I just heard a program today and the msg was..
If a man absolutely loves, respects and adores a woman, he marries her. He doesn't just shack up with her.. Of course host of the program was a lady.. If you're available and sex is there, he shack up with you instead of marrying you..
Now,, how many friends do YOU know who are or have been living with a guy without a ring on her finger? I know a couple, and she's been living with him for over 3 years.. Still no M word... yes, she cooks, cleans, does his gardening, gives him SEX AND buys groceries with HER money. She claims she gets "free" rent... but is it really free? First, he needs a place to live anyway, so he is gonna have to pay rent SOMEWHERE. Second, she does all the labor in exchange for it.

It seems to me a lot of men do not want to get married unless there are some "incentives" to gain. If you provide sex, all the convenience, what incentives does he have to marry you really?
As adage goes... why get cow when you can get all the milk?
So I am thinking maybe I am going to have to wait until my honeymoon day to give him sex?
