How Long Is Too Long to Wait Until He Proposes?

This question is very solid and whether you are currently engaged, dating, or single the answer to this question will help you tremendously for when it is time to cross this bridge.Time is a very important commodity not only in relationship, but also in life in general. It is through time that things have the opportunity to mature, develop, and evolve granting the ability to make sound decisions.
Even God understands the power of time and seasons. We find the Bible stating in Ecclesiastes 3:1, “For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.”
In relationships timing is basically everything. Something done too soon could ruin the potential of that thing, but also something done too late could also have an equal amount of damage.
Now, hear me when I say this. There is no one size fits all in regards to timing for the decision to marry.
What does that mean? You cannot base your timeline on someone else’s timeline. Now, is there a such thing as to long?
Yes.
But, is everyone’s to long measuring stick going to be the same?
No.
My wife and I were engaged after only 4 months of dating and married 6 months later. I didn’t use anyone else’s relationship as the measuring stick, but simply used wisdom as the measuring stick.I knew she was the right one for me and we both were in the right season to make that commitment. This is after receiving the peace and permission from God, her parents, my pastor, my parents, and my close friends. I believe strongly in community.
A man that knows what he wants will make it happen and will communicate his intentions to you.
A man that isn’t ready for marriage will find every excuse in the book to prolong the decision for marriage. This is why you must guard your heart, mind, and body until he fully earns all access to you by putting a ring on your finger.
The greatest key to eliminate any form of confusion during your dating process is communication. My wife and I were able to have a serious conversation about our future, while I was still able to keep an element of surprise for when I proposed.
 
I always say, when you see those marriage proposals gone bad it’s because there was no communication prior to that moment.
