Prolivic: When my hubby proposed, I thought he had just bought me a new pair of shoes lol! However, we did speak about the future and kids in general terms, so I already knew I had to think about my answer before hand, just in case!
Lisa: Sorry it took so long to post but I would like to thank everyone for their comments to answer your question about our ages I'm 30 and he is 32 and I have two children from a previous relationship. He treats them as his own but his family whom he is very close with does not personally go out of their way to invite my boys and I to birthday party's or family dinners. They send him a text to him but his mother will text me if she needs me to do a favor. I find it rude and he doesn't say anything to her.
apple: Hate to sound cynical @lisa nicole but why buy the milk when you got the cow for free. You have been staying almost long enough for a common law marriage in the usa.
michel: @lisanicole if you want marriage then ask your boyfriend if he sees marriage in your future. Youve been together long enough so its perfectly ok to ask
Lisa: Interesting I've been with my boyfriend for almost 7 years and we have lived together for just about the same time. He doesn't put me in his future plans but he has become more responsible financially and is paying off his student loans but I just don't understand why it is taking forever. What do you ladies think? student loan
