I am a 25 year old virgin and my boyfriend is 33 year old non-virgin. He and I have dated for over 2 years and I am getting frustrated now because he has not made any sort of committment . We are both saved and in fellowship with the Lord. This also includes the fact that we've saved sex for marriage. However, he is currently in a financial struggle to provide food, clothing and shelter,(I 've been praying for God's intervention in this matter and believe it will happen). Now I love this man very much to the extent where I am deeply burning inside. I suggested many times for us to still get marry, and with God's help as always, we will work as a team to make ends meet, but he continues to maintain silence on the matter. I even shared with him that I was burning with desire for him which is one of the reasons I want us to get marry soon. He has plans to attend school and get a second job in the coming year so as to better his financial situation (this he talks about). The problem is, when I am in love with somebody, I really love them (its very hard to break up or walk away easily). I believe in working things out to the very end. I have been with him through thick and thin; when he lost his job for months, car, and such like. I prayed and am still praying about the situation. I even pray and ask God as a solution, to take away this love and desire I have for this guy because I am tired of burning inside. He says he loves me and shows it sometimes in meaningful ways. I don't know why he isn't at the least making a proposal. He says he loves me all the time and wants me to be his wife. He introduces me to everyone as his wife to be. I can't see myself with any other guy. I shudder at the thought of it. What advice can you give?
