    14 years is long enough.... at least get married so that she has the same last name as you and your child.

    After 14 years, both of y'all are dumb.

    She's dumb for expecting it and you're dumb for not just marrying the woman.
    Thats some pretty judgmental words for someone who shouldn't be judging people..

    Aint you in a new relationship? How long do think you can play house b4 you start hinting at marriage. What if yo ? don't think its the right time, will you stop ? with him after all the years y'all put into a relationship over a piece of paper?

    I wasn't trying to make this about me, but my girl is a good woman she just folding under the pressure of her mother and sister( who husband turn out to be a flaming ? ) to get married. Its not like it will mean the word to her, she just want it done to shut other people up and she think i don't know thats her reason because b4 we would talk about how overrated marriage was, now all of a sudden after her mother put her on blast at her family reunion a few years back saying she will never get married, the next day I start getting ultimatums from my girl to marry her or let her go( which let me know she ain't going nowhere because why would you say let me go when you can leave)

    Its not that I don't love her, or that I won't entertain the thought of marrying her, Its the ultimatum part that make me standoffish and she knows that.

    Nobody should be giving you ultimatums, and it's nobody's business what's going on with you guys. I get the rebellious type feelings you have since people want to try to tell you what to do, and yes they're out of line. That's not a good reason to pressure you into marriage.That being said, it's been 14 years AND you have a child with her. I think it's time to do it if for no other reason than your kid(s).

    Dont marry her bruh. If you havent ask yet something deep down is telling you not to. Most likely you are comfortable in this relationship. Being comfortable never last forever.

    14 years and a child together.. you scared of commitment bruh? Do you live together? Why would marriage make anything different that you should seperate?

    marriage makes a lot of ? different

    don't do it son, please reconsider

    these chicks in the powder room got an agenda they have to push haha

    I personally don't believe marriage is to blame but rather the parties involved and what they make of it.

    The only stopping me is I feel there's no reason for us to get married, what we got going on is fine the way it is.
    Like I said its not a big deal to her because I know how she really act when she want something. but after talking to her I can understand where she coming from so I'm going to look for a ring and ask b4 the year out.

    shorty marriage isn't going to help the bolded tho

    realistically she can divorce him and get child support

    or just break up with him and get child support



    so basing it off of finances alone.............it's more economical to just stay bf/gf from the man's perspective

    guarantee if she stayed for 14yrs, it's obviously for a reason

    t/s would be dumb to legally lock himself into a situation that doesn't provide him an extra benefit

    as long as he isn't living in a community property state, he's good

    I can't speak for all women, but with most women including myself...no woman will stay in a relationship if the male isn't speaking on marriage.
