He Still Hasnt Popped the Question. Should You Give Him an Ultimatum?




Reducing Your Pain In Childbirth
Pain is the word most associated with labor. Women go to great lengths to deal with the discomforts of childbirth. They attend classes, .....


Youve been dating the man forever, and he has yet to cough up

a ring. You spend every single weekend with him. You endure his

flatulent buddies from college. You put up with his lunatic

mother. You alternate spending holidays with his family and

yours, spending handsome sums on gifts for his nieces and

nephews. You cook for him. Youve baked him birthday cakes.

Occasionally you even do his laundry.



Should you give him an ultimatum? Doesnt he owe it to you to

marry you after all youve done for him?



No.



After all, it was you who decided to endure people you dont

like. It was your idea to cozy up to his nieces and nephews to

show him how much you love children. You cooked and baked and

did his laundry to prove that youre superior wife material. All

this in the hopes of winning the ultimate prize package: The

ring! The dress! The 7-day/6-night trip to the romantic

destination of your choice!



And all he ever does is take you for granted.



Of course he takes you for granted. You dont have a life of

your own. Your goal in life is to get married, youre pinning

your hopes on him, and he knows it. Put yourself in his place:

Wouldnt you take you for granted?



If you truly love him (and consider this carefully; do you love

him, or do you love the idea of getting married?), dont give

him an ultimatum. Its never smart to give any man an ultimatum.

Ask yourself: Do you really want to marry a guy you had to

strong arm? Dont you deserve better?



Ask yourself what marriage to an ambivalent husband might be

like. If the guy takes you for granted now, how bad will he be

in five years when youve given birth to children who scribble

on the kitchen wall, and he remains slumped on the couch while

you scurry to scrub it off? How bad will he be in 10 years when,

on top of cooking, cleaning, and laundry to do, you still have

homework to supervise and Halloween costumes to make?



Stop yourself now. Otherwise, one day sooner than you think, you

will find yourself among the legions of women who complain that

their husbands never do a damn thing around the house, and

youll have nobody to blame but yourself.

How To Cut Down On College Stress
Copyright 2005 Trevor Dumbleton

Probably the least appreciated form of stress is college stress. This is mostly due to the fact that adults simply see a lot of college students sitting .....


So, take a step back. Decide what you really want from life.

Determine whether this particular man is the right companion for

the trip. Cease spending all your free time with him. Replace a

bad habit with a good one by taking a class, signing up for

yoga, or going away for the occasional weekend with the friends

youve been neglecting since you hooked up with Whats-His-Name.

In other words, dont be so available.



Fill your time with opportunities to meet new people. Get to

know yourself better (youre worth getting to know). By all

means, hang out with the guy every now and then but limit time

with his family. Resist all inclinations to wife and mother

him. Let him bake you a cake for a change.



Will he come to his senses? Will he fall on both knees and make

all your Cinderella fantasies come true?



Well, here are three possibilities: 1) He wont miss you all

that much, freeing you to find happiness elsewhere; 2) Youll

realize you dont miss him all that much and hold out for a man

wholl love you as much as you love him; or 3) Hell ask you to

marry him, and youll tell him yes or no, confident that youre

making the right choice for your own future happiness.



Keep in mind that if you say yes, the guys obnoxious college

buddies and lunatic mother are part of the package. If youre

clever, you may get away with scaling back on his nieces and

nephews gifts a bit. How much baking, cooking, and laundry you
