Marriage is not really very easy thing to do it's a great responsibility. if you are interested in asking about your boyfriend about marriage, you are sure of marrying him. If not please rethink. Once you're sure then you can start talking about future plans, if he looks serious you can tell him what you think of your future with him. you can ask for marriage or if you are finding it difficult to ask face to face you can always use texts message or email. Best of luck from my end. I hope it will work for you

The easiest way. Explain your vision and your idea, along with a range of feelings you've developed so far. Be open and listen to your boyfriend's background and currently feelings about it. Don't be too pushy or judging. Your partner comes before a contract, and so do your needs. In case there's an overlap of needs, yay! In case there are differences in values, timing, feelings and expectations, reduce this Big Talk into little bits and keep it friendly. Don't overdue this. Face just one aspect per time and give your partner time to absorb information or develop its own idea.

Marriage is a very vert serious topic which might be scary to a few people at times because it is kind of a commitment you wish to devote yourself to for your lifetime. If your boyfriend is serious to the core about your relationship, talking to him about marriage shouldn’t be that hard a task. You can start by telling them your thoughts and views upon marriage. You can also list the examples of some beautiful and successful married couples around you. Then you can tell him that you wish to get married someday too and that you would like him to be your partner, that is, only if he consented to it

I know from experience how not to talk to your boyfriend about marriage! I used to find this really emotive. My best advice would be to talk calmly and openly about how you feel, and try not to take anything he says about it as a personal attack or judgement. But that is easier said than done, and when I used to talk to my boyfriend about marriage it usually ended in tears (mine) and anger (mine)! Because he said it was pointless and we weren’t ready yet anyway, which I took as I’m not good enough. But we’re now happily married, all my tears were unnecessary!

Talk about your future goals in life and if you guys are on the same page then casually bring it up, don't bombard him with the idea. If you both are in a committed, loving relationship, then it should be natural to talk about marriage or long term commitment. Always pay attention to the things he says during normal conversation because they might show some small hints as to how he feels about it. Be an attentive listener. Boys are shy too, so they might not tell you their opinion about marriage upfront. Instead, they're more likely to drop hints here and there. So remember to pay attention to his words. Communication is key when it comes to long term relationships, so being open to each other is also really important.

There comes time in every relationship when we need to know if we have the same partnership goals. Asking your partner what their intentions are in having a future together is difficult and frightening. Partly because we put ourselves at risk of possible rejection, and partly because we leave ourselves vulnerable and are forced to face our insecurities. However, it is important to make sure the commitments we make that include another person and affect our future are on the same page.
If you've been in a relationship that is secure, committed and You have a good, healthy line of communication established, and you're ready to move onto an even greater level of commitment with your partner go ahead and ask them how they see and what they hope the future holds in store for the both of you as a couple.
Gently, calmly speak from your heart and task them where they see you both going as a couple.
But remember that above all else you yourself must make sure that your partner is capable of taking care of your heart, mind and personal needs. You first must know your own intentions before asking what your partners are.

Ease into the conversation, maybe bring up some friends who are getting married. Drop subtle hints. Being too forward may scare him away. Ask him about the future and if he sees you in his. That should give you an idea of where you stand. If he doesn't want you in his future, walk away now but if mentioning the future excites him then maybe bring up the idea of marriage. Its a touchy subject but some people are just afraid of commitment and see marriage as something too long term. Play it by ear see how he feels.

Being curious about how your boyfriend sees the world means you are respectful about his viewpoints on all topics including marriage, friendships, children and money. With that approach in the relationship it becomes natural to ask a question to open up the discussion that feels right for you; What is your perspective about marriage? What do/did you like about your parent's marriage? What role do you imagine marriage plays in commitment? With active listening and open ended questions the conversation feels safe for your boyfriend and for you to be open hearted and reflective about your different perspectives. One final thought - practise walking together it tends to create a safe environment for many.

If you feel you guys are in that place, you can bring it up. Careful not to bring it up too pre-maturely though. You know where you guys are at best. you know your dynamic and relationship inside out. be honest with yourself, be honest with each other. That is most important.

If you don’t, and feel you’re at the right point in your relationship, you could prepare the proposal on your own, and propose to him. Trust me as a guy, it would be an unforgettable gesture. However, I don’t think that answers your question. I don’t know your boyfriend, and what kind of commitment he’s looking for, but you clearly need a conversation to figure out where you are both heading to. The word marriage needn’t be pronounced, but seeing if he wants such a celebration, if he wants to raise a family, or if he wants to take things slow and more relaxed. Try to plan things in the future, and see how far off he’s planning for the both of you
