no, one month doesn't seem enough. Mind you...i went on a tropical holiday for 2 weeks with a girl I had only kwown for a few days. I am all for rash decisions, but with marriage there is no hurry. At least make it a long engagement.

First, go a nice place.
Second, put one knee the floor.
Third, pull out the ring, and give it her.
Fourth, ask her marry you.

I'm with SpuriousMonkey, there's no reason to rush marriage.

If you intend on this person being your lifelong partner, marriage is something that happens at some point in your relationship, but it shouldn't change your relationship significantly. It's just a statement of committment, and this can be made in many ways. Buying a house together, for one. Why waste money on one big day, when it could go towards securing your future?

I've been with my girlfriend for nine years, and we aren't married. Don't see what it would achieve. I'm an atheist, so no church ceremony, it would have to be civil, and the the state becoming a third partner in my relationship is something I can do without.

So, what do you think marriage will do for your relationship?

Although I refer to my life partner as “wife” we are not married. We are 10 years together and we have 3 kids. We have nothing against marriage – we already discussed that several times, actually, but somewhat there were always more important matters. But being married would save us many troubles – before law, we are nothing but strangers. For every child, for example, we had to fill and sign special forms were we stated that I accept child as mine and she accepts that it would bear my name etc…

if you've been together for ten years and have three children, and you still can't figure out how to say, "wanna get hitched" i think you've already found the solution.
