Desperate for Marriage?
Hello Everyone,
Today, a friend of mine expressed that I’m desperate for love/marriage. I was offended by the comment and I didn’t understand the root of my anger/hurt. I couldn’t grasp the reason I was so mad. Is it possible that my friend was correct? Is it possible that my friend confuses my desire for love as desperation? I don’t know the answer to either question and I wish to figure it out.
Since a teenager, I wanted to be loved and married. I correlated happiness with marriage. I always wanted someone to love me and desire me forever. I desire marriage so much because it displays to ME that I’m worthy and that someone thinks I’m special. It demonstrates that someone truly cares for me. I’m currently in a new relationship (three months) and we’re already discussing marriage. Also, I moved in with my boyfriend within a three month span. I have several questions for everyone and would be so grateful for guidance: Do you think I’m desperate for marriage? Do you think I’m moving too fast?
Hello, Starr.
It doesn't seem to me like you are desperate for love/marriage, but only you can truly answer that question for yourself. Everyone, including our friends, may have their own opinion/outlook on how we are doing things in our life. You have every right to be upset at what they said because their comment was hurtful to you. As humans, we all desire companionship and to be loved by others, it's who we are. No one can tell you how fast you are moving in your relationship. I think the question I have for you is do you think you are moving fast? Did it feel right to move in with your boyfriend after 3 months? How do you feel about the relationship right now?
I have the same problem.My ex boyfriend told me that he is not ready to settle down and get married.In the end we broke off the relationship of 2 years and at all this he told me how I rushed to get married and find a romantic man as if it was the only thing in life.
