I have even told him that I hope we get married someday(and for me someday could not be soon enough)When it comes to this subject he is not a big talker.When I flat out ask him if this is something he hopes for in the future his response is "We'll see".I don't mind giving a person some time but I need to move on if this is not something he sees in his future.I love him-but I love myself too much to let him string me along when there is someone out there who wont be so wishy washy about their future with me. if you have to give someone an ultimatium-do you really want to be with them??2.His mother lives a great distance from us so he doesn't see her often. He has told her about me. HOWEVER-after 2 years of being around my children daily he has yet to tell her about them.I asked him if he was ashamed of the kids and I and he said "oh baby is not that-you'll just have to trust me on this one.WHAT IS GOING ON HERE??

I didn't ask this in my other post but what is the reason you want to get married?
If you know he loves you and the relationship is stable, why want more?
I agree with DaBeez on this one too. I think you're fantasizing a wedding and white picket fence, living happily ever after and life's not like that. Sounds like he's not really into the kids either.
