He needs to be a man and step up and do the right thing. Marriage is a big commitment and so is having a baby. I'm glad your parents are there to help you. They seem great. Hold on to them.

How do you know you are having a girl if your only 6 weeks?


Maybe he just isn't ready for that commitment. The baby is probably already a big thing on his mind. Let him digest that first then bring up marriage later on. Don't throw everything at him at one time.

How do you know what youre having if youre 6 weeks..?? And hes probably not ready.. marriage is a huge commitment and its very hard.. Theres so many things youll go thru and maybe he just needs more time to make sure hes ready for that road... Some ppl arent ready til theyre older and wiser.. Dont push it cuz if you get married now, and one of you or even both of you arent truly ready, youre setting yourself up for a divorce and rocky marriage if it survives.. Be patient..

My husband is from another country and he wanted to get his residency first and have enough money saved up for a big wedding before he proposed. He didn't want people to think he was marrying me for the wrong reasons and he wanted to be able to provide for us. He takes marriage very seriously. Waiting frustrated me and there were times I didnt understand because he never told me why at the time but it made it very special when we did get married.

Yes... he says he wants to be with me every day for the rest of our lifes. I just dont know what hes waiting for. We cant live together till he does unless we can aford a place on our own and we just cant... i want him living with me when the baby is born i dont wanna do it alone..

Maybe he just doesn't want to get married right now. Have you talked with him about it?
