How to talk to your boyfriend about marriage?

I feel like it depends mostly on how long you've been dating & your level of comfort with them, so if you're comfortable, by all means straight up ask :)

Sit down and discuss your feelings to each other. Say your love for one another and your feelings for the future.

Start with how happy they make you and how you love feeling like that. And just add on to future possibilities of being together

Be honest about what you want and are looking for. I wouldn't have an expectation of when everything should happen. But at least talk to them about what you both want, from life, from each other, what your expectations are at the moment ;) Be honest and open with each other!

Maybe make some little cute codes! Like look at some cute wedding themes or cute dresses and suits for bridegrooms and brides. But if he still can't notice it, just tell him that you need to talk in a serious way! (:

Sit down when both people are calm. If face to face is too nerve wrecking then consider writing a letter about it. Express your feelings and be honest!

If you're interested in talking about marriage with your boyfriend, it's important to be honest about where you see your relationship going, and be open to his opinions too. Communication is key.

Sit him down and give him a few hints as in talking about it or walking past a wedding shop and saying "that could be us soon"

I would talk to him calmly (of course I know that's harder to do than to say, but... well gotta try). I would ask him if he would want to take things forward. Or I would mention things like 'when we get married I want to get a puppy' (there is a difference between saying 'when we get married' and 'if we get married'). Or I would just generally ask him what are his thoughts about marriage.

Just be honest and open with him. Sit him down and tell him that your thinking about marriage and want to be with him for the rest of your life. get his perspective about it.

Get to the point. Keep it simple, but not demanding. Something like "I know I'm going to get married one day. Not today or even tomorrow, but it's something I want in the future. How do you feel about it?"

A lot of people try to talk to their significant other about this subject without being honest. Honesty is key. If this is important to you transmit that when speaking of the subject. You can either approach the subject straight to the point. Ex. "One of my goals towards happiness includes marriage. I am not saying that this has to happen tomorrow or anytime soon, but I do want this in my future. How do you feel about marriage?" To some people this approach is scary. Another way to bring it up is when someone around your circle is in the process of getting married or already did. It is important to avoid language like "when are you going to marry me?" Always phrase the question in a way that is not accusatory and invites them to speak their minds.

With full honesty, not imposing anything on him though, but listening to his opinions instead. Don't be afraid to start this topic, he will listen to what you have to say because he loves you :)

Marriage is a huge step. When you feel ready to talk to your boyfriend about this, chances are he might feel the same way. I think a great way to begin is to ask open-ended questions like "How do you feel about where we are in our relationship?" or by simply telling your boyfriend how much you love him and how committed you are to him. Knowing you're 100% in the relationship for the long haul might just be the assurance he needs.

I would say to just bring it up to him! I would start it out like, "so, I feel as though we are meant to be. Everything flows so naturally and fluently. Do you feel the same?" and if he says yes, continue with, "well, how do you feel about marriage?" If his answer is a positive one, ask him when he feels getting married is appropriate. It's always important to be on the same page! Please don't feel discouraged.

Tell him honestly that you want to have a serious talk with him. You can schedule it when both of you are free and comfortable to talk about it with each other. Calmly address the issue and ask what does he think of it. If he's not okay discussing it, give him the time to think about through first. Talk when he's ready and when he has thoroughly and carefully thought about it. Remember, you don't necessarily have to rush in discussing on the spot. Both of you should take the time you need. This is about the future of you both after all. Carefully go through it together :)

Guys can be freaked out easily. However, if he is an adult, then he should realize that dating is not a game anymore. You two should have a common end goal. That doesn't mean you have to get married tomorrow, but you should be able to approach him about where he sees the relationship going.

It is easy once you know that you're in that same place. But to know if you are, that's the toughest part. I think that it should be done slowly, like for few days drop hints about your relationship commitment level and then slowly asking him about marriage(general topic), or discussing about someone else's marriage. If you know his level you will be able to analyze the situation better. If you realize he is at the same place in a relationship where you are then take him out on a nice date and discuss your future plans. If he isn't at the same place as you then you should give him some more time and get him be comfortable to the idea of marriage as you'll keep on dropping hints. If you can't wait then you have to explain him your side, again on a dinner or some nice date would be advisable, simply explain him why you need to get married and ask him if you are there in his future plans. Just don't do it suddenly, make him prepared and comfortable to talk about this. Marriage is a sensitive topic, and the situation can be fragile. Be sensitive and understanding, maybe you will fix a date soon for the happy occasion, who knows?

Broach the subject subtly to know their stand on the relationship and how open they would be to the topic Be open and approach the subject with sensitivity towards each others feelings about the topic. Always be truthful and not to jump to negative conclusions when their response isnt what you expected.

I guess thats a simple thing to do. If two persons are in love with each other and the boy is not taking the step forward, so its better the girl takes the step and ask for it rather than waiting :)

Marriage is a big deal. Bringing up marriage in a conversation can be daunting but in the right time, place and the right mood it can be the start of a successful conversation.

maybe start by asking what their thoughts are on marriage and if they plan of getting married in the future, then slowly you can ease into the two of you and how marriage will play a role in your future.

Well you would have to figure that out, you can ask him questions you would need to know about him before marriage. But you can just bring up the question. Ask "What do you think about talking about marriage, not saying we need to anytime soon, but your views about it with us?" & see how he reacts.

Simply ask him if he wants to seek a future with you. Ask him how does he feel about being with you.

Start the conversation slowly, but remain honest about how you feel. Be open minded to an answer you might not want, and make the convorsation ongoing.

Set some time aside to talk to your boyfriend face to face about any ideas you have about marriage.

You can ask: whether there is any plans for the future together, what do he think about marriage, what is his long term goals, what does marriage mean or have he thought about marriage.

Has he ever brought the subject up? You should sit him down, and just talk about what you two are looking to get out of the relationship. See if marriage is a mutual want.

Broach the subject casually, maybe watch a film where marriage is heavily featured, or something alike, and keep the conversation very casual. Maybe ask his views on marriage and what age he would want to get married. Just don't pressure him into giving answers, and don't get annoyed if your answers don't exactly line up - relationships are all about compromise!

Marriage is a big step! It is important your values and goals are similiarly aligned. Where you are in life and how to achieve your goals is paramount. BE sure to take the time to know about the big issues in life like education, work, career, where to live, babies, finances, and so much more! Give both of you the gift of knowing each other well enough to discuss all these issues freely and follow your heart when the values and goals align! 😉🦋
