PRE-ORDER FATHER YOURSELF FIRST TODAY!


What do you do when the man you love keeps hitting pause on the future you planned together?

šŸ’ After six years—three long-distance, three living together—a listener’s boyfriend still hasn’t proposed or started premarital counseling. She feels more like a roommate than a partner, while he insists they’ve ā€œgone backwardsā€ and need to fix their foundation before moving toward marriage. Now she’s wondering: is this a season to rebuild… or a sign it’s time to walk away?

We talk:

šŸ’¬ "When a man says ā€˜not right now,’ he often means ā€˜not you.ā€™ā€ – Glen breaks down what ā€œnot readyā€ really signals about a man’s heart and leadership.

āš–ļø How living together before commitment can blur standards and stall clarity about the relationship’s direction.

ā¤ļø Why comfort can replace pursuit—and what women lose when they stop being chosen.

🧱 Yvette’s reminder: ā€œYou can’t fix the foundation while living in the house.ā€ If it’s shaky now, marriage won’t steady it.

šŸ™šŸ¾ The difference between hoping he’ll grow and accepting he’s not growing with you.


Have you ever stayed too long waiting for someone to be ready? ā³ Episode 265 of How Married Are You? is live—tap in, share your story, and tag a friend who needs this convo.
