs to choose between the woman he loves and his family, and that’s a situation no man should ever experience.

9. He’s immature and doesn’t think about the future at all

Avete mai fatto progetti per il futuro insieme? Ne avete mai parlato? Lui condivide con lei i suoi obiettivi futuri?

If he even avoids talking about his own future, it’s probably because he doesn’t have a clue how it’s going to look. When a man doesn’t have any dreams and goals for the future, it’s a clear sign of immaturity, and waiting for un ragazzo immaturo di proporvi è inutile.

10. Your relationship isn’t the way it used to be

You’ve noticed that he’s changed, and your relationship has changed with him. You don’t spend as much time together anymore, date nights are forgotten, and you’ve become more like two friends than romantic partners.

Perhaps your partner is aware of these changes, and even if he intended to propose to you one day, he’s having second thoughts about it now.

You can wait, but I think things are pretty clear here… You don’t love each other the way you used to, and it’s obvious now that you aren’t soulmates. In that case, getting married would be a huge mistake for both of you.

11. Gli avete già dato un ultimatum e lui l'ha ignorato.

Have you already given him an ultimatum regarding a marriage proposal, and he ignored it completely? Even if you made it clear that you’d break up with him if he doesn’t show any signs he’s going to marry you soon?

È davvero necessario dire qualcosa in questo momento? If this isn’t a good enough sign that he doesn’t care about you and has no intention of marrying you, I don’t know what is then.

12. It seems like he isn’t afraid of losing you

It doesn’t just seem like it, but it’s so obvious that your man is not afraid of losing you. He’s aware that it might happen if he doesn’t pop the question any time soon, but it doesn’t bother him at all.

Maybe he does love you, but he certainly doesn’t love you as much as you love him or as much as you deserve to be loved. The right man will love you the way you deserve to be loved, and his biggest fear in life would be losing you…

13. He’s made it clear that marriage isn’t one of his end goals

If your man has made it loud and clear that he never plans to get married or that it won’t happen any time soon, then what are you still doing with that kind of man?

Ha senso aspettare che sia lui a chiederci di sposarlo? I’m sorry to have to tell you this, but I don’t see him as the culprit, but you are. He’s sincere with his intentions, and you’re allowing false hope to keep you by his side and break your heart little by little every day.

Quanto tempo è troppo per aspettare che lui le faccia la proposta?

This is a very difficult question to answer because it really depends. One thing is for sure, though, you can’t wait for him forever because it’s definitely too long, and you’re being unfair to yourself and wasting your life on an indecisive man.

La maggior parte degli esperti di relazioni concorda sul fatto che da uno a tre anni è un periodo di tempo sufficiente per un uomo per decidere se fare o meno la proposta di matrimonio alla propria compagna.

Tuttavia, conosco tante coppie che si sono frequentate per sei anni o più e poi hanno deciso di sposarsi, e hanno matrimoni felici a distanza di anni. D'altra parte, conosco anche tanti uomini che hanno deciso di chiedere alle loro fidanzate di sposarle dopo solo un anno di frequentazione, e alla fine è stata la decisione peggiore che abbiano mai preso.

Il punto è che voi conoscete meglio di chiunque altro e solo voi potete sapere quando è abbastanza. Although, in my opinion, you don’t need that much time to know whether you love someone and if you want to be with that person for the rest of your life.

Perché gli uomini aspettano così tanto per fare una proposta di matrimonio?

There are many reasons why men play the waiting game when it comes to proposing to the girl they’re dating. Some of those reasons are justified, and some of them are beyond stupid and immature.

Some of the justifiable reasons include waiting for the perfect opportunity, waiting to become financially stable, wanting to be 100% sure that it’s the right decision, getting their life together, and similar.

On the other hand, some men take forever to propose to the girl they’re dating because of their paura di impegnarsiproblemi di autostima, interferenze di altre persone e incapacità di rinunciare alla vita da single.

La cosa peggiore è che alcuni di questi motivi sarebbero giustificati se solo questi uomini fossero pronti a lavorare per migliorare se stessi e cambiare ciò che impedisce loro di chiedere alla ragazza che amano di sposarli.

Per mettere tutto insieme

The number 13 has a very bad reputation because so many people consider it unlucky. However, I need to disagree because these 13 subtle hints saved my heart and made me realize that I shouldn’t be wasting a minute more on a man who isn’t ready to love me.

Spero anche che ti abbia aiutato a capire quando smettere di aspettare che lui ti chieda di sposarlo. If you’ve recognized most of these signs, as much as it seems heartbreaking to you now, you must let go of that man.

It’s clear that he isn’t even thinking about marrying you and has no intention of doing so any time soon. Andare avanti from a long-term relationship is beyond hard, but it’s way harder to stay with someone who doesn’t love you the same way you love them.
