She left because I didn’t propose!

My girlfriend left me after we were together for almost two years because I didn’t propose to her. She said it didn’t feel as if I was interested in a long-term relationship, which was quite unfair because I kept telling her that I needed more time. It wasn’t that I didn’t love her or didn’t want to propose, it was just circumstances that made me wait. I had to be more financially secure, and I also wanted to see how we evolved as we got a little older before making such a commitment. I wish I could get back with her, but she doesn’t even respond to me, and I feel as if I have made a huge mistake. At the same time, it feels as if I am being emotionally blackmailed if I get back with her only by saying I want to marry her. What should I do?
It sounds as if you’re in the same position you were in when this ended, which means you still don’t know if you want a lifelong commitment with this person. If she doesn’t respond, there’s nothing you can do but accept that she is not going to be part of your life. If she does agree to meet, and you feel as if this is a decision being forced upon you, there is no telling when this can turn into resentment towards her, which isn’t fair to either of you. I suggest you sort out your feelings first, decide whether you are ready to make a commitment, and then try reaching out. This has to be your decision without external pressure, because it is only an unconditional desire to be with someone that will work.

I feel disrespected because whenever I make plans with my boyfriend, he changes them if his family members ask him to do something else with them. Am I being too egotistical to feel this way?
If you don’t like it, speak up and explain why. You may both need to adjust your priorities.
