Hello,

I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years, he treats me in an awesome way! He is super loving and sweet, very generous, and always tells me how much he loves me. But he doesn’t want to get married, he says he has fear of committement, but I think it is just because of his age! In all cases, neither do I, well at least not anytime soon. What bothers me is when I sometimes mention a friend who got married, he would say “Hopefully we’ll see your wedding someday”. But he is actually referring to me marrying someone else. What does that mean? Why would he wish I marry someone else? It is so confusing everytime he says it, and it makes me really frustrated and insecure. Is it normal for a boyfriend to wish his girlfriend marry someone else?

Thanks,

He’s sending you a message loud and clear that he’s not in this relationship for the long run. By telling you that he hopes to see you married one day — to someone else — he’s trying to get you to believe him because he thinks you don’t. If you do want to get married one day, and you’re of an age when that’s a possibility in the future, he’s not your Mr. Right and you should find someone who has a compatible life goal. I think this is bothering you because you do want to get married, and you want him to want the same thing — but he doesn’t. There is nothing confusing here — he’s being straightforward with you. You’re mixing things up in your own head, and my advice is to pay attention to what he’s telling you. 😉
