I have been dating this guy for 3 years and I'm tired of where our relationship is at the moment . I had expected him to propose long before now and since he hasn't I have chosen to call it quits as I'm no longer getting young and so afraid of wasting time with him.
No, my support was empathetic.
no, not that I can think of.
The seeker gave a good situation and gave good responses
Great website, great task

Question
Yes, my boy friend of 3 years has refused to take our relationship to the next level and I'm kind of getting tired, I don't want to play games anymore

So just to make sure I understand completely, you are ready to move on to the next step of your relationship and you don't feel as though your boyfriend is and this is making you anxious and upset,

exactly, I hate to feel that I'm wasting my time
user

I completely understand that, as I was in a long term relationship and I felt as though my girlfriend at the time did not want to take things to the next step and I was not happy about it.
assistant
Self-disclosure
Yes, I love him so dearly to want to settle down with him, but if he doesn't want that for me I would rather call it quits now than continue and be disappointed at the long run.

Have you had that conversation with him? I know it might be a difficult conversation to have, but it is often good to get expectations out in the open so you are on the same page with your partner .
assistant
Providing Suggestions
Yes, sort of and he gave me the impression that he is not there yet and that was a like almost a year ago, I don't want it to look like I'm pushing him if I try to talk to him again about it. His nonchalant attitude in not seeing the seriousness of it is killing me, I'm just not happy.

That is tough, but sometimes people just portray things differently, for instance I am also very laid back and nonchalant about most things which can lead to miscommunications. I don't think it would be pushing if you haven't had that conversation in almost a year.
assistant
Self-disclosure,Providing Suggestions
I hope you are right, just don't want to come across as a desperate person and that's why I'm setting myself up to call it quits if he tries to sound like he sounded the last time.

You need to know where he is so you can make a good decision for yourself! I know it is difficult, but I know you can get through it!
assistant
