helppp!! can you please help me with this???
My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 years. We were almost engaged at one point but had money problems so he backed out. We are doing better than ever now and he is about to come into alot of money. He told me he wants to make sure verything is "right" before he asks me to marry him. In other words, financially stable and a place to live and everything. How can I drop him hints Im about to give up waiting?? Leave bridal magazines around? What?? Please help??

Wow... If you are almost ready to give up waiting, he needs to know he's about to lose the most important person in his life!! If the hints aren't working, you've got to have a heart-to-heart with your guy. He thinks it's okay to wait and wait, but he needs to know it's not.
You should also tell him that YOU don't need things to be perfect before you get married. That's what marriage is.. you deal with things together. Is he going to freak out if he has money problems after marriage, or will you two just deal with it together? The latter, of course!
Let me tell you another thing.. before I got engaged, I was terrified of getting married. I wasn't sure if I was ready and I was ready to drag it out forever. But my (then) boyfriend made it clear that he wasn't going to be one of those couples who are together forever but never make a commitment to one another. I had to be honest with myself and ask myself, "Do I want to lose this man?" The answer was no. We got engaged, then married, and we've been married for three years and it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself. We are very happy together.
So in a nutshell, you need to tell him, girl. You can't wait forever, and you shouldn't.
