Im 10 years younger than my bf, I don't really think about it much. But when people ask how old my bf is they get shocked. What do you think about age difference?
age does matter when there are different life stages (e.g., one wants to settle down, the other still wants to party), but ultimately it's about your connection and compatibility. but then again, i am also a believer in doing what you want, and not others... and there are many who don't like that difference, for whatever reason.
in another thread you said age wasn't an issue for you and your bf. i think that's a good sign of what you think about the age difference. however, if he is not ready to commit to marriage and you are, that's different. my guess is your guy is either unsure about you as a long-term potential or marriage just isn't in his plans in the near future.
if i was 31 and had a 21yo gf, why would i get married? life is good, and kids will come some day, but not now.

Not a big deal as long as the maturity level is comparable and the life goals are in synct.
no. and honestly, at 21 I'm surprise you want to get married.
for many guys, marriage is end of the road as a single guy because he knows his lifestyle is going to change and his focus. so most guys first have to be comfortable that his gf is a "keeper" and then see whether it works for him at his career stage.

yea i know its hard for guys to leave their single lifestyle....

if he is happy with you and how things are going, why complicated your life with marriage plans? (guy logic)
so, my perspective is from a guy who got married later in life and recently got divorce and here is my lesson learned, and one that i share with other guys: marriage is for raising kids, if you aren't ready to have kids, don't get married.
like i said, if i was in his shoes, i wouldn't be in a rush to marry you, but i would definitely take care of you and our relationship so i wouldn't lose it. problem is some guys think if they got a good one, they think they may be equally as lucky in finding another keeper if this doesn't work out, which is stupid thinking. but you only figure that out after having multiple bad relationships.
