Jealous of married/engaged people

  • Thread Starter

I have a close friend who's engaged and the wedding date has been set, and several other acquaintances from school etc. who are engaged or even married. I've been with my partner for nearly 3 years and we are both 23, while the friend I mentioned is the same age, as are the acquaintances.
I just worry that my boyfriend will never want to marry me. His family and some of my family have actually asked us when we'll be getting engaged etc. and I even thought he was going to propose to me a few months ago, but it has more recently transpired that he's just not into the idea.
He thinks we're too young (which I agree with, I am more upset that he has not expressed that he would like to marry me in the future- I'm not looking to get married tomorrow)
But he doesn't see the point of making promises for the future. He has this 'live for the moment' mentality and that we might not even be together in a few years; who knows what will happen etc. I suppose that people do break up etc, but I have committed myself to him and he knows it. I would never leave him for another person.
Even school bullies are married and engaged, and I just feel that he maybe doesn't love me enough to want to commit to a future with me.
Am I over-reacting? What does this sound like? Thanks in advance
