How to "nicely" escape a relationship where pressured to propose?

[IroNat]

Why buy when you can lease?

[Gym Rat]

Didn’t you cheat on your dying wife at a homosexual gloryhole?

Disgusting libtard

Your life is on the line, run and never look back. Don't end up like me.

I think it is. I am too weak to tell her to get lost.

you also dont believe that you are bald, yet here we are

Same pertinent questions I’ll ask again:

1. What is the point of being “boyfriend and girlfriend” past 23 years old, the age at which most people are done with education or professional training?
2. Why do men live with women they are not going to form a family with or who share serious life goals with?

Being a “boyfriend” is one of the lowest positions a grown man can be in.

Sounds more like you're looking for reasons to justify your marriage

You have it the wrong way round. Being a long term girlfriend is the lowest position.

 A long term "boyfriend" who is in control of the relationship dynamics can have all the benefits he would get in a marriage without giving the "girlfriend" the commitments that might be expected of him in a marriage.

It's actually a pretty selfish thing to do as the boyfriend is basically having his cake and eating it.

Life is hard but it is a lot easier with a good woman. I feel bad so many of you are grown and haven't found a good partner. Or maybe you have and just don't realize it and appreciate it. My only advice is find a woman your age that laughs at your jokes and actually enjoys your company. Look for a woman that is looking for you not some bimbo half your age that barely speaks English and just sits around in awkward silence.

I do not seek to justification for what I do, let alone on the internet with strangers. I wanted a family, so that’s what I did. I’m inquiring about what the point of being a boyfriend is, which is investment of resources for… oh… I don’t know.

And yes, I’m aware of boyfriends in the positions of employers in the employer-employee dynamic of most boyfriend-girlfriend relationships. I do not think most boyfriends are the employers.

The next thing we will witness from this cuck is when he announces he is now in "love" with a '
"bioidentical feMale".

Same reason some men get married. They are desperate and lonely (there are 2 examples on this page of this thread)

You must live in a town or small city or something where mens choices are limited, but I know a lot of guys who are leading their "girlfriends" on and giving very little back. A lot of times they don't even let the girl tell others that they're in a relationship.

I lived and worked for 37 years in four of the boroughs of NYC.

I’m aware of the sort of high-status men you speak of.

Fomo for younger women. I try to fight these thoughts because it's not right

Do you have children? If not, why not just leave?

The only real benefit of having a wife is you no longer need to do grocery shopping, cooking, dishes, and laundry. Everything else is mostly downsides. Even sex is a chore because you are bored with the same person.

we live in my home so i cannot just leave and i am not prepared to deal with the hell that will unleash when i kick her to the curb. I tried a few times in the past and it was total madness

[Amerian Muscle]

Just need to deal with the situation and pray for the strength to endure

Good advices.  I'd also add - try not to pick up anyone drunk on a beach, and avoid women who are good at slamming car doors

Around certain women the silence is never awkward. It is just a welcomed lull.
