I am happy for everyone. I want to feel nothing but happiness for them. But you know what? I'm just a little bit envious too.
Here I am with a guy that I've given everything to for the past almost 12 years and I don't even have a stinkin' ring. How fair is that?
Months ago he said we'd get married at the end of this summer. We have made no plans, saved no money, never really talked much about it. I am supposed to just wait forever?

You must really love him though, I mean you've been with him for all these years. In the eyes of the law aren't you married because you've been together already over the period of time most states require for a common law marriage?
I think if this is something you really want, then you are going to have to be your own advocate on this and bring it up more and tell him exactly what you want and why.
He may not get how important it is to you. If you have a hard time openly talking to him about this, write him a letter and hand it to him and be very honest about all your feelings and needs in the letter.
I imagine he loves you very much too, or he wouldn't still be around.
I pray you two are married very soon.
God Bless.
Of course your envious!! You were promised a ring and the whole marriage shebang, but nothing has happened.
You have a right to be jealous!
Although, I'm a firm believer that things happen in their own time, so maybe the end of summer isn't the perfect time?
Hopefully it'll be soon though :D
I feel you girl - this is the season for weddings and those of us without the rock are the ones left wanting and wishing. Is it time for an ultimatum?
I completely agree with what lfhpueblo said. That was going to be my advice to you.
I know that you guys are happy together and you have children together, but it is important to you and it is important in the eyes of the law... let him know seriously how you feel, without whining or nagging.
Hugs... to you all!
