I'm going to be single again in about an hour. Wish me luck robots.
holy shit you're fucking insane. seriously? just bring it up and tell her it's super important to her. did you not read the millions of threads of people begging to be in your situation?

you're stupid, OP should dump this cumdumpster. Only reason she doesn't want marriage is because she's hoping for something better or has already found that something better.
You're reading it wrong; it's op that's pressuring for marriage. She's passively refusing, so I'd say drop it already, pump and dump.

Have you not discussed why she's not interested in marriage and you are? Maybe the ideological differences are easy to overcome.

Or she's against marriage for all the reasons robots are. Maybe OP doesn't want a prenup and she does. Maybe she sees no reason for the government to recognize their marriage. Depending on their state, they're probably already common law married anyway.
go to /adv/ or /soc/, faggot
So, here's what you need to do:
First, decide if being in a committed relationship, i.e. marriage, is something that you want rather than perpetually extending what you have now.
Second, if you decide that's what you want, bring up how you want a committed relationship with your girlfriend, and that you're not willing to spend time devoted to someone if she's not willing to be involved in a committed relationship with you. Ask her if she's willing to get married. If she says "not now", ask her when. Press her until you get a firm and specific answer from her.
If you're not happy with the answer she gives you, then break up with her.
It's been 50 minutes now. any update OP?

I left her apartment about 20 minutes ago. It was quick. A scab I knew I had to pull off. We didn't talk about the marriage thing for very long, though she did tell me the only thing I really needed to know ("You just aren't the one for me... I've known that for a long time"). It ended whenever she started to bring up memories from the past, I guess for closure or something. I just told her that I wasn't interested in pouring salt on the wound, told her goodbye, and left.
I just feel numbed right now. I don't know what kind of feelings will come later.
What the fuck are you doing here normie?
Fuck off.

Best of luck to you mate, it would've happened either way.
It's good that you did what you did OP. The recovery may take a while, but you'll come back.
