If he did, he would have by now. This "ring" issue is just a ruse.<BR/><BR/>Id never "date" someone for that long. My uncle has dated the same woman for 15-16 years - NEVER! Relationships (all kinds) should grow and evolve, and that kind of long-term dating rarely does.<BR/>LLola Getshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07058543308191117858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13873500.post-16708023458960617472007-03-28T19:13:00.000-05:002007-03-28T19:13:00.000-05:00@Midnight: The guy in questions actually not Afric...@Midnight: The guy in questions actually not African, I refer to him as "that African" in an attempt to not say <B>That Nigga</B> which is a phrase I overuse.

We get it, he's African; as am I.<BR/><BR/>Re: hustleman's comment, my experience with Americans, there are just as many American men who dilly-dally w.r.t. marriage as there are the worldover--including African men. His behaviour is in no way a direct reflection of the way African men behave towards the women they marry. Some are a**holes; some are the sweetest people on this planet; and then, you get those who fall between the two points.<BR/><BR/>Your colleague's situation reminds me of a story a friend told me last year. Her friend had been in a (so-so) rlp for a number of years and neither she, nor her partner had the heart to break things off. Surprise, surprise, they decided to get married. A month or so down the line, guess who's getting divorced?<BR/><BR/>Re: your colleague's situation: has it not occurred to her that he'll pi** around till she gets the message that he doesn't want to marry her? Or, that he's such a controlling pig, he won't even let her pick her own engagement ring? Either way, the purchase of the ring does not bode well for the start of their married life.Midnightblueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17399586567997445462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13873500.post-622154741338396912007-03-28T08:46:00.000-05:002007-03-28T08:46:00.000-05:00He just doesn't want to get married..PERIOD.After ...He just doesn't want to get married..PERIOD.<BR/><BR/>After 2 years, she should have bounced.<BR/><BR/>Glad you're back and that the job is GOING...LOL1969https://www.blogger.com/profile/15610490400251405386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13873500.post-40241500059195741672007-03-27T11:44:00.000-05:002007-03-27T11:44:00.000-05:00Honestly, I donn't think it has anything to do wit...Honestly, I donn't think it has anything to do with the ring.

Compromising on something that you really don't want to compromise on today, and tomorrow it'll be something bigger and so on and so forth. Then, it's going to get pretty ugly when she re-asserts herself and stands her ground on something that she will not be willing to compromise on.. Whew! Hi miss Robyn.

Being as I have never been married I know when the time comes to just move out the way and let my Lady do her thing with the ring, feel me?<BR/><BR/>But slowpoke is African, they dance to a different drum. Although his beat took 8 years... anyway sad to say she's going to do what she's going to do, but I feel you, a woman should love her ring. After all, it will be with her for the rest of her life... probably.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the laughs!The_Hustleman AKA James W.

Why? Because they are not really getting married. After dating all this time, I wonder do they plan to stay engaged for a decade like some folks do to keep family and friends from asking them why they haven't gotten married yet. Things don't look like they are leading to marriage or at least not to this guy. Maybe she'll meet another nice guy. Good luck to her anyway.Azizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11399593563134351596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13873500.post-62854638129401150922007-03-20T15:57:00.000-05:002007-03-20T15:57:00.000-05:00I had a fight about the ring, too.
