Almost 5 years and still waiting
Posted: Jan 11, 2013 4:58 PM

Hi,

I am 25 and my boyfriend is 29 (30 in november) and we have been together for almost 5 years and living together now for almost a year. I want to get married to this man that I love and start a family together. I have asked him about getting married before and all I keep getting is yes it will happen, or your day will come soon and other things like that. Sometimes he will be sarcastic when I say things as well. He says this every time we talk so I am not sure I really believe it anymore. One time we talked and he said he was scared. I know it is a scary step, but if you love someone shouldn't you want to start this new chapter with that person? That is what I keep telling myself and it depresses me that I am just not sure when and if he will ever ask my to marry him. In my head I have told myself that if I don't have a ring on my finger by our 5 year anniversary I really need to evaluate the situation ( i have told him this as well). Am I wrong in thinking that a man should now about his future life with you before 5 years together and if he wanted what I wanted it would have happened already? I sometimes feel like I am wasting my time and my mom is pressuring me saying that if 5 years comes and goes then he has not changed and I should leave. To add to the mess my 20 year old brother is propossing to his girlfriend in a couple of months. I feel so left behind. I have given him everything and put in everything I just dont know what to do.

What is the reason he does not agree to marry you?Romance for a period of five years, should be able to be fruition!If in multiparty pressure, he also unwilling to marry you, then you should consider of your own situation, can not simply be patient and waiting!Hope you can go into the wedding hall with your lover as soon as possible!

Big brother got the best of little brother in a unique NFL duel.

The Baltimore Ravens tied a franchise record with nine sacks and beat the San Francisco 49ers 16-6 Thursday night, giving John Harbaugh reason to celebrate after the first NFL game featuring brothers as opposing head coaches.

The Ravens (8-3) chased, hindered and battered Alex Smith for much of the night despite playing without middle linebacker Ray Lewis, the team's leading tackler and spiritual leader. Ray Lewis Purple Jersey Lewis was inactive for a second straight game with a foot injury.

Terrell Suggs had three sacks for Baltimore, which moved a half-game ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC North.

San Francisco (9-2) had its eight-game winning streak broken under rookie coach Jim Harbaugh.

John, 49, and Jim, 47, grew up dueling each other in all sorts of games. Competing this time on a national stage, John secured an emotional win over his little brother.Ray Lewis Black Jersey

During the final minute, John got a Gatorade bath from his players – twice. After the final whistle, the brothers hugged at midfield.

Baltimore broke a 6-6 tie with a 76-yard, 16-play drive that lasted more than 7 1/2 minutes and ended with an 8-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco to tight end Dennis Pitta with 14:56 left. Flacco went 4 for 4 for 34 yards and a touchdown on third down during the drive.

Billy Cundiff wrapped up the scoring with his third field goal, a 39-yarder with 4:16 remaining.Ray Lewis White Jersey

In a game dominated by both defenses, Flacco finished 15 for 23 for 161 yards and Ray Rice ran for 59 yards on 21 carries.

Smith completed 15 of 24 passes for 140 yards and an interception. He never could get into a rhythm against an aggressive defense that rarely let him set up in the pocket.Colin Kaepernick Red Jersey

The 49ers began the third quarter with a 13-play drive that lasted 7 1/2 minutes and produced a 52-yard field goal by David Akers for a 6-6 tie. The key play was an 18-yard completion from Smith to Michael Crabtree on a third-and-17 from the San Francisco 26.

The Ravens responded with their lone touchdown drive of the game.Ray Lewis Ravens JJersey

Baltimore sacked Smith four times in the first half and picked off a pass in taking a 6-3 lead.

The Ravens took the opening kickoff and moved 55 yards – 38 of them on a pair of Flacco-to-Anquan Boldin completions – before Cundiff kicked a 39-yard field goal.

Late in the first quarter, a 20-yard completion from Smith to tight end Vernon Davis set up a 45-yard field goal by Akers.

The 49ers blew a chance to take the lead when Frank Gore was penalized for a chop block on a 75-yard touchdown pass from Smith to Ted Ginn, who got behind Cary Williams deep down the middle.Ray Lewis Youth Jersey

Neither team had much luck moving the ball until San Francisco's Tarell Brown was called for pass interference on a long pass to Torrey Smith. The 50-yard penalty put the ball at the 15, and although the Ravens turned it into a first-and-goal at the 4, they had to settle for a 23-yard field goal with 2:51 left in the half.
