Have you been dating over a year? Are you the same race as the girl? Is she “ the one and only soulmate that is perfect for you”?
If yes, talk to her, plan it ( at their home, maybe a Sunday) and be honest and direct and ask. If they have worries or questions, be prepared to answer them and work on whatever they ask.
No, Yes, Yes. I have no idea what worries they could have, or what questions to ask
If everything is great, don’t rush. Take your time. Is there some reason you feel the need to rush into marriage?
I dont personally feel rushed, but ive been receiving lots of conflicting information from multiple sources which is confusing me. My church was telling me dont wait, do it now. Than she was saying we should wait, but now she wants to get married soon and wants me to ask her parents. But if i cant gauge the parents' reactions, i dont even want to touch the subject, since my gf has given me very very conflicting reactions on what to expect from the parents.
So it doesn't go bad over time? What else is there to wait for?
