YOU TOLD HIM YOU WANT TO GET MARRIED, BUT HE STILL HASN'T PROPOSED.
For the man you just started dating, we advise you inform him whether or not you desire marriage. This way you're aware if he does not want the same thing early in the relationship. Although, for the man you've been in a long-term relationship with, we feel you should not, nor should you have to let him know that you want to marry him. Traditionally, it has been incumbent upon the man to let the woman know of his intentions to marry. There is no surer way for a woman to know if her man wants to marry than for him to propose. But what about the woman who has been in a long-term relationship with a man who has never spoken of marriage, but she has grown to love, and wants marriage with him? What are those women to do?

ARE YOU A BRIDGE WOMAN?
First, you're asking yourself, what is a "bridge woman"? It's a phrase we coined to describe a woman who carries a man from the point in time where he's wanting to get married, to the point where he actually decides on the woman he will marry. Unfortunately, it's quite rare when those two points occur at the same time. Because of that, there is often, at least one woman that acts as a bridge between these two points.
Let me give you an example.

WHY MEN FEAR MARRIAGE: REASON OF THE WEEK.

WHAT IF SOMEONE BETTER COMES ALONG?

Despite how seldom, if ever, beautiful women approach single men, take their hand and lead them to bed, many men believe this will all of a sudden become a regular occurance once they tie the knot. "I would never get approached before I got married," a man told WMFM.com. "But the wedding ring on my finger, it's like a chick magnet. Now I can't keep them off me." Be this truth, or just "big fish" stories shared between guys, many men believe this to be an enevitability.

You're out there, you're dating, and you're looking for marriage material. But is he? Believe it or not, many men -- especially men over thirty -- do have the strong desire to settle down and embrace the marriage package. What stops them? How can you tell if the guy who's wining and dining you tonight has (somewhere deep inside his complex male machinery) the potential to make a lifelong commitment to you?

#1 Essence magazine bestselling author RM Johnson, who has brilliantly portrayed the provocative dance of the sexes in his acclaimed fiction, now delivers his first work of nonfiction, explicitly designed to shed light on the surprising secrets of the male psyche and unravel these timeless and perplexing questions: Why do men fear marriage? And what can you do to significantly increase your odds for finding Mr. Right?

Why Men Fear Marriage is the new dating bible, and it begins with one essential golden rule: If a man is interested, he'll let you know. From there, RM Johnson explains, with wit and honesty, what men really feel and talk about when it comes to looking for a life partner and tying the knot. You'll learn to recognize the five types of guys -- yes, every man fits one of them -- and discover how men's opinions of marriage are shaped in childhood...what men fear might happen after you're married...how men deal with your children from a past relationship...why some men see marriage as giving up control...when a man is really ready and when he's still playing the game.

Every page brims with advice women can take to the bank:

  • Ten steps to make him pop the question without an ultimatum
  • How to spot opportunities to meet marrying men -- at the gym, at the market, and elsewhere
  • When to take his phone number, and when to give him yours
  • How to let a guy down...gently
  • Where you should meet on your first date
  • An instant way to win his respect...and much more
  • Finally, this enlightening book will empower women to decide if a man is truly worth considering for marriage or if it's time to move on -- and, in facing the most important decision of their lives, to make the longest, strongest, and best match possible.
