Oddly enough that's pretty accurate for me so far. I guess if I ever get divorced I shouldn't bother anymore.

Would she stop you from going on a trip? What would her being around prevent you from doing?

He’s in his twenties. Totally normal to not be ready to marry in today’s times
They need to spend more time to get to know each other. That doesn’t happen in 2 days a month. Most couples spend at least 4 times that
Someone has to take the risk and move. If she wants to, she should do it

If you're not ready, DON'T do it. I was in a very similar situation as you. I wasn't ready and got engaged anyway after 3.5 years. We were engaged 5 months did all the wedding planning and cake tasting, etc. Ended up calling it off, and it was NOT pleasant having to cancel the church, caterer, and tell people.

Ohhhh, the opening statement was probably correct. This sounds like your girl & those can be hard to find. A commitment now or one later will be no easier from what you say. Do a prenup & take the plunge now. Don’t be in a position to look back in a few decades saying I let the love of my life get away. This one will haunt you forever, regardless of what happens without her. Good luck, thinking it’s time to face the facts, grow up & commit.

How far apart do y'all live? I'd try it with her local. Depending on your religious/moral issues with it, I'd live together first too if you are thinking about marriage.

Not right at first but once kids enter the equation and all she wants to be a SAH mom.
That'd change things quite a bit financially as well as everything else.

I honestly cry for you and your generation. Do her a favor and just cut her lose so that she can maybe find a real man.
Go play your X Box or what ever you do with your time.

Itd never fly, she wouldnt do that because her family would disapprove.

You want to be able to do whatever you want. What if she wants to go with you? Are you against it? If you are not against it then:
Will she move without a ring? If so, let her move there. Try it out for a few months. See what happens.

This x1000 (with a *.) Be very very up front with her that you're good with moving in together but aren't ready to get married right away. If you don't give the relationship that chance you'll wonder "what if" in the future. My wife and I lived together a year, I flew from the midwest to Florida while I was preparing to move and she started her coaching career (I even drove all day from the MW to Athens to surprise her), got married the next summer, and a week later moved our stuff to Florida. It may not be "traditional" but living with someone answers a lot of questions. We almost broke off the engagement twice that 1st year, couldn't see enough of each other the year between, and our first fight after getting married was over me not having most of our stuff packed.
And about married life I was told something so true. That first year stick a jelly bean into a jar every time you stick something else in. Then take one out after that first year. If you run out you're one lucky SOB.

That's understandable for some. I'd suggest that y'all live close to one another for a while. Seeing her every day will be a lot different than once per month or whatever you do now.
Also, living with the opposite sex gives you an idea if you could live with them for 50 years. I've been engaged twice but married once. The first one drove me nearly insane when she moved in with me.
If you want to be single longer just tell her. I'd feel guilty having someone move 5 hrs away if I wasn't really serious. Don't be a dick.

I've told her a couple of times I'm just not ready now and that leads to "When will you be ready?" which I definitely get but have no answer to.

If she is ready and you are not, she is keeping her eyes open and will find someone who is ready.

Hence the reason I'm asking for advice.
