My boyfriend and I have been together for 3 years. He is 24 and I am 25. I already know I want to marry him some day but I'm not sure if we are on the same page.
Right now I live with him and his sisters. Originally it was their family house but his mom got married and moved out, all his sisters moved out but moved back in due to relationship issues. So now it's me, him, his two sisters, and one of their boyfriends. After two years I feel like I'm sooo ready to get our own place. But he pays for the mortgage while everyone else pays for utilities so it might affect them if he moves, although they would be able to easily afford it.
I am also wanting to get married in 2-4 years but I'm not sure if he is ready. A year ago we said 27/28 was good age to get married but he was concerned about his studies and salary. He thinks he doesn't make enough and he wants to finish school to get a better job. The thing is, it would take him like 8 years going part time and I would hate to wait that long to get married.
I feel like money shouldn't be a huge deal. A lot of his friends are married or have kids and they make the same, if not less, than we do together combined.
What should I do? I want us to have our own place and I want to know we will get married before we are 30...but he seems to be more daydreaming about spending money on his car. He doesn't spend money like crazy but I'm just saying his head doesn't seem to be about marriage. I asked him if maybe we could move and get our own place in 2 years once we save up enough and he said he'll consider it. But we didn't discuss it further.. I don't want to live with him and his sisters for the next 3 years.. as for marriage, I'm not in a rush. I just want to know if he wants to marry me one day and if it's before I'm 30.
