Idk what it is with some of the men I date. I've been proposed to twice before after making it crystal clear I dont believe in marriage. It's like they get a time frame or idea in their minds and everything I've said over the last 2 or 3 years just goes out the window.
Wow. Those are perfect. Rather than feel sorry for those guys, I always think "Serves you right for staging some corny public event that puts your girlfriend on the spot."
Also, "serves you right for not being sure of her feelings before you popped the question."

You should take it as a compliment that men see you as marriage material.
No kidding. Oh poor me, woe is me, I keep getting proposed to, whatever will I do.
I think you could have much bigger problems than people wanting to marry you. Make it clear that if he proposes, you won't accept. That's it.
It is annoying because its a lengthy process, when you love someone, to move past saying "no". It takes probably as much time as cheating would, and sometimes the relationship never fully recovers.

Well, also, there is a manipulative element to it. He's probably thinking "Well how can she say no if she loves me and I've bought a ring (and have possibly asked her to marry me in front of a huge crowd of people who will think she's a ***** for refusing)?"

I'm just grumpy today so that probably came off meaner than I intended.
Honestly if I felt how you do about marriage, I would make it very, very, VERY clear from the start that I wouldn't say yes, regardless of circumstances. Discourage it from early on.
