tbh at this point you need to be real and have a discussion. if you dont want to get married you need to say something and see if your relationship will still continue, if you do then you should get on it.

worst thing you can do at this point is just keep stringing her along until shes X years old and has been dating you for a long time, asking when you'll propose and you saying "hmmmmm soon i hope" and basically wasting both of your time - her because she wants to get married & you because you could be with a girl that shares your views potentially.

if you have ring questions you can PM me or ask here because I bought one last year and know a few things, and for the wedding you dont have to spend 15 - 20k, thats a misconception. things can be done for much cheaper if you are willing to do more planning

This is a great answer, major respect to Romulox.

I want to say, though, if she wants to get married - why not propose to you?

I get that it's seen as a man's privilege or duty or whatever, but I think it's more in line with the tradition of proposal than asking a guy to propose first. In today's world, talking it through like Romulox suggested is a great way to do it, absolutely - but I wonder why asking someone to propose is more of a thing than proposing to the person you're asking in the first place.
