I never understood that, people always say "men are ready when there ready and no women can change that" but that's mostly crap. In my own personal life and in general when a man really is into a woman he doesn't take long to make it official Unless hes too nervous. It's only when he sorta kinda likes the girl and is weighing his other(possibly better) options.
Agreed. If it's the right girl he'll want to take her off the market immediately. If he's 'eh' about her he'll hesitate and draw it out because he might meet someone better. Seems fairly simple to me.
Well really, every person is ready when they're ready. It doesn't matter if they are a man or a woman. Could be longer with one person than it took the same person with someone else I would imagine it depends on numerous factors.
Likely people believe guys take long to commit as it is true for some guys and it's a way for gals to rationalize why a guy won't commit to her without having to do any negative self-reflections. No different than people believing gals like jerks as it is true for some gals and it's a way for guys to rationalize why they aren't successful with women without having to do any negative self-reflections.

This is what the women on C-D have been saying whenever this comes up on a thread. It's some of the men who say they want to be players all their life. When I posted on the women-push-for-marriage thread that actually, it's the guys who usually are in a hurry, guys posted I was crazy. But the women pretty much agreed that it was their husband who proposed when they were least expecting it, and not really interested in marriage at the time. When a guy's into a woman, he doesn't want to risk losing a good thing.
If you're thinking LT, then a guy wants:
a) to see her true colors, some of which are displaying themselves a little at a time, and
b) think about what she might turn into when she hits the wall

Sounds like you really need to take your own advice.

I see your general point but I'm not really talking about marriage though(that generally takes a while because its a life decision), i just mean an exclusive relationship.

Unsure how it sounds like I really need to take my own advice when nowhere have I made statements, suggestions, or implications about my dating life placing blame on men to avoid negative self-reflections.
I'm not unsure on why you avoided the OP to comment on my post.
