Please read my earlier posts on my ex and how I still think of her and miss her. Add this to it and you can see why I am clearly an idiot and an emotional mess.

Me and my GF have been living together for almost 1 yr (we were living together) the day we started dating. Moved in as freidns and then poof... Anyway, she is really ready for marriage and sometimes I think I am too. However, I jumped into this reltionship literally right after my last and first serious one where I was engaged. To say I was devastated by my last relationship is an understatement. There is no question that the current GF and I were each other's bandaids (she had recently broken up also). She has moved past that faster than I have and is ready for commitment, kids, etc. I would love to give that to her, but cannot yet. Still reeling from my last relationship, not sure, etc..etc. I am caught between not wanting to lose a great girl and doing something I am clearly not ready for and unsure of.. Any advice?? By the way I see her point of view and mine clearly- that's the real bummer. Some days I feel like she may be it and other days I'm like I don't think so..

If you're not 100% totally ready then DON'T DO IT!!!!

PS> Read a post called "Why do we torture ourselves" on this page.....

I wonder if myself or any guy can really get to 100%. Although I felt nearly 100% when I proposed to my ex. If I can get to 90% that'd feel pretty good. *laugh*
